SPECIAL NOTICE: Our weekly score chasing recap live stream on Twitch is now Sundays at 6:30am PST (GMT-8). For a couple years we did this show on Saturday mornings but we’ve moved to Sundays instead. Hopefully this doesn’t conflict with attending church, but there’s always the VOD if you miss the live stream with Brady and me.
This week’s featured games are Space Invaders (arcade) and Gorf (arcade).
Season 3, Week 15 of Score Chasing begins Saturday, December 14, 2024 at 12:00:01 PST (GMT-8) featuring Space Invaders, the arcade version and bonus score chasing the more modern Gorf. This article will tell you everything you need to know about how to join our group and play both games.
PLEASE NOTE: this score chasing event is for adults, age 18 and older, so if you aren’t yet 18, then please return when you are.
First, let’s learn more about Space Invaders (arcade). How is the game played via Space Invaders – Videogame by Midway Manufacturing Co. | Museum of the Game
The original space alien vertical shooter. Move your tank back and forth along the bottom of the screen and shoot endless waves of aliens marching towards earth. Shoot the flying saucer for extra points.

This will take you directly to the official PGM iScored Score Chasing Scoreboard at the spot where you will enter your score on this week’s featured game. Where can you play? Here are a few suggestions (alphabetical order) but is not a complete list by any means:
- Arcade – yes, check your local area for barcades, arcades, mallcades, etc. You might have an arcade machine nearby and play might still be a quarter!
- Various Emulated / MAME / CoinOpsX / etc – emulated versions are allowed, but we do not typically link to these sources.
- Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch – search the stores for consoles for “arcade archives” as sometimes there are licensed versions of the games we feature available.
Now that you have located where to play, simply start playing to establish your personal best score. The goal of score chasing is not a typical leaderboard high score, be the top score tournament. We simply want you to play and beat your personal best.

LIVE on Sunday December 22, 2024 at 6:30am PST (GMT-8) we will recap prior week’s scores, submitted along with kicking off next week’s game. Brady & I will talk about and launch the next featured game we are score chasing at our official Twitch channel here: https://www.twitch.tv/playgamesmoredotcom
After submitting a score, you can (optionally) join our invite-only PGM Discord adult gamer group and become a member for free. To do that, simply contact any member of the group and/or stop by the live stream and tell us a bit about yourself. We’d love to have you, as long as you are interested in playing games more. More information about PGM is available on the About Play Games More page of this website.
Missed this event? No worries you can still compete and submit your scores after the event is over.
Hi Todd!
I dont have either game on my Coinops and don’t have consoles so I”m out this week. I hope your having a fun weekend!
Wow, Coinops doesn’t have Space Invaders?! I can see Gorf being a bit of an outlier, but Space Invaders? It’s on Antstream, you have that.
