grav2ty :rocket:

screenshot of grav2ty showing a spaceship, a planet, an asteroid orbiting and two projectiles

the most realistic asteroids-like game in existence.

controls

  • up/down: increase/decrease thruster power (ship acceleration)
  • left/right: rotate ship (counter)-clockwise
  • c: toggle centered view
  • +/-: zoom in/out
  • space: fire a projectile

roadmap

  • simulation of gravity
  • controllable spaceship
  • collision detection
  • make measurements more realistic
  • allow for zooming the viewport
  • Free viewport (mouse moved)
  • time scaling / fast forward
  • rework HUD, log additional info to console
    • Add speed to HUD
  • projectiles
    • Limit firerate
    • make projectiles self-destruct
  • performance improvements
    • don't calculate gravity to every little object
    • don't do collision detection at a safe distance
  • multi player support
  • Prevent library user from creating a broken state (by hiding lenses etc. if possible)
  • cosmetics (improved models, stars, …)
  • switch rendering engine
  • orbit visualization / prediction
