Holy shitballs this looks awesome. Found on GAF:
this is a action game
this time you control space invaders (300 max) to revenge and attack to the human city, forest, etc
different invaders have different kinds of attacks, barrier formations
big boss at the end of each stage

the article has not mentioned about the price and [if] the game is a wiiware game or not

    Although this has technically been done before by some 2d indy game, this looks far, far better than that flawed effort was.

    You people of course remember when I said that neat cell phone ad where they had contra in 2.5d would make an awesome idea for a game? Using super-low-rez sprites with smooth explosions and a tilted in camera with smooth shading and volumetric lighting on the sprites, and lots of depth in layers?

    This is but only the first step.

    It, uh, sounds like someone got space invaders in your pikmin.

    It's awesome they're using the original invader designs instead of 're-imagining' them or some bullshit.

    Looks more like 2-D sprite's revenge on super pretty 3-D graphics. If that's the case this is a day one purchase.
