It's really cool, the controls remind me a little of the game Thrust I had 
on my old BBC computer - I loved that game.  I can see this could turn into 
a really fun game to play too.  Good job.

For the whole frame rate / game speed thing, I recommend you read this 
article - it really explains very simply how to make sure your game runs 
exactly the same way (in terms of physics and speed) no matter what the 
frame rate is.

Not many people have 640x480 monitors anymore, perhaps you could make some 
higher resolution tiles and give the option to change the screen resolution?

I don't know what plans you have for the gameplay, but you could vary the 
colour of the tiles over a large scale (say repeating every 2000 units) so 
that the player has some idea to remember which parts of the map they are 
visiting - it's very easy to get lost because everything looks the same.
