How to build a fast paced space shooter based on the classic arcade game Asteroids, but with Lemons! In this second part of this Scratch tutorial we cover enemy Lemon spawning and movement, and delve into the slightly complex world of clone to clone collisions. We also look at making the lemons split into pieces when destroyed. That leaves us with the exciting explosion flashes, screen shake and more for part 3!
Wondering why Lemons? Well, Lemons were the first fruit to have achieved interstellar capability and are thus attempting to take over the universe. To tackle such a scenario we obviously need to fight back with rapid fire lemon busting lasers!
