I've added explosions in the more recent version (though at the moment they
look as fake as the ships. =) )

The camera jerks were due to the fact that the camera is looking_at the
average of all the ships' positions, and when one ship dies, that averaged
vector changes significantly. This has been fixed for future versions. I
should be posting an updated version soon (with 3 times as many ships!),
once I get some explosion position problems worked out.

Cameras attached to ships will come later =)
