A downloadable game for Windows

ASTEROIDS ! is a Gosu Game Jam 5 project ! The theme was : Asteroids. The game was all done using Ruby and the Gosu Gem.

Controls

  • Press Arrow keys to move the spaceship.
  • Press Space key to shoot a laser
  • Press Enter key to use a Bomb that will clear all the screen !

An asteroid will kill your ship on contact. It will split in two pieces if a laser hits it and if it is still big enough to split in half.

If it was too small to split, it may give some reward bonus : extra life or extra bomb. A good strategy to get the best score may be to split as much asteroids as possible before using a useful bomb... and get bonuses !

Install instructions

You can either use the .exe version to launch the game if you're using a Windows system, or the .rb version if you do have Ruby and Gosu gem installed.

The executable may result as a false positive on some antivirus software. It's a common problem using Ocra to generate some executable from Ruby.
