## What is Pete Invaders?

A fun and fast-paced arcade shooter inspired by Space Invaders — now with emojis taking over space!

Jump into a colorful retro-style space shooter where waves of emoji invaders attack from above. From smileys to hearts, they may look friendly… but they’re not here to play nice.

Dodge incoming fire, blast enemies with your lasers, and survive as long as you can in this addictive arcade challenge. Collect hearts to gain extra lives or boost your score, and prepare yourself — powerful boss emojis will test your reflexes and skill.

Power up your ship with fun and unpredictable abilities:
• Become invulnerable and fly through danger
• Activate mirror play for double the action
• Unleash the mysterious chicken bomb 

But watch out — space is full of surprises:
• Flying jellyfish drifting into your path
• Sneaky ninjas striking when you least expect it
• Rogue boxing gloves ready to knock you out

Toddler Mode
A relaxed, no-pressure mode for younger players. Constant invulnerability, slower pace, and a perfect way to introduce the next generation to classic arcade gameplay — or just enjoy a more laid-back experience.

Features:
• Classic arcade shooter gameplay
• Retro space action with a modern emoji twist
• Unique enemies, hazards, and boss battles
• Fun power-ups that change the way you play
• Toddler mode with no death and slower gameplay
• Easy to pick up, hard to master
• Perfect for quick play sessions or high-score chasing

Can you stay cool and survive the emoji invasion?
