Space Invaders
Not to be confused by the level of the same name by Deeper Space.
Template:Infobox Level Space Invaders is a 2.2 Easy Demon Event level created and published by Subwoofer. It is the 17th and the current Event level, succeeding Backbeat Revenge.
Gameplay
Space Invaders begins with an intro and normal-speed cube gameplay. The screen is cut into a square because of the Gboy Color console. Afterwards, the screen transitions to a city with double-speed gameplay. The cube then breaks into a building, with a table and a plant inside. Behind that, is another cube just looking at the player, before turning back as the cube exits. It turns into a spider, with somewhat tight gameplay, but not too hard. The player then breaks through glass of another building, as it has mini-cube gameplay.
The scene transitions into a triple-speed robot with the screen zoomed out. The jumps are a bit tight, and the player soon hops on top of a train, where they have to jump over signs and eventually end up in a train station with just a pair of jumps; one of them being over a cube's pointy hat that works as a spike. Afterwards, the robot turns into a ship, with easy gameplay before becoming a cube again.
The song calms down, preparing for the pre-drop as the camera zooms in to a TV playing a news report of a UFO sighting. The player appears in this TV as a mini cube and must avoid obstacles shown in it. Then, the player becomes a regular sized cube with slow speed as the pre-drop begins. This part features easy gameplay that ends with the player hitting multiple pink orbs that end with a red orb as a red alien spaceship appears in the background.
The level's title appears, and the song hits the drop, starting with triple speed ship gameplay, followed by a mini wave in which the player must avoid red cubes with green wings by going up and down in a pattern. After hitting 2 green orbs as a cube afterwards, the player becomes a wave and must hit a green dash orb first before following a pattern indicated by green dots, which is then followed by a ball then another cube that ends with the player getting launched by a hammer into a short and reversed mini cube section, followed by a spider part as the player enters an elevator in a short break.
The player is then launched into a triple speed UFO section, then a mini UFO section after a very brief green dash orb input as a cube. During the mini UFO, there is a teleportation part in which the player must time their inputs with the circular portals to successfully teleport. A cube with an upwards slope and a single black orb input brings the player to a ship part where they must avoid obstacles emerging from the ground and a green laser, which is followed by a red orb input into a mini size portal, then a cube portal, then back to the ship but at regular size, where a yellow orb input followed by 2 green orb inputs must be made. The ship part ends with obstacles featuring rocks and a submarine levitating off the water due to the red spaceship firing a laser at the water.
Past this is a WIP.
User coins
Note: All coins have a start position at the start of the minigame.
The first coin is located at 12%. The player has to go up to a gap that will lead them to a portal. It can be identified by the billboard, "Crazy mysterious portals stealing our coins!" implying that the player is getting coins from other cubes. The portal then leads the player to a short level, with a custom song.

- The difficulty of this level can range from an Insane (9 stars) to a Medium Demon.
The second coin is located at 34%. To get there, the player has to collect a key in 25% by skipping a gravity portal, and not hitting the blue orb. Then, at 34%, the player has to make an early input before the gravity portal to go down, leading to a portal.
- The song is Press Start (Smooth Jazz Remix) by MDK. It is in the music library.
