Reworked all Upgrade Progressions! Upgrades now give a much bigger boost early on while later upgrades provide a smaller increase of power.

The option to show your last runs result from the High Score menu has been added.
Gamepad Rumble was added; This can be deactivated in the Options menu.

Drones will now not be killed at the end of a wave.

Smaller Changes:

Added a warning sound when a Convoy Freighter is hit by friendly fire.
ESC (B/Circle on the controller) will now go back from all menus.
The game is now muted when the game windows is not focused.
Waves end quicker when all enemies have been killed.

Fixes:

Beat Invaders is a space-themed shoot-em-up with a musical twist! A convoy of space freighters needs to ship their cargo - the hottest music tracks in town - to the beat-hungry interstellar clubs scattered across the galaxy. However, their path is blocked by swarms of music-hating hordes! It’s your job to protect those freighters at all costs, and help the universe to dance the night away once more!

Your delivery isn’t all that’s musical, too - so are the enemies! Gameplay is set to an expansive EDM soundtrack, and your opponents’ movements and firing rates are dictated by each song’s beat and tempo. With each round, the music gets faster and more complex, and so do the horde’s capabilities! Can you keep up with the beat and avoid defeat?

Features:

Retro Space Invaders style gameplay for that arcade nostalgia, but with slick modern graphics and gorgeous background visualisers
Atmospheric electronic and vocal soundtrack with 21 tracks that sets the pace of your adversaries, making each round unique to its song
Upgrade your ship’s attack and defence systems between enemy waves
Boss battle! The chief music-hater makes his appearance, and it ain’t pretty!
High score challenge! Compare your scores to other Beat Invaders players across the world, and try to beat their records!
Full mouse, keyboard and controller support
