Love retro shooters? Firebird is a blend of some of our teams favourite games from the space invasion genre. Battle aliens, giant space birds, tractor beams, air burst weapons, robot terrorists and massive motherships in a fight for domination.

JimJams games are a small, indie development team with a love for the retro games of the '80's and 90's. We only develop games that embrace that era, aiming to provide true classic styled gaming, with a massive retro feel. We don't aim to develop AAA games, but simply to bring our passion for a time gone by to those who truly love classic themed and inspired games. If this is a genre and era that you love, then our games are for you. Firebird is another classically inspired arcade zap 'em up. This time we've taken our cue from the alien shooters of the late 1980's. Firebird brings together a whole host of the features and effects we have all loved from the space invasion genre and puts them all together for some action packed, fast paced blasting chaos. Features Repel an ever-adapting alien invasion force over 19 increasingly challenging, levels. 1) Fight classic style invaders 2) Dodge and weave as they learn to divebomb 3) Watch out for the alien terrorist drop troops 4) Avoid alien super bombs, which spread shrapnel across the screen 5) Dodge alien tractor beams and deathrays! 6) Over 40 different player upgrades available 7) Protect yourself with energy shields, advanced drones and ghost ships 8) Blast the enemy in all directions 9) Pick up smart bombs for instant kills 10) Come face to face with the alien mothership
