The map is so large.
We played with sizes even larger than this! It does take too long to get to any kind of action sometimes, depending on where the randomizer puts everything. That's something we could have improved on I think.
Personally I didn't mind the tank controls, I feel like it adds to the difficulty of the game, especially once you enter the monster zone and have a bunch of enemies shooting at you which is pretty fun! Especially once you start getting a bunch more weapons!
Thanks! Coding the weapons and their upgrade levels was probably the most fun part.
Was it really necessary to divide space into screens?
Also, what Freaky said about controls.
I think the grid space division was part of a literal interpretation of the "bounds" part of the theme, taking it as "boundaries" rather than a synonym for leaps.
Hi, i played the game and this is my review of it. Let's start of by saying that the game design is so bad, that i almost didn't play the game. Why not rotate with the mouse and shoot with the mouse too, Instead of there awkward controls? The game doesn't offer anything gameplay-wise. The art is also thrown together without much thought. There really isn't anything more to talk about because of how limited the game is. But nice try anyways, i like the idea! Kudos!
Edit: A main menu with control settings and a tutorial would have been nice too.
Hi. The controls mimic the layout of the original Asteroids game. Arrow keys can be used as well, but a controller is the most recommended option. There is a goal to the game if you stick with it, but yes it is more of a concept than anything. Thanks for playing.
Thanks for being such a good sport :)
