"Knock the Asteroid" is a football game set in space. It will be based on my two popular games "Spacewar" and "Spacewar2".The game will be played in teams of one or two players who control their own spaceship. The goal is to knock the asteroid so that it crashes into the opposing team's home planet. During the game, various special powers will appear that for example makes you bigger or the opposing team's planet bigger. The ships will be costumizable with different colors and shapes. Two players will be able to play on the same keyboard in any configuration and probably even against the computer. There will also be a campaign mode where you can unlock new ships, backgrounds, planets and asteroids. As soon as possible I will also add an online mode where everyone can host and join matches, with and without ranking. Due to server maintenance there will probably be a one time fee for those who wants to play online.The developing will begin right now and I can't see any things that would stop it.
I have only got one question, would you pay 5$ to be able to play online if the game offers what i promise here. There will only be one time fee. If you want to try the older versions of the game to see how fun it is just follow the links in the top of this post. Sorry for the bad physics in the old versions, but in this newer version version they will be correct. In both of the older versions player 1 steers with the "WASD-keys" and player 2 with the "ARROW-keys". In the second version, press "Enter" to start the game and "ESC" to get back to the main menu after a complete game.
As soon as I have something to show you i will post screenshots here and even a link to the game. The first 100 people who replies to this post with their wanted "Knock the Asteroid-username" will get the online mode for free when it is released. I will continue to add new features for free until the game is completely done.
Every time i show people the older versions of the game they get impressed of how fun it is to play so i think it is worth trying.You can contact me at
[email protected] if you have any questions. The game will be made in Javascript, compatible with all major browsers.
Progress 10%I have now made the first steps on the game. The library that will be used to develop the game are now updated for handling elastic collisions. The library is made by me and the new and current version can be found
here.
Progress 15%The server for signing up and logging in is now working. When I update the game to 20% you will be able to sign up, but not to play. That will probably be today or tomorrow.
