The user wants a playable Space Invaders game on a canvas, all in a single HTML file. The requirements are: 1. Player cannon that moves and shoots 2. Descending grid of aliens that advance and fire back 3. Destructible bunkers 4. Score and lives 5. Procedural graphics only (no external assets) 6. Single file: index.html with inline CSS and JS I need to create a complete Space Invaders clone using HTML5 Canvas API. Since no external assets are allowed, I'll draw everything procedurally using canvas drawing methods. Key components: - Canvas setup with proper sizing - Game state management (menu, playing, game over) - Player ship (triangle/rectangle shape) - Alien grid (rows of different colored aliens) - Bullets (player and alien) - Bunkers (destructible barriers made of small destructible blocks) - Collision detection - Score and lives display - Input handling (keyboard) Visual style: - Classic Space Invaders aesthetic - Pixelated/procedural graphics drawn with fillRect, arcs, etc. - Retro color scheme (green, red, purple, yellow) Implementation plan: 1. HTML structure with canvas and UI overlay for score/lives 2. CSS for styling and layout 3. JavaScript game engine: - Game loop with requestAnimationFrame - Entity classes: Player, Alien, Bullet, Bunker, Particle - Collision detection (AABB for most, pixel-perfect for bunkers if needed but AABB is fine) - Alien movement pattern (side to side, descend when hitting edges) - Alien firing logic (random chance) - Bunker destruction (grid of small destructible blocks) - Particle effects for explosions - Game over and restart logic Let me write the complete game:

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.
