Functional Asteroids

=========

## Overview

A rebuilt version of my [Asteroids](https://github.com/philpee2/Asteroids) project, but this time

with code that is functional instead of object oriented.

Asteroids is built using the following tools:

* HTML canvas to draw the game

* [Redux](https://github.com/reactjs/redux) to manage the game state

* [React](https://github.com/facebook/react) to build all the UI that isn't in a canvas

* [Babel](https://github.com/babel/babel) to transpile JS and JSX

* [Flow](https://github.com/facebook/flow) to add type checking

* [Webpack](https://github.com/webpack/webpack) for module bundling

* [Aphrodite](https://github.com/Khan/aphrodite) for styling in JS

* [Keymaster](https://github.com/madrobby/keymaster) for key press handling

* [Lodash](https://github.com/lodash/lodash) for utility functions

* [ESLint](https://github.com/eslint/eslint) for linting

## New features

This version has the same features as the previous version, plus some new ones.

* The player has a limited number of bombs, which destroy every asteroid in the game.

* Instead of increasing the score multiplier with a powerup, it is now increased by hitting

  asteroids in quick succession.

* There are new powerups.

* The gun powerup causes the ship to temporarily shoot a three-bullet spread. Previously it would

  make the bullets larger and faster.

* The sound can be turned off.

* When the game ends, a new one can begin without refreshing the page.

## Running locally
