Description

This Space Invaders variant, simply called Space Invaders, has very little to differentiate itself from the Taito original. It has the rows of aliens, the three barriers, your ship that can only fire one bullet at a time, and the flying saucer that passes by from time to time. What is lacking is the accelerating "heartbeat" sound and the changing colours of the invaders. The game has, somewhat uncommon for space games, a white background with an orange ship, cyan invaders and magenta barriers. Nine difficulty levels are available.
