Stellaria (Tech Demo) - The best MATLAB shooting game ever
编者注: This file was selected as MATLAB Central Pick of the Week
=============================================
Stellaria: A Figure-Based Space Shooting Game
=============================================
Stellari Studio, 2011.
Designed and Programmed by Mingjing Zhang
from
Vision and Media Lab @ Simon Fraser University
* Please note that this is a tech demo and is far from a completed game. *
* All I want to do is to demonstrate what MATLAB is capable of. *
* Stellaria features arcade-style graphics and MIDI music.*
About the Code
--------------
I wrote all code myself except for the midi synthesizer.
I apologize for the for-loop overwhelmed, global variable laden, poorly commented, ill-organized and therefore highly inefficient code.
However this is the best I can do for now.
Installation
------------
Put the folder StellariaTechDemo anywhere you like,
then Add StellariaTechDemo and all its subfolders in the search path list.
!Run stl_StellariaMain to play!
Gameplay
--------
Stellaria is just like the arcade shoot-em-up you have played before, except for the sad music.
Stellaria supports two players.
Each player has 30 lives and 3 bombs.
There are no power-ups, no boss, no score.
There is only 1 stage.
No text information will be displayed on the screen
The game can be slow when there are over 50 objects on the screen (For my i7 2.8GHz + 6 GB RAM +GTX480 computer,
this number could reach over a 100 without any significant frame dropping). Anyway, you need a better-than-average computer to play this game.
Control
-------
Player 1: WSAD - Movement, U - Fire, I - Bomb;
Player 2: DirKeys - Movement, Insert - Fire, Delete - Bomb;
You may skip the opening scene and credits screen by pressing 1 or 2
. They stands for 1 player and 2 players, respectively.
Graphics
--------
Most graphical contents used in this game are the creation of Hamukorosama.
You can find his works at this site:

Music
-----
The background music used in this game are composed by Shi Jin (Chinese: 石进)

Toolboxes
---------
The capability of playing midi music is granted by the MIDI synthesizer written by Kenneth Adams, Jr. at GaTech
This synthesizer is available for download at
http://www.prism.gatech.edu/~kadams6/matlab.shtml
The synthesizer comes as a part of Stellaria. You DO NOT need to download it separately.
The synthesizer has been slightly modified by the author of this game.
