Arguably the biggest difference between this and Space Invaders, this system encourages you to chase high scores in the short term as well as the long term.

#TITAN ATTACKS VITA UPGRADE#

Yes, the stringent adherence to the template ensures that this is a game with minimal content, but in terms of pure gameplay, Titan Attacks (IвЂ™m going to drop the exclamation from here on in),is about as enjoyable and addictive as anything I have played this year.ДЄ big part of that addictiveness is down to the aforementioned, upgrade system. That might sound like a criticism, but thanks to the simplistic brilliance of the original, is anything but. Sure, there are no walls between you and your alien based assailant and yes, Titan Attacks! is home to an addictive upgrade system, but other than that, this is essentially, on a conceptual level at least, the same game as the original released way back in 1978. Titan Attacks! is a game that truly pushes the concept of homage to its very limit. So if you have epilepsy or are prone to seizures when viewing bright rapidly flashing lights, you might want to skip out.Have you played Space Invaders? Now, imagine Space Invaders andвЂ¦вЂ¦well, actually, thatвЂ™s pretty much all you have to do. And as we all know, this kind of flashing light can cause minor headaches and eye strain for some players for others it is much severe to the point that they go into epileptic shock. This usually will cause the screen to flash all sorts of bright lights. IвЂ™m sure IвЂ™ve mentioned this in the past but with most shmups will try to fill the screen as much as they possibly can will all kinds of enemies and neon bullets. However there is a small problem that will affect a small percentage of gamers and that is the flashing lights and effects in the game. Sure there is the risk of cannibalizingВ sales on the other platforms, but when you can reach so many gamers across three platforms, the risk is worth it.Д®pileptics need not apply-В For the most part Titan Attacks is a pretty solid game.

Puppy Games takes this to heart and has Titan Attacks available on the PS3, Vita and the PS4 if you buy one version of the game. Now with the PS4 able to play cross buy games, developers can reach a greater audience.

#TITAN ATTACKS VITA PS3#

Being able to play a game on the go and then being able to pick up where you left of when you get home on your PS3 was an innovative feature. These power ups range from extra shields, bullet power and extra bullets to screen clearing bombs and adding helpers.Д¬ross buy/cross play-В For a couple of years now the cross buy/cross play features have been a big part of the Vita experience. Titan Attacks adds power ups to its gameplay that players can use. Like customizing play styles with power ups for example. There are five levels and range from fighting for the Earth to taking the fight to the aliens on Mars and beyond.Д¬ustomize play style with power ups-В While I donвЂ™t have anything against cloned games, I just wish that sometimes that they would put at least more effort and work into their game. As players go through the game, aliens from the previous world will show up as well as new aliens from the current world that is being played. With Titan Attacks there are five worlds that players are able to play through. Most clones would have done the same and call it a day. Level selection- The original Space Invaders didnвЂ™t really have levels other than a bump up in the speed and difficulty. It has enough of its own flare that it doesnвЂ™t completely lift the spirits from Space Invaders yet one look at them and you can make the connection to it. While this might not seem that bad, I see it as being lazy and not paying tribute to the classic game that it was inspired by.Titan Attacks takes the retro look of Space Invaders and gives it a retro stylish modern look. Retro inspired graphics- Most Space Invader clones ditch the retro look of the the game in favor of their own art assists. With that in mind, is Curve Digital and Puppy GameвЂ™s Titan Attacks more than just a clone of a classic arcade game of the past? Modern looks, Retro roots These clones donвЂ™t really bring anything new to game and are seen as waste of time and precious memory space. The gameplay remains the same while the art assists are changed and thatвЂ™s about it.

One of the most cloned games that IвЂ™ve seen is the iconic Space Invaders. Other clones on the other hand actually try to add their own spin to the original. Some clones are just that, clones of popular game with nothing new to offer. Assets are much easier to procure and copy, and the bar of entry has been lowered thanks to mobile devices. In gaming there will always be the inevitable clone of a very popular/iconic game, more in this era than in the past.
