HazelRoids

A not-so-simple clone for the game Asteroids from the 1980s.

This repository is used for educational purpose, serves as a demo for making a game using the Hazel game engine.

With this project, I want to test and show off the ability to link an executable project with Hazel static library externally. With this, you can have several different Sandbox game/application linked against Hazel at the same time, without the need to keep multiple copy of the whole engine source code itself.

Gameplay

• Press Left/Right arrow key to turn ship left/right.
• Press Up arrow key to accelerate and Down arrow key to decelerate faster.
• Hold Ctrl + R for a while to restart the game (there will be indicator appear).
• Press TAB key to toggle (Imgui) debug/info gui.
• You can shoot down enemy UFO's bullets.
