Python Asteroids

A recreation from scratch of the classic arcade game. I've never actually played the original game, so have based this on youtube videos and talking to people who have played it

Game keys used are either Q for thrust, A for shoot and OP for rotation or Up for Thrust, Space for shoot and Left,Right for Rotate. H for hyperspace jump

The program requires PyGame and Python 3

Sound files all created by Torin Stephens

Tested and developed under PyGame 2.0.0 and Python 3.8.5 (Verified on 3.9 )
