Space Invaders Code Challenge

We present you the first CCA code challenge!

Submissions

Thanks for everyone who participated. We have some really cool invaders. We hope you enjoyed the challenge and see you next time!

Here are all of the submissions.

Guidelines

  • The goal is to create a program related to Space Invaders.
  • Interpret the theme as loosely as you like! Generate invaders or spaceships, make a game, produce some bleep-bloops... raster, vector, 3D, shader, audio, video... space is the limit!
  • Use any programming language and library.
  • Ideally, if it runs on the web, it would be nice to see it live - on openprocessing, p5live, codepen, github pages, netlify... If you need help with this, we can assist.
  • If it is visual, please submit a screenshot.
  • Collaborations are encouraged!

Note regarding the theme - we know that some people struggle to start if the theme is too loose. So, if you feel stuck, here's something more specific:

  • Space Invader generator, 2D or 3D. Use a rectangular grid and generate a random invader in pixels or voxels. Feel free to play with color, size and shape.

Deadline

Other

  • We are going to collect all of the submissions and host a showcase page on our website.
  • If there is enough interest, we can do a whole Space Invaders meetup! In any case, we encourage you to share your work at the next meetup.

Prize

We'll do a vote in Discord and whoever gets the most votes wins a box of chocolates! Chocolate will be handed out in person at the next meetup! If you're unable to attend, we'll gladly share chocolates and think of you! :)

Hope you'll have fun!
