A Trip Through The Asteroids
*** THIS IS JUST A TEST TO SEE IF MY CRAYON ARTWORK COULD LOOK ACCEPTABLE IN A GAME ***
The first big test is:
I drew some artwork with crayons, photographed it, and made it move on screen to see if this idea has any merit.
I like the end result. It's a unique look, I can do it, and I think it will work.
There isn't anything to play here, it's just a look at how the game might look.
I'm still thinking through how to have the rocks wrap-around. It seems like what I have works, works, works, fails and I'm not sure why. That's what prototypes are for! When the wrapping works, I like how it looks.
The panel on the right will show what power-ups are active and other useful information. It also serves to make the gameplay area have a 4:3 aspect ratio. 16:9 seems too wide for a game like this.
