Alien Super Mega Blaster (named by my son) is a take on Space Invaders.

The theme is incorporated by the fact aliens do not fire back, but attack in response to you firing on them and spraying shrapnel in attempt to kill you. This shrapnel also kills the aliens and you can get a score multiplier for a cascade death by knocking out one of the large ships.

Some bugs for sure and would certainly like to improve the collision detection as this has been implemented for time to code. Pixel perfect will certainly be on the cards.

To run this you will need either the XNA studio 3.1 or the XNA redist from the link below:

If running this game is not possible as you either do not want to or can not install XNA, then I have updated a video of the submitted version here:

Have fun and would love some feedback.
