Buttons: it struck me that you're using all the shoulder buttons but only
three of the front buttons, and that the little ship configuration change is
important enough to warrant a front button.  This would leave a shoulder
button free so you could have speed up and speed down buttons, which would
help a lot in speed control.  I think.

Have you tried using ordinary sprites for the ground?  It doesn't seem (yet)
like you're viewing it from any direction but straight overhead.  Though
it'd be neat if you could.

Thanks for confirming my suspicions about the spinny guy.  I was concerned
'cuz ordinary shots didn't seem to be hurting it, though they'd hurt
similar-looking enemies earlier.  But I know how much of a pain it is to
come up with new enemy graphics.

Good luck--the next one ought to be even cooler.
