Space Rocks

Space Rocks

A simple homage to the retro classic Asteroids made in Unreal Engine 5. Making this game was an experiment to make a 2D game in Unreal - going against what the engine is mostly geared towards.

Features:

• Hand drawn 2D pixel art
• Asteroids, Explosions, retro sound effects
• Physics-ish flight model for the spaceship
• 10 levels - that repeat with ever increasing speed
• A high score score board to track your wins! 
• A pause menu where you can change the volume (fancy!) 

I started making this game in late April and finished the game in June - about 2 months of dev time. This was mainly accomplished by sticking to the basics of asteroids and keeping the scope down.

I am hoping to use this as a jumping off point for another 2D top down space game with a few more interesting features and polish. Stay tuned!
