The year is 1979 and Planet Earth is being invaded by alien invaders - Are you up to the challenge of saving mankind?
1979 Invasion Earth has three single player gameplay modes and a Brand New Two Player Battle Mode
Relive the bygone days of video games with Arcade Mode.. fun, exciting and damned hard. You start with three lives and you must clear each stage before advancing into different zones.
A gameplay mode where the enemy aliens don't shoot back.. slight snag, to advance stages you must destroy enough of them nasty little alien ufo's.. sounds easy? try challenging.
You start this gameplay mode with one life and the timer running. Waves increase in intensity every 30 seconds, how long can you survive. Increase your score by shooting pickups, but be aware, it gets harder to see enemy bullets falling whilst your blasting everything in sight.
Compete with a friend with this local two player gameplay mode. Three rounds of sharpshooting. Who's the best? Requires a keyboard and a xbox compatible joypad.
