Master Blaster

This is an arcade game based on Space Invaders although the alien spaceships move a lot faster and do not follow a simple pattern down the screen. The cover story relates how Dreyfus the Dread, Galactic Assassin has had to retire and aspiring candidates looking to fill the vacancy need to prove their worthiness of the title of Master Blaster by completing a trial consisting of a computer game, spread across 20 levels.

You are restricted in that you can only move your gun left and right and only one bullet is allowed on the screen at a time. Don't let the aliens hit your gun!
