SPACE WAR - New 2-player arcade game

Be among the first to play my new 2-player arcade game

SPACE WAR

http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/BoltBait/3137060_med.png

This is an "old school" arcade game.  I put MANY quarters into a similar machine at my local arcade when I was a kid.

This is based on the Asteroids game by user SonicPopsDad.

Check it out:

It's a great game but the asteroids don't explode when I shoot them. Is that a problem within the code, or is it a problem on my side?

Re: SPACE WAR - New 2-player arcade game

I based this game on Asteroids by SonicPopsDad.  I had to change the asteroids so that they wouldn't break apart when shot.  I did this so that you would always have something to avoid and hide behind while trying to shoot your opponent.

It is working as designed.

Re: SPACE WAR - New 2-player arcade game

I want to hear from anyone who has played this with another player.

Who did you play against?
Who won?
Did you both have fun?
Should I make more two-player games?

Thanks!

Who did you play against?: My bro
Who won?: Me. :3
Did you both have fun?: Yes! It's really a good game!
Should I make more two-player games?: Yup! But next time can you make them a bit more complex or something?


Goodbye 1.4. I'll always remember you and treasure your awesomeness in my heart.

Re: SPACE WAR - New 2-player arcade game

Just a quick update today.

I added some extra keys for firing.  Player one can now use S or F to fire and Player two can use L or down arrow.

This should make single-handed play easier.

Boy! Getting "love it" clicks is hard with a two player game.

(Not sure I'm going to make another one.)

Go on to this project and click "love it" if you want me to make more two player games.
