Rockoids 1.0

Rockoids 1.0

My LowRes Coder interpretation of the arcade classic “Asteroids”.

Use left, right and up to maneuver your spaceship though the asteroid field.
Use A to shoot.
Use B to use hyperspace – but beware, you could be transported onto a rock!

Start the game with A for easy mode: the ship is getting slower after thrusting (friction).
Start the game with B for hard mode: the ship holds its pace like in real space (no friction).

Clear the asteroid field to go to the next level.
Difficulty increases every 2000 points: more rocks appear, rocks spawn nearer to your spaceship, rocks get faster, UFOs appear earlier and target better, later on small bad ass UFOs appear.
When you take too long to clear the asteroid field large or small UFOs could appear. UFOs target your spaceship or any rock – so no camping! :-)

Scoring:
20 big rock
50 medium rock
100 small and rock
200 large UFO
1000 small UFO
In hard mode scores are doubled.
You get awarded an additional life every 10000 points.

High scores are persistent thanks to LowRes Coder 3.2 :-)
