Canvas Invaders Jason Brown created this quick clone of the classic Space Invaders game as a canvas learning experience.

This is a pretty straight-forward Space Invaders clone. The only significant change from the original Space Invaders game is that in Canvas Invaders there are no bunkers to hide behind.

As the name suggests, the game employs the canvas element to do the graphics and while it's perfectly possible to make a game such as this using standard DHTML, I still think it's nice to see more games take advantage of the canvas.

Great game, but you can just hold down space and obliterate the aliens! In the original you could only have one shot "live" at a time. Awesome coding demo though :0)

I know its not too challenging :? just something I threw together over the weekend to expand my canvas knowledge. Working on a few more implementations.
