Laserforce is a 2D top-down 'asteroids' look alike but with a twist.


In this game, you can only way to move, is to shoot, shoot in a certain direction and you will be pushed in the other, this makes for some easy to learn, hard to master controls, that feel GREAT once learned properly. 

In Laserforce, there is a maximum of 4 enemy ships that can spawn at a time, this is how their AI works:


Enemies move the same how you do, if they shoot in a certain direction, they will be pushed in the opposite direction,


When enemies are spawned, they will flicker for a few seconds, before locking on to you, if you arent in their shooting range, they will shoot in the opposite direction, to get closer to you, once close enough, they will shoot at you. 

This game also has a screen wrap, which sounds like a very useful feature, but beware! Disorientation might be imminent if you use it too much.

Enemies have a 1/10 chance of dropping these items:
- Health pack: increase health by 1 
- Upgrade pack: get the ability to shoot 3 bullets per click, for a few seconds.

Items that are left alone for 10 seconds will disappear, this is signaled by a flicker. 

If the player ship is hit, he will be invincible for a few seconds, use this time to your advantage and get to a safe space.
