Uses pygame.\n\n![Screen Shot](./screenshots/screenshot_001.png)\n\n## Install\nClone this repository using git or download and unzip\n\n## Requirements\nThis program was devoloped using Python version 2.7.8 and [pygame](http://www.pygame.org/wiki/about) version 1.9.1. However, it might run using other versions of Python or pygame.\n\nYou will definitely need a copy of pygame installed along with its prerequisites. See [pygame.org](http://www.pygame.org).\n\n## To Run the Game\nChange directory into your main space-ranger folder:\n\n`cd ./space-ranger/`\n\nLaunch the start_game.py script with Python:\n\n`python start_game.py`\n\n## About the Game\nThis game has six progressively more difficult levels. Evade asteroids as long as you can. Collect the greenish gems to increase your score. Shield powerups will replenish some of your spaceship's shields. Your highest score achieved is tracked, but this does not persist from one program session to the next.\n\nSteer with the direction keys, WADS, or the mouse. Select from two types of weapons using the 1 and 2 keys. The escape key exits the program. \n\n## License\nCopyright 2015 Michael Stockman.
