Large meteors are headed towards the Earth in all directions. If just one meteor crashes into the Earth, the whole world will explode and all life on it will die. All you have are two blockers to stop the meteor from destroying the Earth. You have to control the two blockers to stop the meteors in its path. The Earth's survival is in your hands. CONTROLS: (read first!) WASD for Protector 1 Arrow keys for Protector 2 Press the space key to start a new game, even in the middle of a game. Alternatively, you can press the play button. HOW TO PLAY: (read first!) Move the blockers to destroy the incoming meteors on impact with it. If you fail and the meteor hits the Earth, you lose! Read below for the controls. Meteors have randomised speeds. Occasionally, power-ups will appear to help you. They also are travelling towards the Earth. Use either blocker to touch the power-up on impact to collect it and its effect will take place. If you fail and the power-up hits the Earth, you will NOT lose, but you will not collect the power-up. Each meteor destroyed will give you 100 points.Try to get as much points as you can! The higher the score when you lose, the better you are! Power-ups DO NOT give points if collected. If you are about to die, fret not! Press the i key to activate an emergency force field You start with one but can collect more at the rocket power-up! You can set the world high score -------------------------------POWER-UPS--------------------------------- LIGHT BLUE: A force field will appear around the earth to shield it. All meteors that crash into the force field will automatically crumble! Lasts for about 15 seconds. When the force field appears, all meteors inside it will also crumble. If a power-up touches the force field, it will be collected and its effect will take place at the same time. PURPLE: For a short period of time, all meteors, when destroyed, give double points! WHITE: A rocket leaves the earth in search of valuable minerals and materials hidden in faraway asteroids. As you zoom through space, to control the rocket, press left arrow to move the rocket to the left and press right arrow to move the rocket to the right. Each asteroid collected gives you 10 points! You start off with 100 fuel. You can collect fuel along your journey, but if you run out of fuel, you will be sent back to earth. You can increase your fuel by collecting the rainbow orbs, which restores 5 fuel for the small one and 10 for the big one. If you collect a purple power-up here, your score will be doubled for every asteroid collected! You can collect force field orbs here, which allows you to use 1 more force field each. TO CONTROL THE ROCKET: Press left arrow to move the rocket to the left Press right arrow to move the rocket to the right

I cannot change it as the problem lies with the scratch program. It does not affect the game, but if you don't like it you can refresh the page and the problem is solved. -Sometimes if you collect the rocket power-up more than once, there may be too many clones of one asteroid. I am trying to fix this. ---------------------------------{CREDITS}---------------------------------- Graphics sources: Earth: http://barsoom.wikia.com/wiki/File:Earth.png Background: http://www.howtogeek.com/61540/desktop-fun-starry-skies-wallpaper-collection/ Earth explosion: http://bestanimations.com/Military/Explosions/Explosions.html Meteor explosion: http://opengameart.org/content/explosion Power-up explosion: http://svn.gna.org/svn/wesnoth/branches/fendrin_editor/data/core/images/halo/ Meteor and asteroid: http://opengameart.org/content/asteroid-rotating Sound: Meteor breaking http://opengameart.org/content/bombexplosion8bit Earth explosion http://soundbible.com/1983-Atomic-Bomb.html (edited) BGM (in-game) http://opengameart.org/content/through-space BGM (Start screen, Score x2) http://opengameart.org/content/rainbow-rush BGM (rocket exiting earth) http://opengameart.org/content/space-music BGM (rocket) http://opengameart.org/content/a-journey-awaits--lemon42 (edited) Special thanks: Special thanks to the following website for helping me convert music to mp3: http://www.online-convert.com/ Special thanks to @jsstrn for helping with some basic coding and being an awesome teacher!:) Special thanks to my dad and siblings for contributing some interesting ideas and supporting my game!
