| Yes, yet another asteroids type game. :) This actually started out as a learning exercise for me with blitzmax and just kinda turned into a game. I’m having a blast and any suggestions would be cool. Btw, I love the classic vector based games – hence this starter project for me. http://www.glensworld.com/battlespace.exe The screen shot doesn’t really capture it well. I’m really after game play comments anyway. Thanks!  -Glen |

| Screenshoots! |
| ||
| Yep! I never download anything without a screenshot. |
| ||
| VERY NICE! |
| ||
| pretty cool, asteroids/shootemup/space battle thingy :) |
| ||
| Screenshots?! |
| ||
| why not just go out on a limb and download it? |
| ||
| That's really good! Good work! |
| ||
| why not just go out on a limb and download it? Nah! It's the principle of the thing. ;-) |
| ||
| Has this been molebox'd? Nothing happens when I try and run the exe. |
| ||
| Not bad...Controls feel just right... |
| ||
| Thanks for the comments. I didn’t include a screen shot at first because it doesn’t really capture it well. Also it is not flashy looking like a lot of games here! I’ve learned a lot with this project and have a few other “vector based” type games I want to make. It’s a ton of fun really. -Glen |

| big10p, what is molebox? I'll search the forums... Nope. I did use UPX as recommended in the forums. big10p, could you test this windowed version? http://www.glensworld.com/battlespace2.exe -Glen |
| ||
| Hey it's neat, nicely done! :-) |
| ||
| Nice retro feeling, and I like expecially the enemy AI. Well done, keep on ! Sergio. |
| ||
| Glen: windowed version works. Nice little game. ;) I'm into vector GFX myself at the moment. Are all the GFX and text in your game true vectors, or are some faked using rotated/scaled images? |
| ||
| The rocks and ships are faked (the thrust graphic is not). The text is all drawn. I tried drawing everything, but couldn’t get the code worked out to rotate it properly. I will still work on it though because its ultimately what I want. Thanks! -Glen |

| Nice. The asteroids need to be bigger though to look better and to make it easier to distinguish between them and some of the enemies - and add a sound as an enemy comes onscreen. At the moment everything is the same size and colour. Coming along nicely though. |
