Hi folks,

Some time ago, I wrote an Asteroids clone which was then revised for the rednose day projects some time back. Well, I thought it would be useful if I released the source on here for people to use as a guide.

This version does use the advanced interop part of DarkGDK.NET though, and therefore features more advanced concepts such as asset management etc.

Anyway, please feel free to download and play with the code, you are free to use any part of the code to whatever purposes you see fit.

Any questions or queries, please feel free to jump in here.

This one is FREAKING good: Design Guidelines for Class Library Developers http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/czefa0ke(VS.71).aspx

I've been a developer for over fifteen years, so during this time working on various development projects, it becomes common practice to try and abstract the concepts into classes and class facttories. The Asteroids class design structure was borrowed from work I did when working for a games company in Derby. It required looking at the game structure in terms of Asset management, scene graph rendering and various other methods for writing class code in this manner.

I thought it would be a good idea to post the code here so that the ideas and concepts could be borrowed for other people to use. I hope it's been helpful to everyone and yourself.

[EDIT] To add though, this source code really needs alot more documentation. It lacks function and class descriptors etc. An unfortunate side effect of getting the project finished in time for the Red Nose competition.
