[Game Info]

This is my first Ludum Dare submission, entitled 'Star Supremacy.' A game where you take control of a sun, and navigate it to a red giant to create a supernova, trying to avoid the clusters of rock that zoom past you.

[Development]

To make the game, I used none other then Java's standalone library, photoshop for the art and FL-Studio for the music. The games idea didn't come to me at the start of development but rather 10 hours in, after I had scrapped my other idea for being too boring. As a result some of the code in this is very messy, and it created room for bugs and errors. Nevertheless the game's core is intact, so that is why I have submitted it anyway.

[Known Bugs]

-Audio completely doesn't work outside of eclipse (Runnable jar)

-After playing a match or two, the 'play' button doesn't reset the game.

-Keyboard input doesn't work on some versions of java

[The Future]

In the future I will continue development on this game, fix bugs, add new items and features perhaps. You can help me out by reporting the bugs.
