Thanks! :)
I aimed for old-school difficulty and that glowing ball (core) is there to offset some of it, once certain conditions are met.
A sort of expansion is available for Advanced Invaders. Could be interesting to those interested in game development :)
Binary Void is а tutorial template Unity game project, derived from Advanced Invaders. Nearly everything that Advanced Invaders game offers you can learn how to make in Unity, with the help of this, in-detail explained, project. It comes with various assets, which include 6800 lines of organized and commented C# code and a 90-page PDF walkthrough that explains all those assets, in approachable and friendly way to common gaming folk. This project features and explains a lot of elements useful for variety of games as well as that general structure that often accompany games of whatever genre (such as saving stuff in files, tweaking options, rebinding controls within the game, etc.).

Hi everyone! My first game on ITCH.IO is up and running.
In short, this game is a classic arcade game with campaign through Solar system and retro-style action :)
Advanced Invaders is similar to Space Invaders. It is a challenging shoot 'em up game in style of retro arcade machines. It features a sci-fi campaign through Solar system (intro-levels-outro), multiple weapons, enemies, bosses and some surprises.
The player is in control of a ground vehicle, with objective to shoot down all hostile formations on the battlefield. Depending on player's performance, various aid (like weapon boxes or force shields) will be deployed on the field during the battle. Only when all swarms of invaders are destroyed, the player can proceed to the next level, unless enemy capital ship (AKA boss) decides to show up.
