Astrovade - My first game. Evade Infinite Asteroids [Web]

I finally finished my first game ever, Astrovade! You can play it right here on Kongregate. Here are some images.

You control a ship and your goal is to evade an ever-increasing amount of asteroids. You can collect stardust to fill up your powerbar, which when full, allows you to unleash a screen-clearing shockwave that gives you bonus points for each asteroid destroyed. So, how long can you last? Kongregate will track your high score, survival time, and total asteroids destroyed.

This is my first Unity project and the first game I've ever completed, so while a very simple game, I'm quite proud of it. I created everything myself (graphics, music, sfx, etc) and used C# for the scripting. I also used NGUI for the UI.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated (good or bad)!

 

this game very very easy!
taht is why i like this game

 

Glad you like it!

 

Hey! Saw your post on reddit!

Fun game, I only lasted 36 seconds :/

 

Thanks!

And don't give up! Were you able to get the shockwave? It's pretty satisfying to finally get it and wipe out the asteroids.

 

Respect. This is a good game. Nice, simple and fun.
I lasted 53 secs.

 

Thank you. I appreciate the respect 53 seconds isn't bad for a first time, keep trying!

 

I lasted 1 minute and 16 seconds! YAY! Good game BTW its very nice, runs smooth, easy to understand. I would give it a 9/10

 

Thanks, I appreciate the feedback!

 

Good job and congrats on your first game!

 

Thank you!

 

The most frustrating thing about this is the stardust taunts you into chasing it and getting smacked by an asteroid. That and the fact that you taunt my failure . Very good game 10/10 for its simplicity and challenge, plus it's your first. Still working on my first aha.

Thank you, the stardust is definitely meant to be a risk/reward type of thing. I didn't want to make it too easy since the shockwave is pretty powerful. I hope you weren't too offended by the quips at the end! I kept going back and forth with myself about whether I should insult the player or not... but it's all in good fun. If you do stick it out longer the game will actually start to compliment you.

Also, good luck on finishing your game!

 

Good game !
I like it,but you still have lot of things to do I guess.

 

Thanks! I did have to cut out a lot of cool things I wanted to include in order to make it small enough in scope so I could actually finish it. However I do plan to make a bigger and better version in the near future.

 

Very nice and simple indeed. I lasted 56 seconds at first try. I am trying to move in rhythm with the music, and it's a kind of enjoying. Congratulations on your first game!

 

Thank you and I'm glad you're enjoying it!
