How does your game fit the theme?
The game is basically Space Invaders but with the roles reversed. Instead of playing as the cannon defending the bunkers, you play as an alien attacking the bunkers and avoiding the player/cannon's bullets. Note: Art was recreated but was heavily based on original game so technically is pre existing
Did your team create the vast majority of the art during the 48 hours?
No
We used pre-existing art
Did your team create the vast majority of the music during the 48 hours?
Yes
We created the vast majority of the music during the game jam

Brilliant. Nice authentic graphics and sounds. Very playable
I had no idea being a space invader felt exactly like being the guy who shoots the space invaders. The game is great! So was the video. For some reason in safari it was super laggy but worked perfectly fine on chrome. I kinda wish I had more than three dudes but I managed to destroy all the cannons once. Great job!
Saw the video man, great work. Loved the concept and the execution.
It was really fun and I liked how you got closer the more you shot
DevBanana great game, and the difficulty curve, just perfect. I would say to pump up the post processing.
The game is very polished and fun to play! The only complaining I have is that when you get too close to the bunkers, it becomes literally impossible to dodge the attack pattern, that shoots directly into your position from the centre.
Great game overall!
I like the different types of attack patterns, it makes it a lot more interesting and difficult
The humans have really stepped up their game! The aliens are slackin...
Great entry! Very challenging one here. The movement feels very responsive and the sound effects are really good.
Need a little balance but overall this game is nice.
This was a really nice game you really managed to keep the original feeling of the game really well.
Cool Concept!
really fun just don't feel like your making progress
Came from the youtube video! Really cool concept and well executed, congratz!
I found it funny, I liked it a lot, Great game jam entry
Better than the og!
Neat little game. I did find it a bit difficult to control at times with the spinning bullet enemies but overall was fun.
Came here from your YouTube video. I think you managed to still make it feel like space invaders while still giving it the twist it needed. Very nice.
Different enemies with their own patterns sure took me by surprise and made this predictable concept pretty fun and challenging. Good job!
My only nitpick is that it seems like the invincibility frames are inconsistent, which leads to you getting killed immediately after you respawn, which kinda sucks, but i understand that there was not that much time to polish the game.
Love the role reverse on this one. I think it would have been cool if you could use the defending player to shoot it's own barrier or not let the defending player to shoot through the barrier. Good job!
Super fitting with the theme and honestly just a lot of fun to play!
