    here is a ballpark guess of what scale I think these things will be on your screen

    If I know my topdown shootem up correctly I would say they will be lots smaller. Almost half that size, so you could have hordes of enemies and gazilions of bullets/lazers/bombs/explosions on the screen at once.

    yea, I think normally they would, but I'm planning to have say . . 6 enemy ships on screen max, it's going to be a bit more tactical than your average space shooter.

    I'm also judging by my 1600 x 1200 screensize, I guess I should have made the image the size of the whole game screen.

    A tactical top down space shooter? How will you do that?

    I changed a few things on the old ships and redid the scale with the size of the image being the size of the game screen. Gotta get started on some new ones.

    i think it may look better if maybe just the enemy ships were maybe even 3/4 the size, just a little smaller

    Nice new spaceships!

    I especially like the white dots on the wings of the blue ship...

    They are both nice though
