HowTo: Create black holes with LeftMouse, then wait till it attracted enough asteroids, point somewhere else and press RightMouse to shoot.

This game is set in space and your only goal is to destroy the spacestation in the middle by shooting asteroids at it. You win by destroying all rings and turrets, the rest does not matter.

Music:
The Background soundtrack is called "Indian Poison" made by Unknown Logic, check out this and other tracks on his soundcloud page:

Performance:
The game can be challenging for laptops and you have around 1500+ asteroid actors spawned that are all rotating and moving around. Its all done as a prototype with no actual code but only blueprints and is far away from beeing implemented for nice performance.
It runs nice & smooth on my Geforce GTX 665M on my laptop though.

Creation:
This game is created in Unreal Engine 4 and took roughly ~30 hours of active development (per teammember).
Everything is build from scratch except one or two textures and the soundtrack. Many things even though half done unfortunately didnt make it yet.

We have timelapse videos of the whole creation process of this game and we will cut and upload when we find time to do that.

TO BE CONCLUDED:
We will make a polished version of this next weekend and things to expect are Hud, Challanging play, fixing all the bugs + making the enemy base fully destroyable, actually give the green platforms a use (eg. standing on them will speed up asteroid spawns around it and make them spawn bigger ones with a bigger maximum limit).

Great graphics, but the right mouse button didn't do anything...

Thx for the feedback, right mouse works only after a black hole is spawned via left mouse (2secs).

I wish we would have had one more day for the developping to include all functions like "real" respawn, HUD, Stats etc.
(try pressing "tab" or "m" for Xtras :D )

Really good looking game, the black hole mechanic is cool, but needs a crosshair on the screen so you can aim properly. Couldn't find where the hitbox was for the last turret :x

we will go on with the project if the feedback will stay so positive :)

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I can't tell if i'm doing any damage, I saw some purple rings disappear, and then after that nothing.. I am jumping in space so thats a little confusing =) UI doesn't seem to update either. But it does look great, needs some polishing though gameplay wise.

Game is a bit laggy. I had to come back here and read how things work, could of used a brief instruction display.
