If you’re going for a high score in Space Invaders, it’s important to know which aliens are worth the most points, right? Well, here’s a handy way to keep those point values top of mind all the time.
While I usually think of grannies, lace doilies, and Lladro figurines when I think of cross-stitch art hanging on the wall, even I’d be proud to hang this Space Invaders cross-stitch on my wall. While it doesn’t show the entire playing field, it does give you the important legend listing the scores for all four invader types, but still shines no light on how much you can expect for shooting down their green spaceship.
You know, that spaceship makes me ponder something I never thought of before now: How the hell do invaders fit inside that thing? Maybe they’ve got some sort of shrinker ray? Or are they just really flexible? All I can think of now is is some sort of alien clown car routine now.
But I digress. The Space Invaders sampler measures about 7.8″ (h) x 6″ (w), and was handmade by Knitforvictory, and is available over on Etsy for $25 (USD).
