As others have said, some more variety and some more dynamic controls (acceleration, gravity, etc) would be great, but everything is here and works great.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>By the way, if you're looking for a better host than dropbox, you might check out the free Java hosting I offer at http:\/\/StaticVoidGames.com.
