Space Invaders Code Challenge

We present you the first CCA code challenge!

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.
• Your project needs to be open source.
• 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

• The challenge lasts for a month. Please submit your project by Sunday, the 17th of August.
• Submit your projects here.

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!
