Hi Andrej,

The powerups work, but the hitpoint bar is a cruel misdirection
by the UI.  It suggests that you can take hits, and you really
can't - you need 3 powerups to increase your firepower one level,
and getting hit removes a powerup.

BTW, even knowing the mechanics, I think the game is hard.  But
the misdirection and lack of documentation seems to be a bug.
