LEFT/RIGHT arrow keys turn the spaceship. UP arrow applies thrust. Fly to stars to visit solar systems. Completed first-pass cleanup of Player Ship code. Made "Change Game Mode" block and reorganized the thread where we check if we should leave the solar system to have the camera sprite check if it's touching the player instead of the other way around. We seem to have a bug where sometimes we don't enter solar system mode when we fly over top of stars. Next we will refactor our Star code and try to find this bug.
This project is part of an ongoing video/stream series where we are making a game from Scratch. We stream every weekday from 12pm to 1pm EST on Twitch and we archive the videos on youtube. See www.builtfromscratch.net for links to the stream, video archive, and other details..
