| As the name suggests, Super Space Invaders is an enhanced remake of the legendary 1979 Space Invaders, the mother of all top-down space shooters. The story behind the game goes like this: sometime in the future, people of the planet Earth have moved their trash to space. And in that trash, among other things, are some broken down "Space Invaders" game machines. One of them gets separated from the lot, and gets picked up by aliens, while drifting through space. |

After some time, Earth and it's colonies are attacked by alien life forms that resemble those from the game. Only this time, they're for real. So, in order to save your planet, you have to fire up your starfighter, and defeat the extraterrestrials.
This remake brings some significant improvements, both in graphics and gameplay. Every level has it's own background (which are well drawn, btw), your space ship has shields (unlike the original game, where you lost a life if your ship got hit), you can get various power-ups (extra shield, extra ammo, laser ammo, bombs, stopping time etc). |
