AstroYeet

Race through a dense asteroid field to escape your pursuers with their top secret research data. AstroYeet is similar to an endless runner, but it's more of a high-speed chase.

You have to evade asteroids while getting shot at from behind. If you go too slow, your pursuers will attack more frequently and accurately. Go too fast and you'll crash into asteroids.

Controls (Xbox360 controller / keyboard):

Left Thumbstick / Arrows / WASD : Move left and right

Right Trigger / Spacebar : Speed up

Left Trigger / Ctrl : Slow down

This is currently an alpha release early in development (as of 8/3/19). It's missing many features and improvements that are planned for future releases. It's also using some placeholder assets. Even so, I'm happy have you playing it and giving feedback! It will help prioritize the stuff I work on next.

You can follow active development on GitHub HERE.

AstroYeet was shown at Lawrence Tech University Expo on April 20, 2019 and at Boston Summer Play on July 26, 2019.
