Murphy Music: Game manual: manual. A shooting game featuring two-dimensional 2D graphics, the game is set on a fictional planet where the player must defeat waves of invading aliens while protecting astronauts. Development was led by Eugene Jarvis, a pinball programmer at Williams; Defender was Jarvis' first video game project and drew inspiration from Space Invaders and Asteroids. Defender was one of the most important titles of the Golden Age of Video Arcade Games, selling over 55, units to become the company's best selling game and one of the highest-grossing arcade games ever.
Praise among critics focused on the game's audio-visuals and gameplay. It is frequently listed as one of Jarvis' best contributions to the video game industry, as well as one of the most difficult video games.
Defender was ported to numerous platforms, inspired the development of other games, and was followed by sequels and many imitations. Defender is a two-dimensional side-scrolling shooting game set on the surface of an unnamed planet.
The player controls a space ship as it navigates the terrain, flying either to the left or right. A joystick controls the ship's elevation, and five buttons control its horizontal direction and weapons. The object is to destroy alien invaders, while protecting astronauts on the landscape from abduction.
Humans that are successfully abducted return as mutants that attack the ship. Defeating the aliens allows the player to progress to the next level. Failing to protect the astronauts, however, causes the planet to explode and the level to become populated with mutants. Surviving the waves of mutants results in the restoration of the planet. Players are allotted three chances lives to progress through the game and are able to earn more by reaching certain scoring benchmarks.
A life is lost if the ship comes into contact with an enemy or its projectiles. After exhausting all lives, the game ends. More details about this game can be found on Wikipedia.
Find digital download of this game on GOG or Steam. Recommended Game Controllers: You can control this game easily by using the keyboard of your PC see the table next to the game. Of course once it's sequel "Stargate" was released my quarters all went to that game.
It's so nice now having emulators and this wonderful internet arcade, because now I can relive all of those great gaming memories without the quarters. Once you get used to the keyboard controls on this one, it's every bit as fun as the arcade original and every bit as challenging and addicting.

I could not get the game to load in Microsoft Edge, but I was able to get it to load in Google Chrome.
So, if you are having trouble, try different browsers. Now to try to make it work with my X-Arcade Tankstick.

Reviewer: Dr. Klafter - favorite favorite favorite favorite - April 23, Subject: help starting the game It took me a while to figure this out. Here's what worked for me: F3 advances gets you through the diagnostics and starts the game. It will play some sounds and show a multi-color static screen a few times. Then it starts displaying graphics from the game the way it looked in the arcade, and you're ready to play Press the "5" key to add credits in order to play.
It's the same thing as putting a quarter in the machine. You'll hear the game music start. Press the "1" Key to actually start the game. The controls are just terrible. What's even worse is that due to the placement of the active keys, it's easy to hit the WINDOWS key on many keyboards, and then your start menu comes up and the browser screen is no longer receiving inputs from your keyboard. The game continues but you aren't controlling it - i. I wonder if it will work with a joystick controller.
I haven't tried it yet. It's still fun, but it will take forever to get good at it with this crazy layout.
It's super hard. Reviewer: Consoldator - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - August 18, Subject: Advance Key The F4 key is the advance Key in my computer. Reviewer: idever - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - March 17, Subject: Fun Game Needs more description I believe that there should be more description on how to actually start the game. But, it is an excellent game. Reviewer: GoodNewsJimDotCom - favorite favorite favorite favorite - November 14, Subject: This is a rare review You won't hear me saying this for any other game, but atari was a better defender than the arcade.
Unless you thing is fighting against controls which can be a thing for some people , all those buttons were confusing and hard to cerebreally digest. Still Defender is a classic. Another item missing from above - use the Z key to reverse. Great effort guys!
