4676: Invasion ============== Story ----- The year is 4676. Every planet in the universe is crowded by one species or another, some peaceful and some violent. The later ones are responsible for unearthing a habit long forgotten: conquering. And just as it has always been, the strong conquer the weak. One of these civilizations has declared the Earth a weak planet, marking us humans as prey. It's time to stand our ground and repel the invaders. The Game -------- Your mission is to destroy as many enemy spaceships as you can, while avoiding their attacks and, most importantly, not allowing them to get through you towards the Earth. That will cause you to lose a life. You are the last line of defence, and your spaceship is highly advanced and comes fully equipped with an energy blaster and thrusters to move around. Its shield can withstand five enemy attacks before it is reduced to a critical state. Enemies ------- 1. Asteroids The war, of cosmical scale, is taking place just outside the earth. Asteroids from the Asteroid Belt, too, plummet their way towards the Earth, and your enemies are using this to their advantage. The asteroids pose a similar threat to that of your enemies, and so it is your duty to destroy them too in the process. 2. Enemy fleet The enemy fleet, filled with anger, envy and wishes of bloodletting, are making their way towards the Earth and the only thing standing in their way is you. These fearsome enemies will hide behind asteroids and move erratically avoiding your bullets while shooting at you.
