Worked some more on the game today, spent some time programming the enemy bullets so I can change their direction etc at will. Also added some enemies with no AI and placeholder sprite just to try out the bullet code. Spent some time tweaking the hit boxes as well.
You can try the latest version here (controls are the same)
Edit:
Upped the resolution the bit (about twice as high), new HD version here
