Almost everyone knows the game Space Invaders, but only few know the story behind the invaders. This game is about them, and how they struggle every day with their only purpose: to get killed.

Collision is off but I'll possibly fix that in a post-compo version.

The collision is really off. Sometimes the bullets pass miles away from the invaders and still kill them. The song is quite annoying after a while. Because of the collision, it's very hard to get far when it comes to levels.

I like the idea (very similar to mine actually).

I know. I am going to try to fix it today but it might be that it's impossible to fix without changing the entire code so I'll see about that.

I do like this Idea It's nice.

Great idea but as mentioned already, execution left kind of a lot to be desired.

Interesting premise, but the code can use some work.

The background "music" got really annoying by Wave3 (But I guess that makes you the villain)

It's a good idea, but as others have said - the collision detection is a bit off!

This game is buggy. It is FUBAR buggy. The collision doesn't like to work, sometimes it's at the top of the screen and my guys at the bottom die, sometimes I run straight over it and it does nothing. If you die, the try again button stays there when you click "story". I kind of like the song.
Overall, this isn't even a game. 1 / 5, sorry.

The "music" actually starts to grow on you after a while.

Good news people! 5 hours after the deadline I finally thought of a solution to the collision problem (stupid me). I'll implement it later today but do I have to make it a post-compo version or is this a game-breaking bug so I can edit my normal game?

I didn't like how you couldn't move all the way across the screen when you were down to just a few guys.
