Gameplay
Across thirty levels, the player controls a character named Generic Marine (abbreviated G), who has to defend the Earth on the Moon from a Martian alien invasion. The hero can choose from a laser, a gun, and a rocket launcher as weapons and can use a jet pack. The Martians can only shoot their lasers at close range. The hero can collect power-ups to purchase weapons, ammo, health, and jet pack fuel. After releasing for the App Store on August 20, 2009, it has become unavailable.
Reception
Robert Workman, of Modojo, said that the game reminds him of 1950s sci-fi, has a good soundtrack, and that he enjoys seeing the aliens explode. His problems with it is that the game is repetitive and that the later levels are really hard.
