This is an Asteroids clone written in Elixir with Nerves, more for fun and learning than for anything else. Also since the code (and behavior) is relatively simple, I hope that it can serve as an example for Scenic, Nerves, and as a simple poncho project.
It is licensed under the 3-clause BSD license (see LICENSE) for details.
From the root of the repository run the following commands:
- Install scenic pre-requisites
cd play_uimix deps.getiex -S mix
Keys:
W- Move upA- Move leftS- Move downD- Move rightSPC- Shoot an asteroid
Use the mouse to target the asteroids (or your finger if you're running with a Nerves touch screen)
Have fun!
SchedEx is used to implement the core animation timer which runs at a rate of 60 frames per second.
Collision detection is incredibly basic and non-performant. Ideally either scenic or a cooperating library would implement some collision detector helpers. If you're interested in collision detection then please contribute to Scenic issue #91.

TODO:
- Get basic nerves install working on network
