They kept sliding off the map and giving me free kills.\r<br\/>Game was pretty fun, good work!\r<br\/>I liked the beep at the start of the game...

You need to add some damping (every frame: velocity = velocity*damping, and then damping is some number like 0.95) so that the ship's velocity goes down faster over time. The way it is now makes this kinda unplayable.
