I dusted off my Apple Joystick //e and I determined that the buttons are working (for now). I have to say this game is so much more amazing playing it with the joystick: gameplay is so smooth and fun! Excellent work! With the joystick I was able to make it to level 2. The walls on that level are far out.
I discovered with one of my //e joysticks with non-functional buttons that contact cleaner did the trick. Disassemble the joystick and unclasp the buttons. Be careful as there are little springs between the buttons tops and the actual mechanism that can pop off. Douse the mechanism in contact cleaner and work it in. Worked for me.
I spent quite a bit of time getting the joystick *feel* to work well. You really need to finesse the movements to keep from flailing all over the place. I hope I got it.
