Introducing: Asteroids!
In this map, you defend a space station from an endless onslaught of asteroids and enemy ships. This is an early version of the map, and it's only been in development for 6 days or so at this point, so it is a little barebones. I have left the DebugUtils lua library on, as this is map is still in alpha/beta/whatever. I have also left the map open source for now, but strictly for learning purposes. I'd greatly appreciate not circulating your own versions of this map. (edit: just occurred to me that I did use some custom gui functions in this map that I have not yet included in my Extended GUI thread yet, so dm me for those if you want to look around at the map's internals)
All of that being said, I do intend to keep actively developing this map when I can. In the meantime, have fun shooting giant rocks!
Features:
-WASD Movement (with collision) for all player spaceships
-Primary Fire system(press space to fire)
-Asteroid movement system
-Enemy alien ships
-Secondary fire (auto-homing laser turret, manual cast rocket cannon)

I found some planet models in hiveworkshop. Because the movement in outer space makes me disoriented. It would be great if you put it on a map. we will have the feeling of moving between planets.

This helps you with the models, skins and icons from Hiveworkshop: Resources in use by Asteroids!
You can also upload your map here to generate a list: Asset scanner
Awaiting Update.

- A credits list in the map thread description is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated too.
- A detailed changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.
- Map thread tags are important. Please use those that fit and not more or none.

Played it with some friends, was fun but like only for the first 2-3 minutes. The game gets repetitive and nothing really changes. At some point you can upgrade your fire-rate and rotate in the middle and kill everything in the map as it spawns. It's not really PvP or PvE. The controls are smooth and environment is nice, but I feel like the gameplay is missing a purpose.

Yeah, that’s fair, although I have added enemy ships and a boss fight in recent versions, as well as a range limit on the main gun so you have to keep moving around instead of sitting mid and shooting. I know there’s only like 7 minutes of gameplay total so far, but I do intend to keep adding to it to keep things interesting. Perhaps I jumped the gun on uploading the map to hive, I was just real excited about it
