Attack of the Vectors

HOW TO PLAY:
Arrow keys to move
Space to shoot

This is a work in progress I've been doing over the winter holidays. It is a simple, 2d arcade style shooter with simple vector graphics. It is pretty much a geometry wars clone.

I just needed something to work on to keep me sane over the cold months, and also wanted to prove to myself that I understood superclasses and inheritance, and get some practice in for code cohesion etc, after an atrocious piece of code submitted for a group assignment last term.

I am very happy with some of the code done, but there is still some awful code lying around.

Please do submit any comments, suggestions or bugs you find. I've released the source code too, but please leave credit where it's due if you decide to use any of it, this is all my own work unless stated otherwise.
