Invasion Force v1.0
 
Invasion Force is a fast paced retro style game - the game starts easy and gets gradually harder -
by level 10 or so things get quite hectic - and by level 15 they'll be swarming all over you!

You can use the keyboard or gamepad (recommended - especially analogue gamepads).
 
After selecting your controller type the title will appear along with the instruction 'press fire'.
If ignored the game will go through several information screens - which list the powerups,scoring etc.
To move to the next screen quicker press the fire button.
 
Minimum specification - 500Mhz processor, Windows Operating System with DirectX 7.

Keys

left,right,up and down 		- Arrow keys or joypad
fire                   		- space bar  or joypad button
pause/unpause game     		- P
quit game              		- ESC

Powerups (unlike ordinary laser shots) can be used for a limited time - this time is displayed as
a bar on the outside screen area.

When your ship is hit it flashes for 3 seconds to let you know your shield has depleted slightly
(shield status at top left of action screen) and that you are invincible until the flashing stops -
so you have a chance of moving out of the way of further shots.
