Game Description:
Space Alien Invaders is an action-packed arcade game where you control a spaceship defending Earth from alien invaders. Dodge enemy attacks while shooting laser beams to repel the UFO onslaught. How long can you survive against the relentless alien horde? With retro pixel graphics and intuitive controls, it's an adrenaline-fueled battle for survival!
Space Invaders is a 1978 shoot 'em up video game developed and published by Taito for arcades. It was released in Japan in April 1978, with the game being released by Midway Manufacturing overseas. Space Invaders was the first fixed shooter and the first video game with endless gameplay (meaning there was no final level or endscreen) and set the template for the genre. The goal is to defeat wave after wave of descending aliens with a horizontally moving laser cannon to earn as many points as possible.
