Had a few more goes on this utterly beastly game. Another thing that irks me here is the pitiful range of the vertical weapon firing [-X

Made it past the first level with the purple faces, but really think I'm done after seeing what follows.

Score: 5960

Yeah, the range is a real problem and the death loop. I've got to the same level as you (2nd lot of purple faces with 3 bouncing disks) but killed all but the last baddy. I've had 2 or 3 lives left at this point but when you die, you reincarnate too close to the baddy and the default firing direction is down. By the time you point and fire forwards, your weapon isn't strong enough to kill the baddy before it gets you. A loop of death that you can't get out of. That's just crap game design.
