AsteVRoids Room Scale Game

A VR re-imagining of the classic Asteroids game from the 1970s.

I have stayed as close as I can to the original 2D version, whilst transplanting the mechanics into 3D room scale so that it works in VR.

Graphics

The game is rendered using wireframe models for a style reminiscent of the original vector based graphics, with the models updated to 3D.

The original single 2D screen has been updated to a full 3m play space within virtual reality. You do not need that large a room to play the game, but you can walk around however much space you have to get a better view of the action!

Gameplay

The warping from one side of the screen to the other has been updated to warp the ship to the opposite side of the play area no matter which side the ship exits from.

Controls

3D rotation of the ship is handled by rotating your controller in any direction. The grip button activates your thrusters, and the trigger button activates the laser.

Sounds

The classic sounds keep the feeling of the original arcade game, along with 3D positional audio help you locate your ship and enemy UFO within the room.
