OPENGL

CLONE

--- Blowing up rocks in monochrome is still cool. ---

This is how arcade games should be made - easy to play, free-form (allowing the player to do anything, not like today's shooters, where the game moves for you), and just plain awesome in simplicity, with the potential to be challenging.

I started making this clone, because I could, and with the intention of making crazy things with it afterward. This may still happen.

With version 1 and 2, there is a sound problem courtesy of CSoundManager.

The Simple version -WAS- just an EXE file with all the sounds and graphics inside it. Nice and compact. This game may require DirectX 9. OpenGL acceleration is a must.

For the record, UACG means "Unknown Asteroids crazy game"

DOWNLOADS

Update: Simple, Build 3
-Powered by Engine 1 - better sound
*Shots are thicker, and collision detection with them is a little meaner (good, most of the time)
-Sadly, Simple is no longer just an EXE, but data files and SDL DLLs

Update: Simple, Build 2

-Attempts to be more true to the original:
*Saucers now have a different shooting method
*Shots are now 1 pixel
*800x600 resolution
*Asteroids spit into faster fragments
