Space Invaders Part II
released on Jan 25, 1981
This game was released in America by Midway in 1980 as Space Invaders Deluxe. "Deluxe" uses a color overlay, however, instead of a color monitor. The only difference in gameplay between the two is the point value of the blinking saucer: 500 in Space Invaders Part II, but only 200 in Space Invaders Deluxe. Oddly enough, Midway's Space Invaders Deluxe displays the name Space Invaders Part II during the attract mode. All other references to the game (promotional material, manual, service bulletins, labels on the motherboard, serial number tags inside the cabinet, monitor glass, etc.) say Space Invaders Deluxe. This is most likely because the licensing agreement between Taito and Midway only allowed certain minor changes to the program code.

Almost identical to its predecessor. No variation in gameplay besides a new enemy, the graphics are almost the same just with new colors and the stages remain the same thing. I was expecting a better experience.
No better or worse than the original, which begs the question of why this even existed (other than being a cheap cash grab).
It's practically the exact same as the original Space Invaders, except there is one new enemy type, it looks better, and there is a cutscene. I can't criticize it too much, because it's from 1979, but lemme tell ya, this fits RIGHT in with gaming today, with shit like Call of Duty and Overwatch 2, where they just rerelease the same game with like one or two things changed.

E assim foram plantadas as sementes de vender um jogo essencialmente igual ao anterior como "sequência" que a EA colheria abundantemente no futuro.
