Orbital Impact

Play this game as:

Applet Web Start Source

Click a tab to play this game!

<-- Click on the WebStart version to play!

`Controls:`

Move the mouse to aim your moons (hehe) and block the meteors from hitting Earth. Click the mouse button to start the game (and go back to the menu when you ultimately lose).

`What was your inspiration for the game?`

Pong was definitely the biggest influence. Also, suprisingly, Super Hexagon (have yet to play it D:) was a minor influence. I think it's the whole centre-of-the-screen-rotation-y thing that links them.

`Did you run into any challenges while creating the game?`

Minim was (surprisingly) fairly easy to use. The bounce physics took a few tries to get right (mostly my own incompetence and lack of forethought) but they're good now. Overall, a nicely stress-free game!

`Do you have any future plans for the game?`

I think this would be awesome on phones, and will probably be the first thing I play with whenever I get around to playing with Android. Also, highscore saving might be nice, as would an ability to tweet your score (Twitter4J looks fairly simple). Of course, if you want to play around with this, go right ahead!

`How are other people allowed to use your source?`

Learning, improving, messing, whatever you want. Just make sure to tweet me if you use my source for anything, it would be nice to know.

`How could your game be improved by others?`

However you see fit!
