Description
The government denies alien abductions. Take a more proactive approach and blow them to bits.
It's a remake of Defenda! which was published on the coverdisk of Amiga Computing sometime in 1992. Apparently that was a remake of an older defender game on the Atari. Good games just won't die.
How to Play
Keys: Arrows Move. Space fires. The game is over when you run out of people.
Yes, you get infinite lives. The penalty for getting shot is the aliens can have a good go at stealing your people before you can respawn.
Look after your people, because there is no way to get them back.
'n' key shows the names of all the little people.
Escape key brings up a menu.
Developer Updates
New â radar. Every playtester said they wanted a radar. It took me a week. I hope youâre happy.
The tutorial tells you what he upgrades do, but Iâll put it here as well:
B â Rapid fire V â Faster flying
S â Points. C â All the little guys run for the hut
(no, I canât remember what I was thinking when I choose those letters)

You're coming along as a developer. Nice work. It definitely needed the radar-I also like the fist shaking and such things.

Fast paced, not too smooth on the controls, but the idea is great. Could use a bit more to gameplay ,but it has tons of potential and room for improvement. 3/5

Space Harrier, isn't it? (If I remember right). I like the ability to hitch the people and lower them gently to Earth when you've blown away their abductor. Of the rest, though, a good clone, but still of a game that's over twenty years old.
