Dangerous Orbit

Dangerous Orbit is a badly made, unabashed ripoff of Asteroids (copyright Atari, 1979, although they have not taken any legal action against the developer at this stage). Gameplay is exactly like Asteroids, although there's some pickups added. This looks and feels like someone's game development homework. Everything in the game is asset flipped, but there's nothing unethical going on with this one, as, remarkably, the developer has properly credited the people who actually did the work to make this "game". Kudos for that. Unfortunately doing one thing right doesn't make one a talented game developer. There's a lot of problems with this Asteroids ripoff. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. A choice was made to use obsolete, decades old retro pixel "art" as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics. It's unclear if this is due to lack of budget or talent, regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low as a result. There's no options to change the resolution for the game or customise the graphics settings. There's no way for gamers to ensure this is running at the native…

Okay, this looks and feels like something someone would make in about an hour following a "How to make an Asteroids game" Youtube tutorial... The resolution is locked, and worse yet is locked into a super old 4 x 3 square resolution for the old 90s monitors before widescreen monitors became mainstream. Why you'd make a game in 2019 with this resolution is mind boggling, but why you'd sell such a game for any amount of money is even more mind boggling. The game itself is okay, but way too simple and again terrible design choices were made by the developer of this. He makes you use the "Right CTRL" to fire and "Space Bar" for special attacks, but this would have been 100 timers better if he tied them to the left and right mouse button. This should be on itch or gamejolt for FREE as a persons first game to allow other people to play and critique his first ever game, not here on Steam with an actual price tag. NOT RECOMMENDED. Even playing this as a free game from Gamejolt would typically only be done if you wanted to help the kid who made it out or were his friend, family member etc. It's just not nearly enough to be a "complete" game.
