I buit a FLASH Game. [Star G Revisited]

[Ryex]

but... but... your in space... there shouldn't even be friction. i should of made it so you have to press lightly in the opposite direction to stop

Just checked it out and awesome job Ryex.

now, on to the quote.  Yes you are in space.  That doesnt mean that you have to apply real world physics.  For example, space has three dimensions.  So you could technically fly above or below everything on the two-dimensional game platform.  Also, since when are the boundaries in space?  Fly off the screen in any direction!  I could go on, but my point is that games are not supposed to fully reflect the real world.  They are supposed to be entertaining.  Part of that is a control scheme.  Playability for your game will go way up with some friction and a projectile speed, as well as more manuverability(by which I mean faster acceleration).  My final suggestion would be to add sound effects.

Great job anyways.

but there ARE sound effects or do you mean to the movement of the ship...

any way if you come back any time in the future this will be revamped into Star G 2! made with AS3! it will be WAY better I promise

Alas... I don't think I'll be remaking this for a long time. action-script 3 is just too different! I some one who knows action scrpt three can help me I might give it another go but I've wasted enough time for now.
