[FINAL] Asteroids 1.0

[shutout5591]

This is a remake of the classic game Asteroids and should be pretty self-explanitory.

Controls:
Left/Right - Turns ship
Up - Moves forward
Down - Slows ship down
A - fires
B - Pauses

Changes from Alpha:
Fixed ship movement for better control from player
Gave ability to mute in-game sounds
Removed FPS counter
A few minor tweaks!

Changes:
Fixed bug where player data didn't reset after each round
Added ufos that randomly spawn
Optimised game speed
Fixed bug where round X would have X-1 asteroids

Other Notes:
* Special thanks to YourSavior who provided images of the ship, asteroids, and bullet.
* I used the ScreenManager and some sounds from AlienGame

I hope you enjoy playing it as much as I enjoyed writing it. And, as always, let me know how it goes.

Sweet. Good job on the update.

I would recommend open-sourcing this and releasing it under a formal open-source license (the GPL and BSD license are good choices). I understand that you want to have control over your code, but open-sourcing your code is good for the community and the community open-sourcing its code is good for you.

Continuing to release a .ccgame package is a great idea, since they're much easier to deploy - just release a source package along with it.

Great game thanks for releasing a classic game like this. It will probably keep me busy for a few days. Keep up the good work

Can you update your .ccgame package to make it compatible with XNA 3.0 final. When I try and open your .ccgame file I get this error message
Error when trying to unpack a "XNA Creators Club Game Package" - XNA Community Forums

Try running it right away instead of saving it.

You need to get the XNA 3.0 final from creators.xna.org That will allow you to open it.

Which is right here: Download details: Microsoft XNA Game Studio 3.0

Do you get any error messages or something?

Try using a different browser. If it's not working with IE, try Firefox, etc.

This post was a little negative last time, so...for the good points!\

• Better than what I can do
• Hard - I like it (or I just suck)
• Feels like the original (I own it)
• Ummm....The game is in two colors primarily (w00t on color conservation! - So is the original though...Lol)

Also, I was just wondering about the source, but it doesn't matter I guess...
