Shoot your way through the Alien shifting shields to give yourself a clean shot at the attacking Alien Queens!

Shield Shifter 2009 by John A. Reder - This game is a spiritual Successor to Strip-Off and answers the question where did all of those lost Shield parts go after the aliens took them away. :)

How to begin from title screens:

- To start Single player Mode = press fire on Player 1 Joystick.

- To start Two player Mode = press fire on Player 2 Joystick.

Player 1 Objective:

- The game ends when you loose all three of your fighter ships.

- You score 500 points for each alien Queen destroyed.

- You score 1 point for each first level shield block destroyed.

- You score 5 points for each second level shield block destroyed.
