Jake in the desertBummed, I just noticed the Space Invaders: World Defense app doesn't really work anymore-- it doesn't connect to the servers or high scores, it errors out when you try and play outside.
Space Invaders: World Defense came out in 2023 and was really cool, it had an AR aspect, you could go outside and see the ships coming down in the real world. I messed around with it some back then and took some photos, but I can't find them. Should've messed around with it more then. I guess they shut it down a while ago, I can't find any info on when. It's also not in the Play store anymore.
You'd think a company like Taito could keep servers running for more than just a couple years 🙄 but I guess not. Reminds me of when I was super bummed when the Puzzle Fighter app was shut down many years ago - that one was fun as hell too.
Well, RIP Space Invaders: World Defense. Here's the intro screen and a screenshot of what you can still do in the app now- it's super limited. I was able to fly around and blast things but no scores were recorded and everything else errored out when trying to contact the servers.
