hey all, im tryin to make a very simple first person shooter kind of star wars game lol

if anyones ever played the original version on an arcade machine or MAME, then thats the kinda thing i want to do, probably simpler than that actually.

ive designed all my menus and everything, just now stuck on how to make an object and move it around the screen.

ive thought about using just an image box with a picture in and getting that to move but dont think it would be any good.

anyone else got any ideas??

cheers Smile

To move an object around the screen you can just set the left/top properties... Then you'll need collision detecting though for shooting or something like that.
