Mustang - Out of interest is there anything you like about it?
Rob - As shambler said, I just make sure the asteriods are well and truely off screen by a screen width or so. I also add an x and y offset as the ship doesn't stay at 0,0. Oh and you have to hideentity then reposition then show again or you get collisions!
Caff - The background currently is just a single sprite, this will get more interesting. There will also be other things not just asteriods.
GFK - A few people it seems don't like mouse so I'll have to include keyboard and joystick for the future.
Shambler - I'll have to look into the bump mapping thing although asteriods are not going to be the full extent of the game so I'll be concentrating on other stuff first. Good suggestion though.
Thanks for the suggestions... More welcome! This is a very early demo so suggest anything you think will improve it.
