Demon Seed

A very impressive version of Phoenix with some infuriatingly difficult waves, just as hard as the arcade original.

Like the other Microdeal games, it allows you a choice of playing colours: black, buff or green. The attacks come in two types of wave, the small swooping birds and the large ones which hatch from oscillating eggs.

Your base at the bottom of the screen has left/right movement and an added shield to make it invulnerable when the joystick is pushed up. This takes time to recharge though and you cannot move while it is on.

The action is smooth and the explosion as your base goes up in smoke is very gratifying for the aliens.
