Everyone who has flown a spaceship into outer territories before is familiar with this situation:<\/p>\n

Suddenly you are engaged in a wild chase with a notably larger pirate or whatever ship, and the only way to escape is a near asteroid field. And you know you’re screwed good, because in order to get out of this mess you need to charge your jumpdrive capacitors, which will take about\u00a010 seconds<\/em>, leaving you with no shields and weaponry for the time being! So while you’re dodging asteroids and laser blasts, you’ll have to find a really good time to start the charging procedure. What a messed up day!<\/p>\n

…still …charging!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Real moving asteroids, yikes!<\/p><\/div>\n

This will (hopefully) become my first LD48 entry, and so far it’s been a lot of fun! I’m using MonoGame and am currently getting Farseer Physics up and running for some sweet asteroid collisions.<\/p>","time":"August 24th, 2013 5:20 pm","title":"Still Charging, Still Coding\u2026"}
