About the Game

Defender is a classic arcade shooter where you pilot a spaceship across a horizontally-scrolling landscape to protect humanoids from alien invaders. The game features fast-paced action with waves of increasingly difficult enemies including bombers, pods, and swarmers. You can move left and right, fire lasers, and use hyperspace to escape danger. The objective is to destroy all aliens before they abduct the humans on the planet's surface, with difficulty ramping significantly as you progress through waves.
