Space Invaders

Brief

A personal project undertaken to improve my AS3 skills when I was starting out. The design of the screen layout was based upon a raw screenshot derived from the original 1978 arcade version of Space Invaders. I wanted the gameplay to reflect the original as accurately as possible.

Implementation

Written in AS3 using a range of custom classes; Invader, Player, Bullet, Spaceship, Defence. Much of the movement within the game is created by combinig AS3 Timer events with coded tweens using the popular TweenMax library by Greensock.

The source code is available on Google Code…
