First, sorry about my poor english. I had a look at your script and it's nice, but you should perhaps try to set always two kinds of coordinates for each object in 2D games. Virtual and true. The true one is for drawing the image on left corner, the virtual is used for everything else (Collision-detection etc.). It defines always the middle of the object and the whole screen reaches from -1 to 1. It's much easier for calculations as well. I can explain some more details if you want because it can be very useful for your future games. It's a much better style.

Greetings
