Vortex Breakers- DevLog 20

Vortex Breakers
A downloadable game

Next idea was an homage to one of the most iconic space shooters of all time, Asteroids. I tried to stay true to the original, but I added one additional layer of danger: when the smallest asteroids explode, they shatter into a hail of projectiles. To make this one work, I had to set a new position of the Vortex Breaker Crystal. The previous positions didn't really work, so I needed to set a 3rd position at the center of the screen. I'll probably use this setting again for a future level design.
