Invader Tactics

About

Invader Tactics is a sci-fi survival combat roguelike written in Common Lisp using the RLX game library.. You are a human infiltrating an enemy installation populated by psychotic robots. Use melee attacks, ranged particle weapons, ion shields, and oxygen tanks in a hostile airless environment. The way is always down—try to reach the bottom and eliminate all the robots! Find powerups for strength, speed, and defense in order to turn the odds. Recover oxygen and energy from dead crewmembers' bodies.

Invader is in an early alpha stage of development—quite playable, but not feature-complete and with some crashes/bugs. Please play Invader and provide feedback!
