Nice graphics, exquisite presentation, good shading, fast, nicely drawn and fastly animated sprites, super control panel cleverly appearing over the playing area, so you have more chances to hit the aliens, because it isn't so easy to strike them voluntarily. In fact, this game seems lacking a game. You must defend the earth, which you can see under you, destroying and destroying - and there's not much else. Not very intriguing, and no variety at all.
2/5

David Whittaker's title tune is fantastic, the game itself though is absolutely pitiful. It's a bit like Blasteroids but nowhere near as fun. It's a bore right from the off and never picks up momentum, even with the music playing in the background. Worth a look for the music alone or just find it on YouTube, because if it's a game you're looking for you won't find it here. This is possibly the worst game Binary Design wrote.
