Game description:
Alien Attack is a space shooter game. Your ship flies around the
screen, where you can shoot at asteroids. There are three sizes
of asteroids. When you shoot the large asteroids, they split up
into three medium size asteroids. When you shoot the medium asteroids,
they split up into three small asteroids. Small asteroids just
explode when you shoot them. Whenever an asteroid explodes and
splits up, there is a small chance that goodies will come out. The
goodies will be either shield bonuses or money. There are many upgrades
to purchase with the money.
See a spectacular screen shot!
Some weapon upgrades include:
Laser pulse cannon
4 types of bullet spray
Machine cannon
Guided Anti-Alien Mines
Some other upgrades include:
9 levels of Generators and Thrusters
9 levels of shields

How did I come up with this idea?
I came up with this idea because I wanted to write a game, and I had
seen many similar games. I thought that this might be possible to
write myself. So, I began coding about a month ago.
Future development?
I will be writing in C++ from now on, and since this program was
written in Pascal, I will not be working on this program after school
goes out.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTE!!!
I, the author of this program, did not agree to any release of the source
code, in full or in part. Please E-Mail me if the source
code is distributed via this page or a link of it.
