Hi Luca,
Thanks for taking the time to play it. Frustrating, I'll say so. Very old school, no mercy. The final version will start off a little slower and makes it much easier. But after each set of 8 levels the speed will increase. This is the middle speed.
You're right about the latency, I toyed with and without and thought my method might keep the intensity up. But it's probably too much. 
Resetting the level is unfortunately part of the game engine, it might be difficult (if not impossible within the memory limitations to change this). I'm also 48 and grew up with bastard hard games and find modern games a little soft. 
Well spotted on the ship. Changing its colour and flipping it didn't hide it. That's also as much as I could include because that's all 128 characters gone. I don't even have a decimal point available for the version number.
Let me see what I can do about the changes.
One more thing. Do you reckon I should remove the level designer and add more levels. The designer takes a fair chunk of memory. Especially as I don't have a real machine to test it on?
Thanks again.
