About Game
The Asteroids game is a classic 2D arcade-style video game
where players take control of a spaceship navigating through
space.
The objective is to survive and earn points by shooting down the
asteroids.

User can play by using three keys:


● ‘W’ for thrust
● ‘A’ to rotate left
● ‘D’ to rotate right
● ‘S’ to shoot
init() Function:

● Initializes the game environment.


● Sets the background color.
● Configures the projection matrix using
gluOrtho2D for 2D rendering.
● Initializes the player's spaceship with its
position, angle, and thrust.
● Creates the initial set of asteroids with
random positions, angles, and sizes.

keyboard() Function:

● Handles keyboard input for controlling the game.


● 'w' activates the thrust, causing the ship to move forward.
● 's' fires bullets from the ship's current position and direction.
● 'a' and 'd' rotate the ship left and right.
● The ESC key can be used to exit the game.
main() Function:

● The main function:


● Initializes GLUT and sets up the game window.
● Registers callback functions for display and keyboard input.
● Initiates the game loop using glutMainLoop .
Physics and Collision

Physics:

● Bullets move at a constant speed (BULLET_SPEED) in the direction specified by their


angle.
● The ship's movement depends on its angle and thrust, with a speed of SHIP_SPEED.

Collision Detection:

● Collision detection between bullets and asteroids is done using the distance formula to
check if the distance between a bullet and an asteroid is less than the asteroid's size.
● When a bullet hits an asteroid, the bullet is marked as inactive (active = false), and the
asteroid is removed from the vector.
● The player's score increases by 10 points each time a bullet successfully hits an asteroid.
