Asteroids Rebirth.
A strategy/metroidvania spaceshooter.
Based on the arcade game Asteroids.
With the help of Shaun Spaldings tutorials.
Asteroids.pngPlayer shooting blue bullets, so the Player can't destroy the red asteroid.
Dont get in a deadlock, so the strategy part is that you have to have some grey asteroids flying around in case you cant destroy big asteroids.

Sorry, I won't play games that come with an installer ... please consider switching engines, or creating a portable version that is playable without installing a thing.

Really fun, I like the asteroid like gameplay. Just one thing : make bullets more visible.

Changes the installer to a zip file.

A nice game! You can never go wrong with Astreoids and I think the color matching added a nice twist to it! I got to 7400 score before I ended up in a deadlock (I had only a single yellow asteroid on the screen and my ship was shooting blue bullets, after ~30-45sec I just quit the game)

Some feedback:
1) The instruction texts were a bit too long for my taste (after ~3rd page I just continued forward without really reading anything)
2) Increase the size of bullet color indication on the ship (it's quite hard to notice if you're moving fast)
3) Please allow holding of shoot button :D

All in all a good game! Well done!

I played a bit and then didn't have the right color to move forward so I was stuck. Also, probably should have renamed the exe to not $½project_name]. Good effort though!
