Asteroids! (beta). Quite well done, if i do say so myself :)

-----------------------------------

I originally made this a LONG time ago, but decided to go back and redo it. well, im done, and i've added a lot of features. 

i'm still looking for things to add, so ideas would be helpful. also, please post about any glitches you find in this thread. 

download and extract the attachment somewhere then run the .exe. 

also, if there's any demand for the source, ill post it.

i think the problem was that i was running it through WINE ... i just tried it out again, and im quite impressed! 

theres a bit of lag in the instruction menu when nothing is selected.  I enjoy the spaceship chasing the cursor. 

Good job

hmm, lag?

i've never experienced it myself, can you be a bit more specific?

i'll try to fix it if i can.

the spaceship ceases to move quicky whilst the cursor isnt selecting any box in the information section of your game. Otherwise, very well made.

gotta say man, I really like the control scheme in the tutorial better. It was unique. I was kinda disappointed in the main game when the arrow keys were used

good suggestion. i've added "mouse mode" and a variable to stop the ship from teleporting from side to side when using mouse mode. 

be warned: it's hard. real hard. 

you can change to mouse mode in debug mode. 

also, CompWiz333.. i seriously have no idea why it would be doing that for you ( i don't recieve that error) so i included the code in this package, maybe you can see what's causing that? (the problem would most likely be in the into_loop procedure and/or instructions procedure. both are very close to the bottom)

latest version is here:

Only problem i had with it was that the bubbles dont die right away, but get so small that it gets hard to kill them!

This is awesome! I'll play it regularly! I do agree that you need a mouse mode though.
