Thought I've seen a space invaders source somewhere lately. Anyone?

uh, I mean a 2D Space Invaders, like the original (is that still copyright protected?)

I wanted to save some time since a lot of people did one. Like I posted a lot of my work, I thought I may use the SI remake code of somebody else.

I just came back from blitzcoder, there are a dozen or so clones, some of them with source and public domain. Now I am not sure anymore - is that space invaders, where the alien bees attack flying in circles, well some of them?

You are thinking of Galaxian or Galaga.

Yes, it is. Here's why: Check out #4. How long do copyrights take to expire? under Copyright questions
