Asteroid!

Asteroid was a 2D game using C++. The aim is to get the highest score you can. To do this you just have to survive by shooting the asteroids or dodging them as they fly towards you. The score increment will increase once a frame, and displayed on the death screen when you die. I kept the controls basic to what most gamers know, with the up and down arrow being the movement controls and the space button being shot. The mouse controls are used for the menu screens to make it easy for the user to control. I tried to make the game a more of a retro space shooter, and to do this I chose sprites that looked slightly more 16-bit then the modern sprites. I also chose music that would be more fitting for a retro game, as well as the sound effects for shooting and explosions.
