Source code for "Galactic Pursuit" (whatever specific game that is) is not publicly available. Commercial/educational game code is proprietary. Sharing it would violate copyright.

How to Learn & Build Your Own Space Chase Game

1. Pick a Stack

• Beginner (Python): Pygame / Arcade. 2D, simple, great tutorials.
• Intermediate (C#): Unity (2D/3D). Visual editor, huge asset store, exports everywhere.
• Advanced (C++): Unreal Engine / Raylib. High performance, steep curve.
• No-Code: Construct 3, GDevelop — browser-based, event sheets.

2. Core Mechanics to Prototype

1. Player ship: move (WASD/left stick), shoot (Space/RT), boost (Shift/LT).
2. Enemy spawners: waves, formations, paths (bezier/spline).
3. Projectiles: pooling, collision (layer mask), damage, knockback.
4. Scoring: distance, kills, combos, multipliers.
5. Upgrades: fire rate, spread, homing, shield, bomb.
6. Boss: phases, patterns, weak points.

3. Learning Resources

• Unity: Unity Learn (Free) → "Create with Code" → "2D Arcade".
• Godot: Official Tutorials → "Your first 2D game" (Dodge the Creeps).
• Python/Pygame: Real Python, Clear Code (YouTube).
• Game Jams: Itch.io Jams — 48 hr themes. Best way to finish a game.

4. Open Source References (Study, Don't Copy)

• GitHub: space-shooter — 2000+ repos.
• GitHub: shmup — bullet hell patterns.
• Godot Demo Projects — official, high quality.
