Story
=====

A small group of aliens has invaded the planet of Numeria!

Your mission is to:

* Save all the people. Do this by tagging each person you find, they will then be teleported to safety!

* Defeat all the invaders! Select the attack mode and then click on any on-screen invader.
  You will then be asked a question, get it correct for your attack to succeed!

Along your way you will find various upgrades and items to help you!
