Thank you. I think tweaking both of those makes sense.

Yet another ship-in-space game!

Video / Project page http://billiam.github.com/meteors/
Sauce: https://github.com/Billiam/meteors

Builds:
Win32 build: https://github.com/downloads/Billiam/meteors/meteors.exe
Os X build: As soon as I get a machine to test on. I had rake/releasy building it without error at one point, but can't verify that it actually works.

Gameplay:
Shoot space rocks, avoid crashing

Controls:
Arrow keys for turn and thrust, space to fire, left shift for bullettime(name to be decided).

Notes:
This is my:
* First game
* First gosu project
* First ruby project
so all feedback is welcome, no matter how nitpicky. I'm trying to suck less at this.

Known issues:
* Ruby crashes after closing the app. -- can't fix. Can be recreated with a hello-world gosu app that loads an audio file.
* Controls are not configurable
* No help text

Having some trouble with the play_pan method in Windows, and I suspect I'm doing something wrong.

A pan value range of  -1 to 0 gives increases volume in the left channel, with zero sound in the right. When it crosses the 0 threshold, there's an abrupt change to full volume in right channel only.

The pan values appear to be correct. (floats in the range -1.0 to 1.0).  This is the behavior with mono wav files. Trying to pan a stereo wav has no noticeable effect (full volume in both channels).

Any idea what's going on here?

--edit: Also seeing this with gosu/feature_tests/SamplePlayTest.rb

You can also disable the 'typo' inspection in settings. I find it gives false positives more often than not.
