Asteroids Deluxe

Remake of the 1980 Asteroids Deluxe arcade game by Atari, as close to the orginal as I can get. #retro #arcade #vector

Space to fire, down arrow for shields, up arrow to thrust, side arrows to rotate. P to pause. M to mute background audio track if you don't want it to play, after game is started.

I've added Xbox 360 controller support. Use the Right Left on D-pad or Left Stick to rotate. Use A button to fire. B button or right bumper for shield. Right trigger for thrust. Start for new game. Menu for pause. X to mute background music.

I made this game as both a tribute to my love of 80s Atari arcade games, and to learn the raylib library in C++, using raylib 4.5 release. This version is as close to the orginal as I've ever gotten. I played the game for hours while making it. I also found more information on the orginal making of the game. I have a new handheld with the Arcade ROM so that helped too. No pixels were hurt during the making of this game.
