Spiders and Spaceships

A moddable asteroid blasting adventure, soar through space as asteroids fling in from all sides! You'd better be quick and agile, because the asteroids will be increasing in speed and size the longer you survive.

Damage done to the ship will slow you down and break your ship down.

Using only your ship's sensors and your wits, can you survive the onslaught?

Notably, this game currently allows for the creation of User-Made maps and levels, in the formats of .txt and .png files that our players can easily share with friends. Remix the original maps or create your own, the game is in your hands!

To add your own levels, create a .txt file in the Levels folder, then add the name of the text file to the "LevelIndex.txt" file. The game plays the levels in order, so it will automatically load the first level.


Example script segment:

#This is a comment that you can use. It will make the game pause for 60 frames in-between commands.

pause 60

asteroid type small speed 177 angle 5

#Asteroids spawn in using radians 

asteroid type small speed 277 angle 5.1

asteroid type small speed 377 angle 5.2

pause 55

asteroid type small speed 177 angle 5.3

asteroid type small speed 277 angle 5.4

asteroid type small speed 377 angle 5.5

#The game also supports more generic commands, such as:

asteroid type large

#This will use a default speed and a random angle, so it will more closely mimic classic asteroid type games.

#I also have a working functional way to provide a force to the player's ship when they enter a zone, either pushing them back into the play area, or zooming them into another area: This example is used frequently in the official levels, boxing the player into the play region:

#The name determines which way the user would be pushed upon entering.

#sideways bottom
