Old is gold. Let's get inspired by the classic games from the 80's and add our own graphics and game features. Dive into the interstellar void and utilize three different weapon types to obliterate swarms of diverse space bugs, some larger and more challenging than others.

Course Overview

This course begins with a game inspired by the iconic Space Invaders arcade. Throughout this journey, you will experiment with exciting additions such as boss battles, super weapons, and a variety of enemy types.

Learning Outcomes

Object-Oriented Programming with JavaScript

Explore object-oriented programming with JavaScript and implement fundamental 2D game development techniques. Learn about the object pool design pattern, sprite animation, timing methods, and staggering techniques using timestamps.

Bonus Material

Take advantage of all bonus materials available. As a student, you'll receive a premium pack of 2D game art with a sci-fi space theme. You'll also have access to download source code from various project stages as new features are added.

Enemy Types and Features

You'll implement multiple enemy types, each offering unique challenges:

Beetlemorph - A basic enemy, defeated with a single hit.
Rhinomorph - An armored enemy that requires multiple hits and has various damage states.
Mantismorph - A large boss-sized enemy with a growing pool of lives.
Eaglemorph - Sacrifices a body segment when hit, which it uses as an attack.
Squidmorph - A mysterious alien bug; use your knowledge to design and implement your own unique enemy type.

About the Author: Udemy

Udemy is the largest open marketplace for online courses on the internet. Founded in 2010 by Eren Bali, Oktay Caglar, and Gagan Biyani and headquartered in San Francisco, the company went public on the Nasdaq in 2021 under the ticker UDMY. The platform hosts well over two hundred thousand courses across software development, IT and cloud, data science, design, business, marketing, and creative skills, taught by tens of thousands of independent instructors. Roughly seventy million learners use it worldwide, and the corporate arm — Udemy Business — supplies a curated subset of that catalog to enterprise customers.

Because Udemy is a marketplace rather than a single editorial publisher, the catalog is uneven by design. The strongest material lives in the long-form, project-based courses authored by working engineers — full-stack JavaScript, React, Node.js, Python data science, AWS, Docker and Kubernetes, mobile development with Flutter and React Native, and cloud certification preparation. The CourseFlix listing under this source is the slice of that catalog that has been mirrored here for offline-friendly viewing, organized by topic and updated as new releases land. Pricing on Udemy itself swings dramatically with the site's near-permanent sales, which is why the platform is best treated as a deep reference catalog: pick instructors with strong reviews and a track record of updating their material rather than buying on the headline price alone.
