SpaceWars2.0: Famous Arcade Game Reproduction

Abstract

Space Wars was one of the most first and most influential arcade games. Produced by Larry Rosenthal and released by Cinematronics in 1977,
the game entertained the early generation of gamers and was a critical step towards the gaming industry that exists today. In my project I will
be recreating Space Wars in order to resurrect the historic game and give it the twist of being a three-dimensional game and played on the web.
The game will also serve as a model of particle motion in a three-dimensional gravitational field since shot trajectories are influenced by
a gravitational field in the gamespace.
