Nothing seems to happen because you can't notice it. Unless you see heavy
flickering then It should be working. Also vsync() works once and draw as
much as it can before the next vertical retrace but your drawing might take
longer than that so you will have to use it again...I sujest adding another
call before the draw_sprite's...
