2025-12-29: I have restored the wiki to a backup from the end of November. Starting in September 2025, accesses went form the 800MB-1.2GB range per month to 26GB in September, 42GB in October, and 70GB in November with most accesses originating from China. As soon as I realized what was causing all the access problems in November, I shut it down (it had reached 36GB by then) behind a password/login screen. The database had gotten corrupted, and I tried a restore from just before the spike in access but that didn't work. Thus, end of November. I still have the other daily backups so if there were any important additions in December, let me know and maybe they can be recovered. - Allen H.

Color Space Invaders was the first commercial clone of the arcade smash Space Invaders available for the Coco.It was also the closest version graphically until Mark Data Products Space Raiders came out. A good copy of the arcade space shoot-em-up. I have just added an earlier version screenshot showing the original name of the company, before it became Spectral Associates (it was originally known as Barnett & Bank Brothers). I have not been able to verify this; I am hoping somebody that was around that early in the Cocos history will know if this is correct or not.
