Looks good, and different. I would suggest spending more time on the "insert coin to continue". Right now it;

1. looks like an afterthought.
2. provides so much contrast it is distracting from the best parts. (namely the name marquee)

Changed some things on the marquee, moved the ship and added shading to it. And fixed the coin text. So all I need is something chasing the ship.

I would suggest making the ship move in the opposite direction.

Left to right suggest motion & speed.
Right to left suggests halting.
Not a big deal, but somewhat of a design / direction tenet.

I think it's awesome :)
