Publisher's description of Scott's Space Invaders 1.6

From SB Software:

They arrived one day. They attacked the outpost. Funny little green guys shooting purple energy zigzags. All would have been lost were it not for the lone defender in his little ship. He fought them. Wave after wave. Scott's Space Invaders is like the good old' space invaders that you remember, but with a few additional perks and power ups, some new tricks, and designed to operate on modern PC hardware.

The game is highly configurable. You can play by mouse, keyboard, joystick, or gamepad. The background uses high resolution space telescope images and can be set to be either fixed or rotating which adds to the difficulty of the game. You can get advanced weapons such as starburst missiles, multiple cannons, shields, and more. And of course, you can ignore all those bells and whistles and play a good ol' classic space invaders game if you prefer.

This Space Invaders knockoff seems unlikely to win any design accolades, but its feature set helps give it a boost. Scott s Space Invaders is played just like the arcade classic, and the mostly primitive graphics echo this intent. While your spaceship and the enemy aliens look as if they crawled straight out of 1980, the colorful background photo and decent sound effects help liven things up. For a free game, we were surprised to find as many features as we did. For example, you can select from a few difficulty levels, enable cheats, play in windowed mode, disable the audio, and change the speed of your weapon. In short, the game breaks no new ground, but fans of the original Space Invaders or folks on a retro kick will probably find it a satisfactory download, particularly given its cost.
