Well, it's done. I can already see ways to improve it, but the idea was more "can I make an invaders clone?", and I think I've shown that yes, yes I can.
I've learned a lot here. How to fling a million sprites around at once. Sound effects. Using tables in tables in tables to create level layouts. I used shortcuts (asset reuse) of course, but ultimately I've made a playable, if pretty simple, game.
Oh, and there's a Super Secret (not really - look at the code) cheat mode that gives you an extra life and reduces the fire rate of the catvaders. You might need it because the game is a bit hard. Too hard for me, anyway!
