How to play

As you can see in the screenshot, you are the red rocket and have to save the world from the yellow invaders. To do so, you can use the following controls:

KeyboardAction
<kbd></kbd>Boost
<kbd></kbd>Rotate left
<kbd></kbd>Rotate right
<kbd>Space</kbd>Shoot

Compiling and running

Follow the steps on the hellorust website in order to set up everything. Besides the wasm32-unknown-unknown target, the post_build.py script requires python 2.7 and wasm-gc.

After setting things up, you should be able to compile the code using the commands below:

cargo build --release --target wasm32-unknown-unknown
python post_build.py

The generated wasm will be copied to the html directory and wasm-gced.

python -m SimpleHTTPServer

Try opening http://localhost:8000/ on your browser to check whether it works.
