Well changing the variable type to SpaceWorld did it :D (thanks, I think that will help lots with my troubles with references!). However it doesn't like: 
    private void prepare()
    {
        castle = new Castle();
        addObject(castle, 300, 399);
    }
it doesn't like castle and says "cannot find symbol - variable castle". Aren't we defining the variable right now though? Or is it because there is no variable type given? Or am I just rambling?

I changed the code to 
    Castle castle = new Castle();
    private void prepare()
    {
        addObject(castle, 300, 399);
    }
Which should make it accessible, and I'm no longer getting said error. Let's hope :D.

Oooh :D! No syntax errors anywhere, I've reorganized my code and redid all of my references. BUT when I compile, nothing shows up and I can't run/act. It compiles without error, just won't run. Probably just something dumb I did :D. Ever seen this happen before?

Huzzah! Fixed it! It was as simple as this: It said it didn't like me accessing the non-static variable, so I changed this 
Ball ball = new Ball();
to this 
static Ball ball = new Ball();
and what do you know, it worked :D.
