Space Invaders (Under Construction)
---

This is a test of [PC8080](/modules/pc8080/), a new 8080-based machine emulator recently added to the
PCjs Project.  It's a work-in-progress, so there's not much to look at yet.  And the goal is not to build
yet-another Space Invaders/Arcade Machine emulator -- that's been done many times over -- but to start with
a well-understood 8080-based machine architecture that doesn't need a lot of peripherals, and use it as an
early test case for another classic CPU that we can add to the PCjs toolbox.
