Do you have a "wave" physics entity yet? Something like the force from an explosion? If not, might as well add one for the future, and then you can use it to make the asteroids get away from a spot. A wave would simply be an expanding circle where anything that intersects it would receive a force inversely proportional to the radius of the circle times the initial force.

Sometimes the simplest solution is the best. Why not include the ship position as input to the function that generates asteroids, and simply not generate asteroids when it's within X distance from the ship spawn?

SBS is experiencing technical difficulties. Our host provider has been having issues; we're just waiting for them to fix their system. We'll be back soon... maybe lol.

Your "vsync 5" is also a problem: you're forcing it to run at 12 FPS. Try "vsync 1" and use increments of 0.25 on the values if you need it to move slower. Also, keep in mind if you use fractional values, it may appear like the user isn't moving for a while, because you have to wait for the value to become 1 (probably not too big of an issue here)

Where's your GOTO? Anyway, the console screen (the place you put characters and stuff) is like a big grid: you can only place characters in specified slots. Since characters are more than 1 pixel wide, moving something around using the console will always look choppy, because it has to jump between all the slots. If you need smooth movement, you'll have to use a sprite.

Haha, that is funny! I haven't had time to work with SmileBASIC yet either; I'm hoping to be able to make stuff soon too!

Oh, Ramstrong! I haven't heard from you in a long time! I'm randomous from Nintendo Life.

This is a fun game and an awesome technical feat! I'll probably be playing it until Halloween ^.^

I'm not sure if you can post urls on Miiverse, but here's one: http://smilebasicsource.com/page?pid=42

This is awesome and so cute! I love the snowflakes on the menus and all the artwork!
