Arcade top-down space shooter with gravity simulation and multiple weapons.

The game might take a while to load  especially if you load it for the first time. 
Works on Firefox  & Chrome, but not on Safari

Controls:

  • Mouse to aim
  • MOUSE LEFT to shoot
  • SPACE or MOUSE RIGHT to thrust

Alternative controls:

  • Aim with arrow keys or WASD
  • Shoot with Z
  • Thrust with C

Please note that some keyboards  don's support specific combinations like space + left + up or s + d + c

During development I learned  about:

  • Object pooling  to handle a lot of bullets
  • How to limit  rendering to optimize performance, no enemies function  if not rendered
  • Better code structure
  • Modular enemy design ( this could be expanded to all aspects of a game in future projects )
  • Physics raycast optimization
  • Dialogue and other  changing UI
  • Little bit about vector & hand drawn game art
  • Some audio production, I made the music myself
