I have turned my 2D space shooter game into a project to develop a 2D game engine. 

[see Asplode!, An XNA Twitch Shooter for description and code related to this.]
 
Lately I have been reading a lot about game architecture and event based systems.  I coded an event manager which takes events from all of a games subsystems( AI , GameView/Human Input , etc...) and processes these events.  I also spent a while coding a process manager which manages all game processes such as updating, rendering and a bunch of other little things.  I wanted to code my own GUI but I think that feature will have to be put on hold until I get the core stuff down.

Main.java, Ball.java, ThreadRunner.java (see attached source code, change extension from .txt to .java): Work in progress: three classes that define drifting balls (2D ellipses) that bounce off the walls.

HelloWorldMouse.java (see attached source code, change extension from .txt to .java): Draws with text at the cursor position. This is the version we hacked at the meeting to write "Hello World" in one of two languages, depending on cursor coordinate.
