Game Introduction
The upright version of this game says "Solar Creature" on the side of the cabinet. It is basically a rip-off of Space Invaders, but since the game uses a color monitor, the invaders maintain their colors as they descend. The flying saucer drops new invaders as it passes overhead which makes clearing the current level much more difficult. There is also a "coffee break" intermission after level three where a coffee mug is filled with invaders, complete with steam!
Game Play
It plays just like Space Invaders, with identical graphics. It uses a color monitor instead of a b/w monitor with a color overlay.
