# Space Invaders

An emulation of [Space Invaders (1978)](https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Space_Invaders).

![demo](./assets/demo.webp)

This project contains an 8080 emulator and the necessary fake hardware bits to run the original Space Invaders arcade ROM. It features:

- cycle accurate timing

- sound and input

- changing settings

- different color overlays

See [Screenshots](#screenshots) for more!

## Installation

Get a pre-built binary from the [Releases](https://github.com/braheezy/space-invaders/releases) page.

Or, install with Go:

    go install github.com/braheezy/space-invaders

Or, clone the repository and use `make`:

    git clone https://github.com/braheezy/space-invaders.git

    cd space-invaders

    make run

## Usage

Run the binary to start the game:

    space-invaders

Use the `Tab` key to toggle the Menu and Help screen.

The `cpm` command runs a pre-bundled test ROM to verify the 8080 CPU emulator. That can be executed as follows:

    > space-invaders cpm

    MICROCOSM ASSOCIATES 8080/8085 CPU DIAGNOSTIC

    VERSION 1.0  (C) 1980

    CPU IS OPERATIONAL

## Development

You need Go and the dependencies that [Ebiten engine](https://ebitengine.org/en/documents/install.html) has.

Run `make` for various commands to run.
