Press C to shoot
Press X to hyperspace (move to random X location)
Powerups
- Green ball - dual lasers
- Blue ball - drone
Enemies
- Small, big spinners - will destroy your ship if hits the ground
- Ufo - will shoot at your ship, look out
Asteroids, there's lots of them, shoot them down and rack up your score. If they land, they will take some score away!
Somewhat of a Demake of Astrosmash. Let me know what you think.
Planning on adding a level system, more powerups, highscores, better sfx and gfx. Will attempt sprite rotations, but we'll see how that goes :)

Hit X to start, and X again to engage with a Dreadnaught.
In game,
Up, Down, Left, Right - to navigate the Hyperfighter
X to shoot lazors
Z to drop bombs
This is a 'demake' of the Dreadnaught Factor, as I remember it from the Intellivision days.
The Dreadnaughts are a threat to your home planet Terra, and you need to destroy them before they reach the stargate. If they do, they will destroy the planet (oh noes).
The goal is to destroy the Dreadnaughts by bombing the vents, each Dreadnaught has 16. Once destroyed, you move on to the next Dreadnaught.
Tip: Destroy the engines, to slow down the progress of the Dreadnaughts.
Tip: Destroy the towers to reduce the rate of fire by the Dreadnaughts.
Keep in mind this is a work in progress. Updates to come, comments welcome. Thanks!

Right - Move Paddle Right
When in the Piconoid start screen

Goal is to hit the bricks, and clear them all before advancing to the next level. There are 9 levels (more to come).

Finally, again a HUGE thanks to LazyDevs for putting out the Breakout Hero tutorials. I wouldn't have made it this far this quickly without them. And Huge thanks to the community for a whole lot of other tips and tricks.
Any feedback and comments about the game, gameplay, the code, etc... would be great.
Enjoy : )
