  1. I'm working on a game called "The Space Between" for a gamejam, and I have a problem with memory efficiency. I'm drawing asteroids as circles and destroying them when I don't need them, but it still starts to lag a bit as the game goes on. How can I make it faster and smoother? Here is a link to the game, and copy-pasted below is the part that deals with asteroid creation and, below that, the entire source code (all 382 lines of it). I don't really know anything about memory allocation, so I'm sure I'm making some pretty elementary errors. (Also, there's no loading screen yet, so give it a minute to pop up!) Thank you very much for any help you can give! Asteroid Creation/Destruction Code: // This function is called in update and constantly checks to see if certain thresholds are passed.// If they are, it generates a rectangular area of asteroids and calls a function to destroy others.function constantGen() { if ((threshold.x + 400) < sprite.x) {asteroidGen("right"); threshold.x = sprite.x; killAsteroids();} if ((threshold.x - 400) > sprite.x) {asteroidGen("left"); threshold.x = sprite.x; killAsteroids();} if ((threshold.y + 300) < sprite.y) {asteroidGen("down"); threshold.y = sprite.y; killAsteroids();} if ((threshold.y - 300) > sprite.y) {asteroidGen("up"); threshold.y = sprite.y; killAsteroids();}}// This is the function that generates asteroids when the ship gets to the edge of an areafunction asteroidGen(dir) { console.log("dir: " + dir); var xer = 0; var yer = 0; for (var b = 0; b < 10; b++) { if (dir == "right") { xer = sprite.x + 400 + Math.random() * 800; yer = sprite.y - 300 + Math.random() * 1200; } else if (dir == "down") { xer = sprite.x - 1200 + Math.random() * 1600; yer = sprite.y + 300 + Math.random() * 600; } else if (dir == "left") { xer = sprite.x - 400 - Math.random() * 800; yer = sprite.y - 900 + Math.random() * 1200; } else if (dir == "up") { xer = sprite.x - 400 + Math.random() * 1600;
