OpenGL Game Project

Pew Pew Asteroids

This is a project I did for a past University class. It was a solo project I worked on over an 8 week period getting introduced into openGL. I learned a lot about managing my time and how to organize a project as this was both my first game experience as well as my first time creating a personal project. There was a heavy learning curve trying to understand openGL in a self-taught environment class, but by the end of the project course I was happy with what I created within the time constraints!

Rocks_1 Rocks_2 Rocks_3

Whenever I get the time, I would love to add the aspects I didn’t have time to finish like:

  • Sound
  • An Ammo Tracker
  • Score Board
  • Upgrade Screen with purchasable upgrades
  • Fix red outline on asteroids
  • Add different style lasers
  • Add different style rocks
