| Cool missle effects. How about a first person space flying/shooter?Oh yeah, after a while I slowed down. |

| how a bout a space whack-a-mole. you could have an asteroid or moon in the middle with lots of craters all over it - mouse movement navigates around the sphere and clicking on a space-mole launches some homing missiles at it. doesn't have to be moles - could be green aliens or something. ...just a thought... I agree with CP though, there is something that causes terrible slowdown after a while, I haven't looked at the code or anything, but I suspect you are not freeing entities or something when the missiles are gone. |

| how far into it does the slowdown happen, i havent experienced it yet... |

| When you keep changing the target so a missile keeps flying around, eventually you notice it's kind of slow.  It seems to only get to a certain speed, however, and not slow indefinitely.  Maybe you coded something to make the initial missiles fast and then slow down a little somewhere? |

| after pressing space a lot, it slowed down with me too. |
