Dark Star Survivor pre-Alpha

This is my first game developed in C with Raylib! It's pre-alpha and I hope to wrap up development in 2025. I'm working on this part-time as I spend time with my first child.

This game is a story-lite driven ASTEROIDS x VAMPIRE SURVIVORs style game. I hope to make a few more games set up in the kind of universe.

Controls use ARROW key

Use the Space Key to fire in the Asteroids like mode.

If you prefer to jump into a more Vampire Survive like mode - then hit the 'Roguelike' button...

I'm still working on the aesthetics and sound, but hoping to achieve a retro, pixel-art synthwave aesthetic.

v0.3 --- Initial Web Build and more (recommend playing on Desktop)

- added keyboard controls for the menu

- added web build with emscripten 

    Note, the web build has issues with music, and mouse scaling

- added particle effects

- began to add the implementation for the boss in the asteroids mode, noting that this is not complete

- Implemented Dear Imgui (C-imgui with the Raylib backend to support development)

- menuing clean up (main menu, settings, and pause menu)

Plans for v0.4 and beyond ---
