The invader wins by crossing the baseline. This fitness function lets me use evolution against the invaders by letting the dumbest ones approach the baseline before killing them, making future waves easier than if I killed the easiest invaders first.
Perhaps the fitness score could include the number of projectiles that passed nearby without impacting, as a measure of difficulty to hit.

Both are true, but covering distance is a better fitness function because it is continuous and crossing the baseline is discrete (and not just discrete -- binary). Your strategy can make the difficulty rise more slowly than otherwise, but it can't make the difficulty plateau or drop.
