The user wants a Space Invaders game in a single HTML file. Let me plan this out: 1. Canvas-based game 2. Player cannon - moves left/right, shoots 3. Aliens - grid formation, move side to side and descend, fire back 4. Bunkers - destructible by player shots and alien shots 5. Score tracking 6. Lives system 7. Procedural graphics (no external assets) I'll create a complete game with: - Player ship at the bottom - Alien grid that moves and fires - Bullet system for both player and aliens - Destructible bunkers (4 typically) - Score display - Lives display - Game over / win states Let me write this in a single index.html file with inline CSS and JS.

MEASUREMENTS
Raw readings from the capture, not a verdict — the grade above is the only judgement. Percentages are how much of the screen changed; the measure under-reports sparse motion on a dark background.
