Space Invaders Infinity Gene -iOS / PSN / XBLA

[MisterBubbles]

Downloaded the demo and played 5 minutes and purchased the PS3 version, it awesome , love the retro feel. Its feels like a cross between space invaders extreme and the best doujin games, which is no bad thing in itself, loads to do , see and shoot.

The 360 version is even better than the iOS version. The scale and larger playing area adds to the game no end. I am glad they retained the art style and music from the mobile version as it works so well on the big screen. I think this will be the sleeper hit of the year like Galaga Legions. A must buy IMHO.

So glad the game has a first played thread, this is one of the best shooters I have played in a long time.

Looking every minute of it on the 360, only problem is it can be a little crazy on the eyes when playing on a 32 inch telly.

Is it me or is the achievement picture for "HIGH SCORE OF 10,000,000" looks some what dodgey?

Great game really can't tell people enough how good it is!!

hehehe, yep. Looks a bit dodgey allright. Got thsi myself yesterday. I've only reached level 3-1 so far but I am liking it. I agree about some of the graphics messing up your eays on a big screen. I use a 37 inch LED which really does make you feel cross eyed.

I can imagine, one for short bursts at a time. The later stages really do remind me of Rez, the last couple of levels are stunning. I've finished the normal mode but there is tons of stuff to unlock and I haven't scratched any of the other modes.

Has anyone noticed how the audio is broken? Many times the sound effects just cut of or there's a slight jolt in the music. I play all games in 5.1 surround so I wonder if that has anything to do with it?

what's the nagoya attack ? i never got this chieve on the other game on 360 ? cheers, i will buy this as soon as i get some points. anyone played KOF skystage ?

[MisterBubbles]

nagoya attack is just after and invader shoots at you and you shoot at them , your invicible for a few seconds to their bullets and can pass through them, the bullets flash showing you can pass through them.

In the demo music mode is locked, but is it really what it sounds like? I get the impression that it does Vib Ribbon/Internal Section style level generation from your own music (via CD or playlist?)

Surely not, that is too good to be true...

That's how it works on the iPhone version.

And the PS3 version.

Hmm i have noticed that it can sound a bit low tech & scratchy but im wondering if it's the music style. Im just through plain stereo but never heard the music jolt or things cut out. You could always delete it & re-download in case it went iffy as it downloaded.

Tried the demo & i found it suprisingly fun, ended up shelling 800 points for the full ver. The full game is nothing like the demo though as you have to slowly upgrade. But im loving the take on the space invaders genre. It's pretty tricky in places but im determined to get to the end hehe.

I really like how it starts out where it looks like your just playing original space invaders then the whole thing just goes off.

Maybe something went wrong with my install? I originally downloaded the demo like you then upgraded to the full game.

I looked it up on google and I found its about shooting every row of enemies, except for the upper one. Then let it come all the way down.

Seems that was for classic SI

EDIT: seems I figured it.

Nagoya attack is in Infinity Gene nothing more than the first few frames of an enemy bullet. In other words, just right after its being shot you can fly through them and rack up combo. A good way to do this is in 1-5, against those big guys who shoot the lasers. Just keep flying right under their nose, and do not kill them. Witness the Nagoya counter rack up, I had about 100 ish.

Hell knows how im going to get 1000 nagoya attacks in a stage i can barely manage 10 lol. Did the 1500 chain easily though
