Defender

Description:

The planet's fate is in your hands.

Landers, Bombers, Baiters, Pods and Swarmers.
The alien attack has come, and defeat at the hands of crazed invaders threatens the humanoids.
Their only hope is the spaceship, Defender.

Armed with smart bombs and able to shift into hyperspace,
Defender evens the score only to become the object of another foul attack; kidnapped humanoids transformed into killer mutants !.
