Hello Chris,
  sorry I've not got time to look for the bug right now... I've only just
got round to trying the game.
I like the game... it'll be even better when it has a few SFX too.  It has a
nice 'professonal feel' about it.
Perhaps the most effective weapons should have a limited number of shots per
level so that you have to make every shot count.  Anyhow I like the array of
weapons.

... are there more enemies on level 6 than the others... if so perhaps
you've over-run the an array, and the last one never gets sent to the OT.

... have you wrapped the angle of thier rotation OK?  I.e. setting the angle
back to zero (plus the remainder) when the angle goes over 4096?

Oh yes and thanks for the mention on the front screen.... if it's a mention
for the auto_arc_tan routine then no need to have my name in lights that
big.... When I said give me a mention if you use it I had envisaged a
mention in teeny-tiny print at the bottom of some list of stuff, off some
sub menu or something.
