great job! I like it!
Seeing your video on it I realize that your Mouse Tank is also Asteroid mouse ! Yeah, in the place of so many little monsters you could generate a few giant monsters that when hit they are splitted into littler more noumeros monsters.

LOL thanks Tempodi! I do need to fix it though, because sometimes it doesn't change levels and it just leaves a blank screen. Thanks for the idea though. Or I can just make an asteroids clone that I've never made before.

OK I believe I fixed it! Don't ask me how, but reducing some variables to 0 before every game and others before every level works great! I also did like Steve asked and slowed the LIMIT down from 120 to 60 and now per every level the monsters come at you a little bit faster. I got to level 39 myself, but I'm also used to playing the game. Good luck!
Also, please tell me if you run into any more issues, thanks.

? When I am shooting with space bar the bullets don't have any range on them.
I have to keep my finger on mouse button to shoot and that makes it hard to use mouse wheel, for me anyway.

It works fairly well. The collision detection is a bit off as shooting out a monster's legs is like missing it completely.
I think what Mark is experiencing is something I recall for a shooter game I engineered several years ago, the multi-firing effect. In this game if you hold the space bar down, the bullet fired disappears so the new bullet can begin.
Two ways to fix this.
1) Don't let another bullet emerge until the previous bullet is ended.
2) Assign the bullets as arrays, and FOR/NEXT loop the collision possibilities so each fired bullet is tracked.
Over-all I like it. I got through 1 screen of monsters, successfully, before I shut it down.

Thanks guys, yeah I knew this problem. One shot has to be fired at once if you want full-range.
I'll look into this soon hopefully. Pete, I'll probably go with the arrays of the bullets to keep the flying, just like I do with how many raindrops can fall at once.
I also have to use this fix on a new game I'm making right now, Asteroids Clone.

I did it!! Now people can hold down the Space Bar to keep shooting and the range is as far as the screen.
I also made it so you can hit the monster when you shoot the legs.
Thanks @bplus and @Pete
I can now implement this into my new Asteroids Clone I'm making! 
-Update: I also removed the mouse button firing, there was no more need for it.
Here is the fixed version.

On a side note, when I got to level 62 tonight, the sound was messing up a bit, but it was probably my computer. So I stopped the game.

Thanks B+! Yeah I think this is my first shooting game that finally has non-stop bullets.
I might have fixed that sound issue I had. I removed one of the 2 PLAY "MB" commands I had. I thought maybe the one right next to the SOUND lines weren't needed. And it turns out it wasn't. I kept the one that is out of the loop above it. I also reduced the 3 SOUND lines slightly for each shot. So maybe that fixed it, we'll see I guess.
I also made the game a little more challenging up front so you won't have to wait 20 levels to have some challenge to it, by adding a tiny bit more speed.
Enjoy!

'Thank you to the QB64 Phoenix Forum, including B+ and Steve for the help over the years.
'Thanks grymmjack for the new SOUND information.
'Thanks Pete and B+ for the help on bullet ranges.
'New sound and now some of the monsters come right at you starting from the beginning
'to make it more challenging.
'Added arms, hands, legs, and feet that move. Also made eyes and mouths get smaller and larger.
'Also, the gun turret turns red when a monster hits you.
'Plus, there's a better sound at the end of the game.
'Update: Fixed level problem.
'Update: Fixed bullet ranges. Now you can hold down the Space Bar!
'Update: Made a little more challenging and hopefully fixed a sound issuue.
