First hour or creating a Space Invaders game - from scratch

So I thought it might be interesting to post the first hour of me creating a simple game, from scratch, complete with mistakes, crashes and badly drawn art. I decided to do a simple Space Invaders clone, as it's one I suspect many aspiring game devs might try. I've done a few games in a day, so I'm kinda working up to doing a full video of one, so this is a test run if you like...

It's interesting seeing how far you can get from scratch, even in an hour. Anyways... it's here if you have wanna see it.

The video is private.

Edit:
Not anymore, that's quite cool.

Yeah, I always get the order wrong on drawing - as all other surface calls have it first, then have a head scratching moment....
