A strange little side quest
Danger Planet belongs to a much longer story of play than a browser tab might suggest. Our solar system formed about 4.6 billion years ago from a cloud of gas and dust collapsing under gravity. The surprising part is how quickly the next milestone followed. Space Invaders arrived in 1978 and helped turn electronic games from an arcade curiosity into mainstream entertainment. So a round of Danger Planet is not just a quick distraction; it is a tiny stop on a much longer space timeline.
