Kill the Attacking Aliens

Kill the Attacking Aliens (KTAA for short) is a homebrew Videopac/Odyssey² game developed by programmer Sören Gust. Sören is a member of Xype, an informal group of programmers who create exceptional games for classic consoles, so KTAA has been published under the Xype label.

The first release of KTAA occurred in 2004. It consisted of a cartridge and oversized white manual. This version was sold until November 2012. A second edition was released as of March 5, 2014, when Packrat Video Games began selling KTAA with a standard-sized manual, featuring new cover artwork done in the Videopac+ style. This release is still being sold for $25. KTAA is an unusual Space Invaders-type game where you must shoot down invading alien saucers while protecting your houses and trees from their devastating bombs. This HUGE game features some complicated action and animation, as well as enhanced background graphics when run in G7400 mode!

Prior to the game's final release, two sets of freely-distributable demo ROMs (playable with O2EM v.87 and higher) were made available. They may be downloaded through the links below.
