Pixel Invaders (Andrew Hoyer)

Thank you for playing Pixel Invaders! This game was created for the LOWREZJAM 2021 game jam, with the restriction that the game must use only 64x64 pixels. I have been making shoot 'em ups and thought it would be fun to make one on a small scale.

Game is simple: Blast your way through waves of enemies, and get the highest score you can.

CONTROLS

Left/Right: A/D or left and right arrow keys

Fire: X, Space, or period (.). Save your fingers and keys by holding down for rapid fire.

Easy, Normal, and Hard mode available in the menu.
