Hmm lots of comments here since I last checked... haha. Anyway I'm noticing lots of calls for having the ship automatically shoot. The only problem with this is if you use the lasers it's usually best to save up your shots and fire when guys are actually in front of you, kinda like sniping. In fact, it's be darn near impossible to play the game with the laser if it did automatically fire. For that lag thing, as far as I've been able to see, that's a flaw with XNA. For some reason if you repeatedly slide your finger left-to-right and back right-to-left a couple times it kinda freezes and you can't move right until you move left again. It doesn't even register the button as having been pressed! Not much I can do about that except hope they fix it in the release.

Hmm...then how about play/pause (or the center button) activates the laser?

Still one of my favorites, even after nearly a month of being deployed on my Zune. +rep

Darn you for making me wear out my thumbs! : p While automatically shooting would probably save my thumbs, I definitely see why you're reluctant to do it... It's totally up to you, as it's your game.
