Also what isn't comfortable is knowing that as you play your points
decrease, requiring you to go as fast as possible to get a real high score.
I also added rapid-fire capabilities to the source and sent it to this
list before v2.1 even came out. The least the guy could've done is spare
our [Y=] key from getting destroyed. On top of that, my high score is only
49,007 points (that is probably an all-time high for anybody and I got real
lucky...few enemies firing at all and I beat every level as quickly as
could be done).
NOTE: Rapid-fire starts out REAL slow and gets progressively faster as
long as you beat each level without losing lives (gets slower if you die).
So, rapid-fire saves my [Y=] key but also provides a challenge to survive
to better firepower.
