True classics never die.

Alien Sky is based on the old favourite Space Invaders, but updated to take advantage of better graphics and sound. The action is fast and furious with plenty of different alien spacecraft to defeat.

Even more impressive are the different formations they take - understanding the weaknesses of each is key to succeeding. Enemy ships can also intercept power-ups, adding another level of difficulty to the game.

You can control your space ship with keyboard, mouse or joystick. There is also the possibility to post high scores on the games website.

Verdict

A nice update to an old classic.

Sorry that it took so long Michelle but I think that this may be what you are after, it certainly looks to me like the original arcade version, and its downloadable and free
