Started a remake over the weekend with original artwork and I'm pretty satisfied with the results so far. Originally I was doing a cartoony version but got carried away with the detail.

This is a WIP thread, but at the same time I'd like to ask if anyone would be willing to draw a spaceship or knew of some decent royalty free ones I could use. I'd like the ship to have a few different side weapons that could be interchanged for various weapon upgrades. Any takers?

Here's an early screenshot, the different bullet systems are somewhat in place and collision is complete.

I can model the ship in 3D and render it from different angles, if that's what you want. As far as different weapons go, I'm not sure I can help you. Here's a ship you can use.

Thanks but I think I have my ship now. I modeled one and will just use 2D pics of that.

I never said anything about FPS. This asteroids game is really just a test bed for the weapon system I wanna use in another game.

Added a new weapon that causes a massive shockwave.

I used a shader. Im still trying to make it so it only effects objects in the foreground, but I can't find a simple way to clear an image. (im using the image kit)

I like the style. It would be good to change it into something new like a mining game where you get gems from the asteroids. Then the gems fall into a Tetris game up the corner. Then you are forced to fit the gems, and avoid the asteroids. Two handed control type thing. Then the Gem lines give you your weapon power-ups.

so play asteroids and tetris at the same time? I've tried to play tetris against myself in a 2-player mode, it's not that easy!

It's not so hard with jewels because you don't have to rotate them. That gives you just enough time to look at the Asteroid area. Plus you collect the gems with the ship so you get to choose the gem sequence, and see the colour in advance of it dropping down. All you have to do then is choose the lane that it drops down in.

Looks good so far Phaelax.

I suggest speeding things up, because right now ship movement, weapons and shock wave are sloooooowwww.
