Yes, I agree, it is pretty cool and was a pleasant surprise when I saw it
the first time with this new version.

I had no problems at all with the fuel bar, running the game on a 20"
television.

Agreed, it would be nice if the final "Level" screen (after you die) says
"Game Over" or something.

Also agreed. :)

I didn't have any problems, but now I'm quite curious so let me fire it up.
Okay, I just played a few games and while it does get more difficult
starting on level 3, I don't feel that levels 4 and 5 are any easier (and in
fact, the "key" starts to appear on level 4). But even with the speedup on
level 3, it's still fairly easy at that point. What kind of problems are
you having?
Something I just noticed -- the Reset switch doesn't work when the "LEVEL
XX" text is visible between levels.
Take care,
