    Trivia: space invaders has one of the first bug turned features.
    The creator wanted the aliens to move the same throughout, but the limits of his hardware made them slow at first.
    The more aliens destroyed however freed up more processor space, so everything moved faster. The creator liked how it made the game more dynamic so kept it in :)

      Pause the video and use period key to frame advance. Each 1/60th of a second, the player moves, player bullet moves, and one -- and only one -- invader moves. (Invader bullets move every 3rd frame). So when there are 3 invaders left (name them A, B and C), each frame moves invader A, then B, then C, A, B, C, etc. This would keep the processing consistent for each frame. So it's not like processing was freed up per-se (though that's a good high level way to explain it), it was that only so much could be accomplished in 1/60th of a second, and this decision was programmed into the gameplay (identical processing is performed no matter what's going on, on-screen) which creates a deterministic system.

  • @EHH246
    @EHH246 3 года назад +439

    Fun fact: The reason the aliens got faster as you shot more and more of them was because of an unintentional consequence of the computer able to process them faster due to fewer aliens being on the screen. The programmer decided to keep it in as a feature to make the game more challenging.

I was just an annoying little brother. I was transfixed on this game. The sounds alone bring back some many memories. I can just close my eyes and listen to the sounds of this game and go right back to her room. Thank you, Lex, for the memories. I love you so much big sis.

    I remember years ago when I visited a college campus while in high school. I went to the arcade room and saw Space Invaders for the first time during the 80s. I dropped in one quarter and had a blast playing the game. I became hooked ever since to the 80s arcades of that time. Boy, I really miss those days. Given a chance, I'd spend all those quarters again the same way without any regret. :)

    The game can move 1 alien every screen refresh. It is very obvious when all the aliens are on the screen. As you run out of aliens, turn to move for each alien comes faster. I used to move them all at the same time when i remade it. Its one of the first things i do when i learn a new programming language as its not so hard to do (when you dont care if it plays or looks like the original - e.g. : boxes for aliens, no title screen, no sfx etc.). Last year i recorded a session of my playthrough of the arcade with mame and split the video in to jpgs. That changed my perspective in re-making the game.

    My parents had an Atari 2600 when I was growing up in the 90s. It's probably still in their loft somewhere. Fond memories of playing 2-player with my Dad, playing with my brother, and watching my Dad and my auntie play it 🙂 Breakout and some of the plane games were good too.

      @@jphataraki6764 100%, I still love and respect the purity of old Arcade games, equally happy playing this as I am any recognised PC gaming classic. Graphics are no barrier for entry, such a travesty what's happened to game, still at least we have the classics it's important to preserve them.

    Here is what I remember about my first time playing Space Invaders; it was back in the 70's and it was located in a tiny little mom-and-pop convenient store in Oroville, CA, called, Smiling A. What I remember of the screen was this; it had a two or three transparent color filter screens that essentially made the White Aliens look colored - it was two or three colors (not sure now); there may have been green but I memory of it is a bit foggy. However, the filter ran across the screen from left to right on top, I think it was blue, the middle of the screen was reddish in color, and the bottom, maybe white... but it had a color filter on the screen. Perhaps this was their first attempt at trying to create color separation for the game when it didn't have it in its programming.

    This sound meant you were on holiday and in the arcade. Never liked the game but later on (late 80s and 90s) I like the sound for nostalgia.

  • @Game-The-System

    Fun fact:
    The original arcade graphics were all the same color: white.
    The screen cover had a transparent res strip at the top and transparent green strip at the bottom to "color" the space ship, the bases and your "missile launcher."
