You messed up making the interval number. To make it between 500 and 1500, you do Math.random()*1000 +500, not Math.random()*500 +1000.

I'm not sure what part of the sentence "Made with permission from Kongregate" you guys don't understand... If it is true then this is Ok... can someone from Kong clear it up... anyways update was needed to AS3.

To get the explosion movie clip, you need to extract the Untitled-1.fla, open it, copy the explosion movie clip from the library, then paste it onto the stage of your game.
