Thanks for the reply :)
Actually Im in college and Ive been doing java as a hobby since 96, never
had a class in it till this semester. Me and some friends are trying to
make a tile/(insert buzzword) engine for java. We know there is plenty
out there but were starting from scratch. We are trying to make a version
of games like Starcraft using java. Has anyone worked on such huge
projects... can java even hope of handling 2000+ images moving at once...?
Any help on this is good help :)
