This project has been on hiatus for a bit but I recently picked it back up and I'm happy to announce that a playable demo is now available. Chiron Mining Co. is an asteroids-type game where you blast asteroids to collect resources. You can then trade these resources in to acquire upgrades for your ship. You'll need them as you progress through the levels as the asteroids move faster and each level adds unique twists and new challenges.

I'm fairly new to game development and eager to hear feedback on this beta release. Thank you in advance for your ideas and suggestions.

Hi. I played your game and recorded it on a video. It was fun. I love such games. However, I did not like that I had to restart the game from the beginning when I die. Also, I think that it would be cool if such game had some sandbox elements like going to places and selling ore, getting better ships and more different powers. :D If you want me to delete the video, let me know. However, if you like the video, I make similar videos every day. I will be happy if you subscribe. Anyway, I enjoyed playing your game.

Thank you very much for taking the time to download my game, play it and make a video. That's the first time someone's done that with my game! My son thinks I'm a total rockstar!

I've definitely been thinking about changing it so when you die, you just restart the level not the whole game, so your feedback was helpful. I definitely want to expand the game to give it more of an explorer feel where you choose which sectors to visit, etc.

I subscribed to your YouTube channel. Thanks again!

Thank you. I had fun. :D Soon, I will release a website(as a school project) soon where small developers like you will be able to show their games, and other people will rate it. I will play every game posted there on a video with commentaries. :)
Also, the site will have weekly/monthly challenges where you and your games will get awards. Game ratings will decide who gets the game of the week/month/year title and can show it off on its other pages. I hope to make game development more fun. I make games myself, and I know how difficult it can sometimes be.

Hello,

I've just released version 0.6 of Chiron Mining Co. It features three new levels, revamped artwork, new music, and many, many other improvements. You can read more about these improvements in the devlog and download it here. I've also created a new gameplay video.

Thanks in advance for your feedback and constructive criticism!
