🪐 Pygame Asteroids

A simple but fun clone of the classic Asteroids arcade game, built using Python and Pygame. This project was created as part of the Boot.dev game development course, and includes basic physics, shooting mechanics, and splitting asteroids!

🚀 Features

• Player-controlled spaceship that can rotate, thrust, and shoot
• Floating and splitting asteroids
• Collision detection and basic physics
• Modular code structure with OOP design

🛠️ Requirements

• Python 3.7+
• Pygame

Install dependencies with:

pip install -r requirements.txt

▶️ How to Run the Game

After installing requirements, run the game using:

python main.py

Use your keyboard to control the ship:

• 🔼 Up Arrow — Thrust
• ◀️ / ▶️ Left/Right Arrows — Rotate
• Spacebar — Shoot

📚 About the Project

This game was built as the final project for Boot.dev's "Build Your Own Asteroids Game" module. It demonstrates the use of Pygame, object-oriented programming, basic game physics, and a modular file structure.
