Very nicely done, though since you are using th emouse to aim, why not use it to fire as well? And just a thought - do you actually need a bullet for every alien? 6 or 8 bullets on screen at a time might be enough, each assigned to a random alien on firing, allowing you to eliminate some sprites and speed up the game. Alternatively, doing it that way would allow you to increase the number of senemy shots on screen at a time depending on level, giving you another mechanism for increasing difficulty.
Hmm...probably just a speed issue, because each level the bullets get faster by the same amount in the code, but thank you for your input and i will take a look at it.
A modern take on Space Invaders. 5 levels of shooting fun are functional, just use your mouse to move and the spacebar to shoot. Drop me some comments!
A special THANK YOU to Mayhem for his multiple bullet help, as well as a large THANK YOU to Archmage for all the communication and help as well. Go check these guys out!

The game looks like a old school video game but not when the U.F.O's exploded but it was still fun!

Yay - saved the modern world! Nicely done and very smooth, although I fell off the screen at the very beginning!

Fun game, but you made the enemy attack far too much faster on level 4 than on level 3. Lol, other than that, wonderful job
