Another Asteroids Clone v0.8

Thanks again to my buddy DrZ for this newspost:[br][br] Daniel Forest, who you might know as Kamjin on the forums, has released a new clone of that classic arcade shooter Asteroids. Here's some info about the game from Daniel:[br][br]"You start with 4 lives, and have about 5[br]"auto" shield per ship, extra lives are awarded[br]at certain levels. Color of the ship indicates[br]how much shield is left.[br][br]Game difficulty increases with every few levels."[br][br]And here's what's currently missing from the game:[br][br][br][br]Enemy AI is almost there, for both the good old UFO[br]and tiny group fighters.[br][br]Explosion animations, and Enemy ships.. need to be drawn (ran out of graph paper)[br][br]Background Music or Sound needs to be added.[br][br]Some collision Bugs.[br][br]Throttle limiting has a bizzare bug so I removed it for now.[br][br]Score is kept, just not displayed. (have to draw the vector numbers)[br][br]Remove the "Auto Shield" and implement a shield button with [br]a bubble animation around the ship. [br][br]Download from DC Homebrew

Hi Wraggster, could you change the name of the programmer in the AAC newspost to "Eytan Kaziberdov" instead of it being "Daniel Forest"?

Eytan e-mailed me the news yesterday but forgot that the name that would appear on the e-mail would be his brother-in-laws & he only referred to himself as "Kamjin" in the message, so a bit of a mistake was made in my post.

Thanks Wraggman.

Ehh, wouldn't have made any difference if you had of written something different, you still wouldn't have known that Kamjin's proper name is "Eytan Kaziberdov" & not "Daniel Forest".
