For Space Invaders, you would move the aliens down when they get to the edges of the screen. You could add 2 invisible sprites along the edges and use sprite collision to check when an alien gets to the edge, then reposition the aliens down and reverse the x direction. Or you could check the distance from the edge, whichever you prefer.
