Don't buy the rear shot or the extended fire. The rear shot is not worth
the money, which would be much better spent on more bombs. As for the
extended range, it makes you extremely vulnerable, since you can't keep
up a continuous barrage (you have to wait until the bullets disappear off
the screen, which takes much longer.) Your weapons shot far enough as it is.

One last tip. Have a precision joystick. It's real tough to make the
necessary movements without one. (I know - my joystick is real bad).

I too don't have any jerky movement.
