Space Invaders! is the second level in Retro Gaming, Wonderland-Style. It is based off the 1978 arcade game of the same name.

Origin and Differences

The original game

Space Invaders was developed by Taito and originally released on April 1, 1978. In it, the player controls a cannon that can fire lasers to take out an advancing wall of aliens. There are four barriers that the player can hide under to be protected from alien fire. As more aliens are destroyed, the aliens descend more quickly. The game immediately ends if the aliens reach the bottom of the screen. There is sometimes a red spaceship that flies by on the top of the screen and can be shot for a random amount of points.

In the Return to Wonderland version, the aliens are represented by Flying Saucers, and the barriers are made up of Wooden Boxes. Stinky and Loof cannot take out the Flying Saucers directly, so Reflectors are used to reflect the shots fired by the Flying Saucers back at them.

Trivia

This one was trickier. Yes, Return To Wonderland has UFOs, and the classic “shields” of the original Space Invaders game were easily recreated using walls of wooden boxes, but Stinky and Loof had no way of fighting back. Except, of course, to use reflectors to turn the enemy fire back on them. That’ll teach those flying saucers!
