Space Invaders Extreme Demo Released



Sony has released a demo for the upcoming Space Invaders Extreme. I didn't expect much in an updated version of Space Invaders but I was pleasantly surprised when I downloaded it and played it. I spent at least two hours playing the single level provided and there seems to be some depth to it. Many power-ups, bonus levels, etc. are included. The graphics are good, as are the controls, There also seems to be a little bit of "on the fly" music creation. What I mean is that when you destroy the Invaders the sounds produced compliment the background music in a way that makes you feel as though you are adding "notes" to the music... sort of. Here are some screen shots.

Invaders can turn sideways as though they were flat:

Give it a try, you'll have fun.
