Defender is a clone of ... Defender. If you've never played the classic arcade game, it's a horizontal shooter where you must eliminate all of the aliens before they abduct all the humans. This version controls fairly well and captures the look and feel of the original game quite nicely. There's the minimap which shows the locations of the aliens and humans, and the satisfaction of blowing up your enemies and seeing them explode in a cloud of pixels. I'm not sure how many levels you get in the shareware version but what's here is pretty good.
