After lots of good feedback I've uploaded version 1.1 of Prime Mover, with the below changes:
v1.1 changes: - added keys Z and B as alternative to Spacebar. - added checkpoints at unlocked doors and key points, continue can be used 3 times. - small changes to some enemies.
It's not that difficult really. You can get hit 3 times, plus theres 4 or 5 hearts you can pick up too, so you can take 7 or 8 hits in total before dying. There are no unpredictable/unfair hits either, so if the player takes 8 or more hits then they're either rushing or not good enough to complete it yet.
I have all the sound pretty much level but some are more abrasive than others, thats just the Spectrum. I could lower those sounds in particular but it's easier for the user to lower their sound or turn it off in-game.
I didn't add save points because the game is only 15-30mins long, and once you learn the controls and don't rush it's not overly difficult.
I saw this the other day, it's awesome, and totally unexpected!
Thanks!

Cool project!
Yup, no problem.
Have you used my explosions (http://opengameart.org/content/explosions-2) in your effects sheet, they look very similar?
Yes, I think you're right Demetrius. I bent the rules a little bit to make them look better.
Here are links to the game I made with it, by the way.
