Name the game: Galaga type game with birds

Post by D »

I remember playing this game in Spain when I was 12.
It's like Galaga only the enemies are mostly animated birds.
Also the boss is like a huge flying bird fortress.
The game has really bright colors of pink, red and yellow if memory serves well.
Also, does this game have ports that are any good?

Phoenix? 2600 version is good. It's also in one of the Taito Legends compilations.

This industry has become 2 dimensional as it transcended into a 3D world.

Preferred Moon Cresta myself. I preferred Amidar to Pacman as well.

My first guess was Phoenix, but I think it's Demon Attack:

It's Phoenix!
Demon Attack looks fun as well.
