A downloadable game for Windows

Space Rocks is a work in progress that I am uploading to record my progress as an aspiring game developer. Made in GameMakerStudio2 using stock assets.


Fly around space and shoot the asteroids!

W / Up Arrow Key -> Accelerate

A / Left Arrow Key -> Rotate left

D / Right Arrow Key -> Rotate right

Space -> Shoot

Made using this playlist along with a few tweaks of my own:

~Personal changes from the video~

  •     Shoot with SPACE, not LMB (Left mouse button)
  •     Starts in full-screen
  •     Can switch to windowed mode with ALT-ENTER
  •     Windowed mode can be maximized

~Roadmap~

  •     At least two power-ups
  •     Game pad Controls

~My own plans~

  •     3 lives and then game over
  •     Recording the high score, and saving it for the next session

Install instructions

Just extract the file and play. It is possible that Windows will interrupt it when you first run it because it doesn't trust it. You can safely click 'more info' and 'run anyway'.
