I must have missed this the last time around, but I like it, the stars
look nice. One thing I would suggest is to make the zoom a little
"softer", so it doesn't jump back and forth when you go too fast. Like
you could have it set up so that it only zooms back in if the ships are
consistently at close range for ~3 seconds. The way it is now is a little
disorienting, especially combined with the wrap-around edges.
