If you used a tutorial, what tutorial did you follow? (Please provide a link.)
https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/681130/Learn-JavaScript-Part-2-Space-Invaders

What did you learn?
That space invaders has nothing to do with people not following social distancing rules ;) Sorry, I couldn't resist. Seriously though, for the Space Invaders game in this collection I learned from the tutorial how to separate the game into different 'states', with each state being able to draw and update itself. With this design the main game loop is then just responsible for transitioning from one state to another, delegating user input to a state and running the drawing and update loops.

Really cool, I liked the look of it!! I like that you can accidentally attack your own shields and I love how you show its health percentage.  Amazing job!!

Space Invaders is one of the games in this collection of classic arcade game remakes I made to help improve my game development skills. 

Besides the tutorial, I used the following assets for Space Invaders:

Music:                      Race to Mars by DOS88
Sound Effects:    The Essential Retro Video Game Sound Effects Collection by Juhani Junkala

Good luck to everyone with your games! I look forward to seeing your work.
