Cosmic Invaders
They're back, and this time they brought the whole hive.
Cosmic Invaders is a modern take on the arcade classic. The formation still marches down at you. Now it's in widescreen multicolor pixel art, with screen shake, hit-stop and particles on every kill, and an EDM soundtrack built on the four-note march that adds layers as you clear the wave.
A three-act campaign
- Act I: Home. Defend the city skyline, then take down the Mothership.
- Act II: The Void. Divers break formation and come straight at you. The Battle Station waits at the end.
- Act III: Their World. Armored invaders on their home planet, and the Hive Queen herself.
Three waves and a boss per act, each boss with its own attacks.
Build your run
- Shoot the mystery ship for power-ups: Rapid Fire, Double Shot or a bunker repair.
- After each of the first two bosses, pick 1 of 3 upgrades for the rest of your run: Shield, Piercing Shots, Charge Shot, Dash, Extra Life and more.
- Lost your last life in Act II or III? Continue from the start of the act with your upgrades, but your score resets.
Controls
- Keyboard: Arrows or A / D to move, Space to fire, Esc to pause.
- Phone / tablet: play in landscape. Touch controls, with auto-fire in the pause menu.
Feedback is very welcome. Use SEND FEEDBACK in the pause menu; it reaches me directly.
