A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

About

A game where you pop bubbles with a spaceship. The bubbles burst into 4 smaller bubbles that move in a random direction. Inspired by the game asteroids (Wikipedia).

So far, this game has only been tested on 1 Linux computer (V1.01) and 3 different Windows computers (V1.0.0). Bugs are very likely, so please report them here (GitHub).

In-game controls

W/S: moves the ship forward/backward

A/D: rotates the ship counterclockwise/clockwise

F:  fires a bullet

Escape: pause the game
