Galactic-Empire-Invaders is a Star Wars-themed Space Invaders parody game developed using Pygame. As a lone Jedi, players navigate an X-wing fighter to battle against the forces of the Empire, culminating in a showdown with the Death Star.

- Fire: Press the Space-bar to shoot at incoming enemies.
- Health: Players can sustain two hits before their score is affected (grace period).
- Enemy HP: Each enemy has a set health value, typically 5 HP.
