If you find yourself getting irritated with all the tripe and want some good, old fashioned fun, then today's App of the Day is for you. Brightly coloured basic look pixel graphics, aliens and space; it has to be... You're a space ship from Earth sent to stop a horde of aliens moving left across the screen and then right across the screen moving down one line at a time as they do so on their way to destroy mankind.
