Had a play through of the game, pretty fun for a small, monochromatic project. My favorite part of the graphics would have to be the exploding animation of the saucers. I also really like the music.
Saucers From Space is a 2D, city-building arcade game made in the style of early-mid 80's games on the monochrome monitor of the Apple II.
The object of the game is to build up a city and defend it from flying saucers. You start with 1 truck collecting resources, one house, and the AA gun that you control. The levels start easy and increase in difficulty as you go. In between levels is the purchasing phase. Here, you can use the resources you've collected (points, wood, and ore) to purchase more trucks, buildings, and even tanks for reinforcements. Sometimes other buildings are required before you can purchase a particular building. The more items you have at the end of the level, the more bonus points you will collect. Try to build up your city and get the high score!

The HTML5 port wasn't working, so I removed it and made a downloadable version available - July 3, 2020.
