Looks pretty good, TT ! If you want, try out a program I wrote that builds random invaders too.

The advantage of mine is a few checks are made.
[1] All pixels must touch each other.
[2] All random pixels are checked to ensure that each side (x=0) (x=3) (y=0) (y=7) are touched at least once.
Uses between 9-16 randomly placed dots for each invader sprite.
If you want the source, lemme know and I'll send it to you. :)
Awesome!
BTW, played for a while. The world is scrolling the opposite direction in front of my eyes now :-)))
@ dw817: I was inspired by your program.
This program has incorporated the idea.
thank you.
Welp, feel free to adjust if you like. Where pixels touch, and all touch edges. Also, you might try SRAND to force your invaders to appear the same each time.
The advantage is the player will be familiar with the early set but be hungry to see the new ones. As you have it, it's random all the way.
And, DARNIT ! I wanted to make a topview shooter using my method - sometime later - with SRAND, but you beat me to it. :D
