Marine vs Ghosts - Upgrade to NinjaBox =)

The game is no complete, but playable. I added a text doc to explain how to play.

The game might be good, but I can't really tell. Everything happens ridiculously fast on my hardware (Q9450), so I really just see red beams of death coming from rapidly-spinning ghosts.

Perhaps you should look into Time.DelaySinceLast() to limit the framerate, or use the interpolation time between consecutive frames to update at the intended rate.

=) =) I completely forgot about that. I will fix it. Regardless, you must have a crazy fast pc.

The Funny thing is that there already IS a function to limit the frame rate!

Ha ha. You must have a beast graphics card.

It's the CPU that's making it fast. I think Turing runs only on the CPU.

andrew is correct; Turing does not use any kind of 3D acceleration provided by the graphics card. The only hardware that really affects Turing's speed (beyond hard drive access) is CPU / RAM.

I have good components for both, but the game should still function at a reasonable speed.

(And yes, the graphics card is a still-pretty-decent-2-years-later 8800GTX)
