Hi Jim, For the distance number getting too large, you could put a check and if it is getting near to the crashing number, then flip your plain's direction around so the number gets smaller.
I can understand that no numbers is preferable. How about instead of , below, and right, you have the game say, below but closer, and right, but closer, if you are closer in both x and y axes than the last time you hit the control right arrow. or, below but further, and right but further. or below but closer and right but further, if you are closer in one axes. You could still have below, and right, if you have not changed significantly. You would need to save the last x and y numbers and have the game compare them with the current set. Still a great game.
