Invaders Revenge – an animated multitouch game
Invaders Revenge is the name of our Kivy version of Space Invaders©. The following screenshot shows you the game we are going to build in this chapter:
There are several markers in yellow and cyan color in the screenshot. They help identify the structure of our game; the game will consist of a Shooter (the player) which shoots (Shot) at a number of Invaders whose mission is to destroy the Shooter with their Missiles. The Invaders are organized in a Fleet (which moves horizontally) and sometimes an individual Invader can break out of the grid formation and fly around the screen before they go back to their corresponding Dock.
The cyan line across the screen indicates an internal division of the screen into the Enemy Area and the Shooter Area. This division is used to discriminate the actions that should occur according to touches that happen in different sections of the screen.
The skeleton of the game is presented in invasion.kv:
