My current GUI has a paddle moving back and forth on the X-aixis, its controlled my an accelerometer. I'm was wondering how would you get a number of falling object starting from the top of the window and fall at random speeds? And the number of falling objects increase with time?

MATLAB offers a rand() function to generate random numbers, and various timing functions like tic and toc, and clock() or now(). It should be easy for you to do what you ask if you just use those built in functions.

image() them into place. Change the image object's xdata and ydata properties to move them.
If you need them to rotate as well, the easiest way would probably be to use a hgtransform to hold the image object.
