Arduino Space Invaders Clone

This clone of the classic Space Invaders game runs on the Arduino Duemillinove with the Liquidware TouchShield Slide and the Sparkfun 3 Axis Accelerometer. Using the accelerometer as a tilt sensor to control the movement of your defender and tapping the screen (running my 1.4 firmware) to fire.

got my stuff ordered for an xmas gift!! gonna copy you lol :) my screen is only the 128*128 one but im excited..

That's great 1260! The Stealth has the same chip as the Slide so you should just have to modify the code to fit the screen size. Keep an eye out for my new Arduino OS coming as soon as my SparkFun order gets here

The source is available for free on Liquidware in the app store.

Hey friend I have to do something similar like this, I was looking for the source code but I never found on the app store... So, Could you help me??? Thanks a lot, nice job!!!

If you sort the enemies by location you can greatly increase hit test rate using a binary search. Also if you treat the whole block of enemies as a big object, you can move them back and forth in O(1).
