Alien Invasion 2.1.1
A Space Invaders-like game for the unexpanded Commodore VIC20. Alien movement is pixel-based. The game is simple at the beginning, but it becomes really fast after having defeated a few alien waves. It should be intriguing as the gameplay differs a little from the original arcade game.
Download the .D64 disk image and smart open it with VICE xVIC emulator to give it a try.
Release candidate 1 for distribution on cassette and floppy disks.
This version should be compatible with PAL and NTSC systems. Playing on a NTSC computer makes the game a little harder, though, as the speed is slightly faster. I tested it on-the-field with a real PAL VIC20 and some persons reported a correct behavior with NTSC systems.

The game may work on NTSC systems, albeit with much alien flickering; the game field may also be cropped vertically by your TV.
Alien Invasion
Corrects an issue that prevented the loader of v1.0 to work on a real VIC20.
Character-based Space Invaders clone. It seems simple... at the beginning :-)

The movement of aliens and of the cannon is character-based. The game aims to be quite fast. If you think the game is too easy, try to gather at least 1500 points.
Tried with the real thing (PAL). If this release does not work properly, try release 1.0.1: https://github.com/DarwinNE/vic20-aliens-inv/releases/tag/v1.0.1
