Game-Changing Insights: Three Questions Transformed My Game Jam Entry| Devlog

Asteroid
A downloadable game for Windows

The project I submitted to  GMTK 23 was terrible. It was an abysmal, shapeless mess, so I took a bit more time to try and make it better. I realized the root of my issue was that the game didn't answer 3 questions:

  1. What's the goal?
  2. How do you win?
  3. How do you lose?

I overlooked some pretty basic fundamentals there, right? With those questions in mind, I kept the parts of the original game that worked, and threw everything else out. With a few tweaks and modifications, I ended up with Asteroid 2.0! I don't know if this game will receive any more updates, but I am very proud of what it has become. I'd love to hear your feed back!

PS - as far as I know, no one has beaten the game yet, so you could be the first! Post a screenshot if you do!
