Arcade action survival game in a tiny galaxy.

Beware the meteor...
Java 1.6 application.

1 bug in this version: Music does not loop really well.
The web version is exactly the same than the java one in term of gameplay (no enhancement), I just did technical code to make it works.
1 bug fixed after the end, to get the original jar submited: https://github.com/downloads/vcarluer/LudumDare23/tinygalaxy.jar

i like the way you picture the cloud...
Thank you mailman105.
Hume if you had 44 points you were level 5, it is the second tier of the game which becomes a little bit harder ^^ In fact it is where it starts to become more arcade. I certainly will implement level selection in final game if I continue it.
Thinking the game would be nice with some enemies that actively chase you and also more meteors and also more enemies, yeah.
Music is catchy.
Fun game! I got 54 points, I think I got more than that on another try, but I pressed H thinking it would pause the game but apparently not D=
I didn't redo it, it uses GWT to convert it. But it pulled some restrictions I had to handled (about opengl 1 & 2 for example) and I was interested to know how to do it.
Html 5 will be much more deployed than web start or applet (for example for chrome market, facebook...) and it is important for me to find a good lib to make game for it.
You are right goal is not really clear, it's a scoring game so the goal is to score... ;p I didn't give much indication on how to play (bridge creation mechanism, kill mechanism...) on purpose because I like as a player to discover how things work, but it's kinds of an old school way of doing game ^^
It misses a good story too to be introduce into game which may give some goal indications.
I would've liked some a bit more concrete object. Perhaps you should have a limited amount of the bridges and then you should collect more of them?
I also managed to box myself in with them with no way out :P
It could give a new gameplay like the snake game which could be fun :D I would see (and it may solve performance issue i have with Android version ;p)
For now I have no way to prevent blocking yourself and I don't know if it is usefull to do so. 2 ways: compute blocking path and prevent user to do it... Have a new key to destroy bridge, but i wanted to keep the gameplay simple and blocking yourself can be a strategy!
Really fun, I enjoyed it! I like how the planets that pop into existence have atmospheres. If you do continue it I'd like to see how it turns out! :)
I will try to make the gameplay more obvious when game starts because I have a lot of people telling me they do not understand what to do...
I had to play it from your website.
Nice little game, interesting mechanics.
