Space Invaders: Reborn

You control a lone cannon at the bottom of the screen, moving it left and right. Your job is to shoot the descending grid of aliens before they reach the bottom or overwhelm you with their own fire. You can use the destructible barriers for cover, though the aliens' shots chip away at them over time. The pace starts slow but builds tension as the formation gets lower and their movement speeds up. The game feels like a race against a steadily advancing clock.
