Our first post, yay!

Hello,
Welcome to our blog. We, BulletProof Games, are very excited about this project and can't wait to start programming. We are going to base our game on the game Spacewar, which was released in 1962. Spacewar is one of the first games, made by Steve Russell.  It is a two-player game, where each player controls a spaceship and attempts to destroy the other. A black hole in the center of the screen pulls both ships towards it, making it harder to move and to avoid falling into it. In an emergency, a player can enter hyperspace to warp to a random location on the screen, but with a risk of exploding if it's used too often. Our game will be in 3D, with much better graphics than the original game. We are also going to add some of our own ideas and make it a multiplayer game. The game will be more thrilling and will have much better gameplay and more playtime. You will be able to upgrade your ship in various ways as well and be able to fight in spectacular space battles!
On our blog you can follow our progress and take a look behind the scenes (which involves lots of pizza and beer), so follow us, because we'll be back with more info soon!
