Squarepusher: Chaos Invaders

I was only a figment of my father's inexhaustible libido when Space Invaders came out, but I appreciate this nonetheless. Indie dev Bit Battalion (creator of the stellar Mr. Runner) writes to tell us about his new game, Chaos Invaders, which is sort of like Space Invaders playing out in a wind tunnel. Sacrifice a minute or two and go and have some fun. Trailers and info below.

So, yeah. Instead of just shooting the aliens, you knock them out of place and can then fire them back at the horde. Bit Battalion writes that "Its music, visuals and feel all add to this chaotic, fast-paced gameplay so it really appeals to players with the shortest of attention spans". I love a dev who knows his audience.
