Game Review & Impressions
---------------------------------------------------
One of Eugene Jarvis' most iconic games of all time, Defender is distilled arcade action at its best.

This is a score attack game with no ending, with the only goal lasting as long as possible, staving off your cataclysmic, but nonetheless spectacular death. The combination of black background and neon-infused alien craft, laser beams and explosions overlayed on top create a psychedelic disco of destruction that is still really satisfying to play.

The objective is simple: protect human scientists meandering about the planet's surface from alien abduction, lest they be converted to an alien themselves, hunting you relentlessly across the blackened skies.

You have at your disposal both rapid fire lasers and a limited number of smart bombs with which to blow up the invaders, and there's also a teleport that can be activated to get you out of stick situations.

To progress to the next wave, all aliens must be destroyed before they can convert all humans on the surface. On losing your last colonist,you are thrust into a final, spectacular battle against endless waves of the most vicious enemies known to humankind - how long can YOU last?
