🍪 Cookie Attack

Hi everyone.  Cookie Attack is my very first game project, developed while learning GameMaker and GML logic. It is a retro arcade space shooter where you pilot a ship, blast cookie meteors into smaller crumbs, and dodge fast moving cosmic hazards.

Since I am still learning game dev, I will be updating the game, tweaking mechanics, and adding new features as I keep improving my coding skills.

Controls

• WASD / Arrow Keys: Steer and move
• Left Mouse Button (LMB): Fire blaster
• Enter: Restart game (on Game Over screen)

Current Features

• Retro Arcade Flight: Smooth movement with screen wrapping.
• Tiered Cookie Asteroids: Shoot larger cookie meteors to break them down into smaller fragments for extra points.
• Dynamic Hazards: Fast rotating obstacles crossing the screen, blast them for a 200 point bonus.
• High Score Saving: Saves your personal best score locally so you can try to beat your own record.
• Custom Pixel Art: Hand-crafted retro visuals paired with classic arcade sounds.

Credits

• Sound effects built using standard GameMaker audio assets.

Thanks for playing and checking out my first step into game development. Feel free to leave any feedback, more updates coming as I learn.
