The classic Space Invaders game written in JavaScript as a learning exercise.

No jQuery or any other third party libraries, just raw JavaScript, CSS and HTML.

What's there to say? It's Space Invaders in JavaScript!

Create the game, give it a div to draw to, tell it when the keyboard is mashed and that's all you need to add Space Invaders to a website.

This is a simple learning exercise, so the JavaScript is deliberate kept all one file. There's no linting, testing, CI, or anything like that.
