Back in the Apple ][ days, there was this cool Space War game. I've wanted to recreate it for many years, so I thought I'd try it with Scratch. The biggest thing Scratch is missing for this purpose is the ability to dynamically create objects. However, I still think it can be done - I just have to pre-create and manage them. This version is just the beginning; creating the primary weapons systems and movements. All it has is a ship that moves from one planet to the other, firing a large missile as it draws near, then circling the planet and firing a smaller missile. The target planet fires back. I've set the Earth Power to a false low number so that the ship has a good chance of destroying it before being destroyed itself - just so that you can see the effect.
