This game was ahead of its time. Released in 1983, it was doing parallax backgrounds which gave it a 3D effect. And this makes a big difference for a game that’s pretty much like Space Invaders and Galaga.

Quick note on tonight’s #Monsterdon entry: On the Wikipedia entry for the soundtrack to the 1999 Godzilla movie, this comment is made about one of the songs:“A notable entry is ‘No Shelter’ by Rage Against the Machine, in which a line in the lyrics of the song appears to criticize the film for distracting the public, saying, ‘Godzilla, pure motherfucking filler. Get your eyes off the real killer.’"
Skipping #Monsterdon because I simply cannot do that to myself tonight. We’ve started Welcome To Derry instead. The very first scene was a doozy, so I’m hoping it’ll be a fun (and scary) ride.
