# 👽 Alien Invasion

Alien invasion is a clone of popular arcade game with same name.

I created this game by following the "Python Crash Course" book. The reason was to improve my python skills.

## 🚀 Introduction

> In Alien Invasion, the player controls a ship that appears at

the bottom center of the screen. The player can move the ship

right and left using the arrow keys and shoot bullets using the

spacebar. When the game begins, a fleet of aliens fills the sky

and moves across and down the screen. The player shoots and

destroys the aliens. If the player shoots all the aliens, a new fleet

appears that moves faster than the previous fleet. If any alien hits

the player’s ship or reaches the bottom of the screen, the player

loses a ship. If the player loses three ships, the game ends.

## 🔧 Requirements
