Space Evaders



Justin Staines evades the invaders.



This game for the 16K or 48K Spectrum [although AFAICT it

only actually works on the 48K - may be a typo on my part]

is based on the popular arcade game Space Invaders. The

object as usual is to stop the five attack waves of aliens,

each of which vary in speed and fire power from reaching

Earth. You, as the sole survivor of the first attack wave,

have to destroy all the aliens while avoiding their bombs.

  The number of space ships you have depends on the amount

of skill shown in the first game, i.e. reasonably good,

three ships - excellent, two ships.

  To move use Z - left, X - right, Space - fire. You can,

if you have one, use the Sinclair ZX Interface Two (R)

which, by the way, uses keys 1, 2 and 5.
