I'm confused... or maybe mine is broken. How do you die? I started a game and played for maybe an hour and a half (pausing for minutes at a time to chat, eat, watch tv, etc.) and as far as I could tell, I didn't lose one ship. I picked up plenty of extra ships (9 in reserve) and bombs, but never used them. I even tried to die. I stopped moving and let all the little shapes mob me. The entire screen was full of pretty colors and polygons, but my little ship was still sittin there pumping out those missiles (at a much reduced frame rate).
Eventually I just quit. When I first started the game I was randomly pressing buttons in an attempt to figure out the controls or bring up the options, and I got a display of the frame rate numbers in the upper left corner of the screen... Maybe I activated some sort of debug mode? I dunno... Guess I'll try again tomorrow.
