Arcadia remake from the Commodore Vic20 8-bit computer. A fast and furious arcade shooter updated for Windows.
Instructions
Use the joysticks (two required for simultaneous two player mode) or the keyboard to control player 1 and 2. Shoot the oncoming waves of aliens, known as the Atarians. The key to victory is learning the best method of survival. There are many waves and practice is important!
You have a powerful Ion drive which also powers your deadly twin laser cannons. Your ship can be upgraded with bigger weapons and shields so watch out for bonuses that the Atarians release.
The game was written with a programming system called Jamagic by Clickteam, the authors of past game development systems such as STOS on the Atari ST, AMOS on the Amiga and Klik&Play / The Games Factory on Windows. We have included the full source code for the game. You can find it ZIPPED in the install directory.
