Get inside your laser cannon!
I've found an ST Review cover disk (#11), and on it is the imaginatively titled ST Review Invaders, a magazine exclusive by Dave Munsie. This is a game I fondly remember, but my first impressions weren't great as traditional elements are altered far too much for my liking. Such as how the cannon moves over a rocky landscape, and I prefer a game like this to remain legit. So, I recall not being immediately impressed.
After a few games, I found myself enjoying this quirky space shooter and the nifty new mechanics, which I think are excellent. Also, I enjoyed the faster gameplay, which is superb and loads of fun - I love how the pesky aliens no longer shoot in predictable straight lines, and their attack patterns are new and interesting. Level two sees them bopping along in a humorous fashion with a Mexican wave following later on!!
The authenticity is altered far too much for my liking, so it's not Space Invaders anymore. But ignore me, because it's a fantastic shooter in its own right, with that 'just one more go' factor. Love it!!
