Space invaders(Selfmade)

I have now completed Space Invaders. The game has met the requirements that has been set.

Creating this game wasn't as difficult as the previous one, this is because I only met one issue. The issue was that Alien 2 wouldn't explode and the missile would go straight through it. The thing that was causing this was the order the instructions went in. I had to move three things around. These were "Change instance into Object_Explosion", "Destroy the instance" and "If Alien1 is equal to 25".

An issue I am currently having is that the game crashes when space is pressed to quickly. I think this happens due to all the things happening at once such as: The explosion, the sound, the missiles, and the instance being destroyed. I will attempt to fix this but I cannot be sure.

The game looks bland at the moment, I will probably leave it as it is but there is a possibility that I may improve the look and design when everything else is finished and I have free time.


 
 
I am happy with how my game has turned out and how it functions. I have also created my own ship sprite. This is the first time I have created a sprite to run in a game and I am happy with the outcome. The first ship was bland and didn't look right with the game. I decided to create my own to show I have the ability to create my own sprites and characters.
Overall I am proud with my progress but I also aim to improve.

After a few days I realised I need a background to add atmosphere. I created a space background using this tutorial (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czhJfC1SuU0). This was a great tutorial and it helped me to create a realistic space image.
