help with game name

Postby nocaffeinesprite on Sun Nov 22, 2009 3:15 pm

Hi I hope someone can help me with a name of a game. Below are the characteristics of the game that I still remember:
1. Playing as a space ship, probably on the moon surface. the color is silver (I think)
2. The screen does not roll vertically nor horizontally. The screen is static. The game plays vertically.
3. Since the screen is static, enemy ships come from off screen from the right, left, and top
4. The final boss is an alien ship that spews a lot small alien ships.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Hmm, can you tell us more? Is it a computer game? Did you play it on an arcade cabinet? A game console perhaps? What you describe can be 10,000 games, so a little more info would be awesome. :)
