I also did a simplification to this nice game: I change the invader.pd to

Thanks for this simplification! I didn't realise that it could be done using external txt files, it certainly makes it a lot easier to look at and adjust.
This "double [gemhead] trick" is not that widely know anyways, but it makes rendering many copies of the same Geo so much easier!
I'm struggling to find a way to make the enemytest patch send the command to explode without making all of the other enemies explode too, but like I say it's my first time using pd but I'm sure I will figure it out with experimentation, just like I did the rest of it really!
Maybe you can give enemytest/invader an inlet for exploding.
