Finding Pluto Game Project

Finding Pluto is a web-based game that I developed with a team of my peers. The user controls a small spaceship navigating through space. The objective of the game is to navigate various mazes while avoiding obstacles, to eventually reach Pluto. Users traverse the various levels using arrow keys, and the speed and momentum of the spacecraft is utilized to familiarize users with a simple example of vector addition, to successfully complete the game, users will have to consider their relative speed and utilize momentum to avoid obstacles. Besides the 10 base levels in the game, users are able to design and publish their own levels for others to play, in addition to creating a profile that will track their created levels and high scores.
