This video contains footage of an 'old school' PC game I created, "Earth Defense."

The game's story goes a little something like this:
Invaders have arrived and are attacking without mercy. With little over 1000 remaining citizens on earth, it is your job to destroy the invaders and save as many lives as possible in the end. If you fail to destroy them in time, mankind as we know it will no longer exist!

As you can see in the video, this pays homage to the old arcade games in the 80's as well as home video game systems such as the Atari 2600. There are no flashy graphics and there is no music. The sound effects were actually taken directly from "Atlantis" for the Atari 2600 (see my "Making of . . " video) and help add to the nostalgia factor.

If you want to download and play the game, feel free to visit the link above. The controls are as follows:
SPACE - Fire middle cannon
LEFT ARROW + SPACE - Fire left cannon
RIGHT ARROW + SPACE - Fire right cannon
