Pod Destroyer V.1.6

Share Collapse

Author Comments

Note: This game is VERY OLD and is only here for legacy reasons. This was my first playable game, but it's outdated and just plain boring compared to the games of nowadays.


Play as a (colored) asteroid and try to destroy the pod, the higher the level, the faster and harder the game becomes.


News:
-There is now a menu with some mouse options, to change the mouse color click the numbers then rollover the colors, click the "X" to switch between normal and trail mouse.
- Fixed the Pod movement, it's smoother now, and other little changes.


Controls:
Use the arrow keys to move the green/black/red/blue/yell ow/cyan/pink/white asteroid.


Drag the menu to open a menu, the buttons are: Pause, High/Med/Low (Quality), Bot and Mine.


Pause - Pauses the game.
High/Med/Low (Quality) - Toggles the rendering quality quality.
Bot - Creates another asteroid to aid you. (computer controlled, costs 1 point each 2 frames)
Mine - Creates a mine to aid you. (Click and hold to drag it, costs 50 points to create, costs 1 point each 2 frames to drag).

Great game!

Hah, that was a great game. I like how you got it to fire bullets in a way so that they WILL hit you if you keep moving in the same direction you were before.

Tips for players:
at the first couple of levels, don't use mines or bots, just hit them yourself.
at around level 35, the AI gets better, and you will be hit several times if your not careful. To avoid getting hit, rapidly tap your arrow keys. since the bullets are based on the current direction you're traveling in, at close quaters, you need to tap your arrow keys extremely fast to avoid getting hit.
At around level 40, the bot becomes usefull, since it will be greatly sped up, and you can avoid getting too close to the enemy.

not bad

it was decent, but i agree with the last guy, you need to have more boneses

NICE

ME LIKE
KINDA REPETATIVE AFTER A WHILE THO
MAYBE CONSIDER ADDING BONUSES EG DO THE LEVEL WITHIN A SERATIN TIME,DONT DIE UNTIL LVL 20 ECT..

GREAT GAME

this is an awesome game, and not just because i made it to level 147, but becasue it was very addicting and i really loved how the stars started going faster as the time went on, around level 147 the stars were going so damn fast i coudn't tell what was the enemy what was the enemy fire and what was me i also liked how your own speed picked up as time went on, great game, loved it!! make more please! :)

T'was okay

Okay here is my review:

PROS
*Very addicting
*Good idea of going blind when shot
*Color option was nice
*Little extra such as mine and bot was cool
*Increasing difficulty

CONS
*Not much animation
*No background music
*No offense such as weapons
*No change of scenery
*Got frustrating (though you can't help that...)

Suggestions
*Add more extra choices such as weapons or stat upgrades
*More detailed vehicles
*Change scenery for like after 10 levels
*If you add music PLEASE make an option for turning it off

Good job for the most part!
