Galaxy Invaders

This is a simple game that is sort of a Space Invaders / Galaga clone but the enemies can be scripted using Lua. I made this just to test my knowledge of the Lua programming language and if I can integrate it into a C program (like a simple game). There are 15 waves and a final boss fight along with a bunch of randomly generated waves after that (though a lot of those are pretty much downright unfair to play, be warned). Source code available at here under the MIT license.

If for whatever reason you wish to mod the game, be warned that I did not include proper error checking / handling and a lot of stuff is just hacked together and perhaps not particularly well designed.

Game powered by Lua
