[Completed] Jovian Gasbags

[DeltaF1]

Finally, I finished a game! I haven't been able to finish any coding projects, but I've completed 2 this month!

It's an Asteroids clone I made for #1GAM (One Game A Month). Along the way I created a Lerping system (Linear interpolation), wrote my own gui code after fussing around with other libraries for several hours, and learned to love. *cough* learned how to use LOVE. The controls are fairly intuitive, Arrow keys/WASD to move, Spacebar/Control to shoot, escape to pause, M to mute the music. Leave feedback, bug reports, etc.

Itch.io link
There's a windows build and a .love file hosted there. The .love is the "Linux/Source" option.

Nice love-powered screen! Self-made?

I never noticed losing lives, because I was in the center. An additional sound might help in your next game.

I liked the 'get moved to center' animation, that was kind of cool.

In a later text, it crashed:

Hmmm, I'll try and recreate that stack overflow bug. I'll also add some more sounds for hitting asteroids and getting hit. The way I spawn asteroids they shuoldn't be spawning on top of you like they were in the video, I'll look into that as well. Thanks for the feedback, and thanks for letting me know about the bug!

The love-powered screen was made by Larscii30, found in this forum post. I'll add him to the credits if I make a bug-fixed version.
