Orbit Game

A simple game I made with SDL in less than 4 days in a game jam challenge.

💭 About The Project

I made this game back in May 2021 as a submission to an international game jam competition held by my University. This project uses C++ and the SDL2 library. I also did the graphics and artworks from scratch, mostly on Paint.

The premise of this game is guiding the moon away from the falling asteroids (and the world border) only using the gravitational pull of the Earth, which is your cursor. That's it.

There is a known bug feature in which I tie the physics to the framerate, rather than to time. So, if you run this program in a system with faster screen refresh rate, the game will run very fast.
