Hi, I would like to create a timer in my space shooter game but do not know how. I would like it to go up in seconds and then stop until my Alien sprite has killed my Spaceship sprite.

I want to create a timer
I do know how to declare a field but I have not attempted to create a timer. I Iooked at another forum but it just wouldn't work for my game.Here is the forum
Use something like this:
// field
private int timer;
// in constructor
updateTimer();
// in act
if (++timer%60 == 0) updateTimer();
// add this method
private void updateTimer()
{
showText("Time: "+(timer/3600)+"m "+(timer/60)+"s", 80, 20);
}Which class do I put this in?
