Asteroids

Goal:

Destroy the asteroids and UFOs, pick up powerups, that improve your weapon, and avoid dying.

Controls:

You can always remap the controls in the pause menu.

• W - accelerate
• A - turn left
• D - turn right
• S - brake
• J - fire
• K- deploy turret
• L - deploy heavy turret(costs 5 regular turrets)
• I - teleport
• P - pause/unpause the game

Powerups:

All powerups only work temporarily, but can stack with each other without limitations. Also, the fewer powerups are lying on the field, the higher is the probability, that a new one drops(health powerups don't affect the probability, though, so you can only pick them up when you need them).  The outer circle around the powerup indicates how much time it still has until it disappears.

• - doubles your firerate.
• - health powerup, restores one hit point. Doesn't overheal you, though.
• - turret powerup. Adds an extra turret for you to deploy.
• - triple shot. Adds two more bullets to your shot.
• - explosive shot. Makes your bullets explode into six when they hit an enemy.
• - magnet. Attracts powerups towards your ship.

Description:

Originally this was meant as an example project for my entity-component framework, Spork. But over the time it kind of went out of control due to feature creep and the fact that I was new to this architecture. So now I wouldn't recommend anyone use this game's code as example.
