Breakout clone - BETA

>Scrolling backgrounds, starfields.

If you mean like dynamic backgrounds, thats possible, actually very easy, as easy as swaping the current background image for a animated one then doing that.

And a starfield was my original idea, but I never got to it. Does anyone have any code you would share for a active starfield ?

>Shrapnel when a brick breaks

I was actually doing a explosion image with glass shrapnel in photoshop, but i held myself back.

One thing i hate with programming is timing stuff, I think i need to build a type to handle animating stuff to make my life easyer.

Infact, speaking of timing, i'm getting frusturated trying to get a hover noise to play ONCE per session of hovering over an image.

maybe someone could help?:

						Case "play"'play button id, just a test before i add more

								PlaySound click

					End Select

			If fry_EventID() <> fry_EVENT_MOUSEOVER
				freshhover = True
			Else
				freshhover = False
