Emulation
Guides on emulating older games

Warbirds is reminiscent of the old Phoenix game found in the arcades. It has always been one of my personal favorites, along with Galaxian and Pac-Man.

Unfortunately, I don't have access to a Phoenix machine anymore, so I could not determine the exact features of the game except from memory. Luckily, some people have suggested ways to make it look and play more like the original.

The aim is to kill the Master Alien in wave 5. You do this by shooting the mother ship's lower defenses and by shooting holes in its moving defense belt, so that your fire can reach the Master Alien. Beware! The mother ship is guarded by small warbirds...
