Space Invaders
A pixel-art Space Invaders remake with level progression and sound, written in deliberately teachable code.
How to play
Slide your cannon along the bottom and pick off the descending alien fleet while dodging return fire. Clear the screen and the next wave comes faster and thicker.
Arrow keys and space.
Integration notes
The commit history reads like book chapters — one lesson per commit — which makes it a ready-made 'build your own game' textbook. A natural fit for a retro-arcade section.
