Description
I am uploading this game PURELY as a test of some Flash functions. I am wholly aware that it sucks and has no goal, no need to tell me. :)

The overall ballistics routine seems sturdy, however:
1) There is a glitch the causes the bullet to hit the line and de-allocate.
2) The alignment between the bullet and the gun barrel is off. (Either off-set the barrel, or make the trajectory of the bullet relative to the barrel, maybe the end of the barrel instead of an arbitrary position on the screen.) I don't know the formula, but there is one for determining the position of a point on an arc that can be relative to any given point on the barrel that you could then associate with the firing origin for the bullet.
3) [Aesthetic] When the barrel passes 90 deg. you could have the barrel effectively 'flip' positions so that it will always have the proper appearance, or make the barrel center to the base and pivot on a set axis.
Cheers on a good start mate!

Gave it a three simply because it's better than some of the other games out there and you were honest in the description.
