About thirty years ago, I worked in the Preliminary Design Department for a major toy manufacturer. Part of the daily routine on the development team was to play with contemporary games and toys to foster a sense of what kids might like. I remember one of the popular video games at the time was Space Invaders, where alien ships entered the atmosphere and it was the game player’s job to shoot ’em down.
Since I am interested in development of on-line applications, I subscribe to a blog where Flash™ animation development is discussed. Last week there was a post about a game submitted to the developer’s forum called SWiSH Invaders. It is strongly reminiscent of the game I played (and was never very good at) 30 years ago. I post the game here for your amusement and, if you happen to remember that game, nostalgia.
Link to the on-line game is here.
Would appreciate knowing the name of the blog where Flash animation development is discussed. I need to get my Java and Flash skills up to date. Thanks much.

Hey Tom,
The site is http://blog.swishzone.com/. SWiSH is the application I use for Flash and this is their blog to discuss their products.
