Defender

Literally 'd e f e n d ' h u m a noids. Stick close to them and zap those landers. There are big points in saving humanoids! I f all is clear, allow the lander to take the humanoid, then shoot. Catch and replace the humanoid vertically (i.e. go down immediately) and you've scored 1,150 points just like that!

Being the best player on Defender – I was the greatest on earth for the first week of its release.
