This is a simple Pygame-based alien shooter cat game that I made for Python/Pygame practice. It's based on the tutorial from the excellent Python Crash Course book.

To install Pygame, run:
$ python -m pip install --user pygame
If you need to specify Python3, then run:
$ python3 -m pip install --user pygame
If this command doesnβt work on macOS, try running the command again without the
--user
flag.
To run this game, navigate to the directory with the cat_save_us.py
file and run:
python3 cat_save_us.py
Use the left and right arrow keys to move the cat.
Press the spacebar to shoot bullets.
Press the left shift key to shoot a shockwave!
Type p
to pause the game (and c
to resume the game after pausing).
Type q
to quit out of the game.
