Yes, an interesting thing about the game, which fits the rag doll theme, is that the action follows what the player does, rather than the player driving the action directly. The player doesn't so much directly aim and blow away the enemy, as the body reacts to the player's movements, and so do the aliens react to the player's movements, and that is a path that can lead to easier success - you can not only predict but lead the opponent to leave room for your survival and their eventual defeat.

The rotating laser is just a different kind of pattern to incorporate, but having trained for one dance, I failed to shift to consistently deal with the new kind as well. Interesting though. When I want some more trance and flow therapy, I'll go back to it.

I had a few suspicions that they reacted to you, but only suspicions. Mostly, I use it to zone-out and zen.
