This game has my heart and my ears. My brain feels like there needs to be some tweaks to help it catch up with the others. I'm not sure what could help, I think the previous comments touch on possible improvements. One thing I was thinking was the have a sort of macro-recording ability where the player selects a ship, hits "record" and then they control the ship for a short period of time using the arrow keys and then the recording ends and that's the ship's loop until they record another direction setting.
