I didn't know this even existed. So, are you going for a full-on Space Invaders style or do you intend to keep the P's static?

 

Don't know if it was the emulator but every so often the bullets I fired would 'jump' a few pixels either left or right while continuing there upwards path. Hope that makes sense.

The Ps will remain motionless, as the code even now for the program to decipher which P you shot at and should leave the screen is really long. I haven't seen the bullets move left or right, I did notice this happening in an earlier version when you're at the invisible borders.

I downloaded it, but apparently the guy who was maintaining o2em for Ubuntu stopped some time ago. Looking forward to giving it a try when I have the free time to build o2em.

Maybe it was the emu running a little funny as I can't replicate the glitch today...

 

Do you plan to expand the game further or is this the final thing? Just curious.

I don't know. I can take suggestions except for moving the Ps. They have to be in the same place for the code to work.
