Space Alien Invaders (Improved Version)

An enhanced Space Invaders-style game with better graphics, sounds, and gameplay.

Improvements

• High-quality pixel art sprites from OpenGameArt. Unpack the ZIPs into sprites/ with names like invader_animation_1.png, explosion_1.png.
• Added sound effects (download from https://pixabay.com/sound-effects/search/space%20invaders/ or https://classicgaming.cc/classics/space-invaders/sounds, place in sounds/ as .wav).
• Starry background, explosions, power-ups (faster bullets from UFO), pause feature.
• Responsive canvas, smoother animations, more aliens and levels.

How to Play

• Left/Right arrows: Move
• Space: Shoot
• P: Pause
• R: Restart after game over
• Destroy aliens, avoid bullets, score points!

Setup

1. Create sprites/ and unpack downloaded ZIPs (e.g., invader_animation_2.zip -> invader_animation_1.png etc.).
2. Create sounds/ and add audio files (shoot.wav, explosion.wav, ufo.wav, alien_move.wav).
3. Open index.html in browser.

Files

• index.html — Main file
• style.css — Styles
• main.js — Game logic
• sprites/ — Images
• sounds/ — Audio

Troubleshooting

• Open browser console (F12) to see errors if canvas doesn't display.
• If sprites or sounds fail to load, check file names and paths in main.js.
• Ensure all files are in the same directory as index.html.
