DEMON ATTACK???

Marooned on the ice planet Krybor, you watch legions of eerie creatures scream overhead. They hover ominously. They give you no quarter. Attack and destroy them, or be destroyed! Armed with your Laser Cannon, you confront the ultimate challenge: SURVIVE!..................Or so you thought. Seems like that was just the training mission. Now prepare for the REAL THING!! INVADER X!!

Invader X is still coming. It should be available in June. I am having t-shirts made up to go with the game (see mock-up below).

There will also be a few alien related throw-ins in the package. They will not affect the overall price.
1 confirmed item:

http://216.77.188.54/coDataImages/p/Groups/140/140741/pages/485412/121457.gif
Alien Test Tube Slime. Each 3 3/4" plastic container is filled with a handful of goo surrounding a 1 3/4" glow-in-the-dark alien.

Right now I am leaning toward having the T-Shirt as a reward for reaching 1500-2000 points. That is not an easy score to reach unless you actually play the game (or Demon Attack) and it is an incentive for people to play the game instead of just filing it away in their collections.

I am having 20-30 carts made of this one, but probably only 15-20 T-Shirts due to the cost. Starting with the release of Invader X, I will not take orders for the game untill I have the carts in hand ready to ship. No more reserves or pre-orders (Everyone who wants a cart will get one).

I am looking for some type of UFO or Alien box (plastic or cardboard) to pack the game in, If anybody sees something like that (in bulk) please give me a heads-up on where it is at.

This is much more then a Graphics Hack. There have been changes in the difficulty as well as the attack patterns. The scoring system has also been changed. Think you are good at Demon Attack?? Step up to Invader X!!!

Did you end up not using my award winning graphic? :(

No offense to you or the artist, but that's not a very good label. The fonts look like hell, you can hardly tell there's an "X" in the title, everything's cropped together pretty badly, and the alien graphic is stolen. If you're really making a T-shirt out of THAT, you should at least re-do the Atari graphics on the bottom. That anti-aliasing is going to look like shit.

I will still be getting some Invader X carts made with your winning label:

You should be getting a copy in June. :)

Which version of ship would you like to have in your version?

You're right, that is just a cut and paste job to get the look. I will be getting a real artist to make the final version (Which may be completely different). When I have a final version I will post it here.

Next time, don't hold back. Tell me what you really think. ;)

I liked the ship in the second screen shot, but that's just me.

For the contest I either did all my own artwork or used public domain graphics, since the labels were being printed up.

I thought the contest was a blast and I can't wait for the next one.

I'm a little disappointed that the winning label won't be used on all the carts though. :( Oh well.
