My suggestion is to take a look SurfaceView... As I have found previously SurfaceView gave me the freedom to do anything I wanted and avoid blocking the UI thread. As it has it's own thread, you can specify all kind of time frames and interactions. You can even calculate physics and collisions. HERE is a great tutorial for getting you started.
