About Star Fighter

Star Fighter is a fast-paced space shooter (shmup) that drops you into an endless battle against waves of alien invaders. Weave your ship across the bottom of the screen, unleash a stream of laser fire, and destroy enemies before they slip past you. The longer you survive, the faster and thicker the waves become. How high can your score climb before you're overwhelmed?

How to Play

  1. 1Move your ship with ← → or the A and D keys (or the mouse).
  2. 2Hold Space or click to fire your lasers upward.
  3. 3Destroy each invader for 5 points.
  4. 4Don't let any enemy reach the bottom or crash into your ship.
  5. 5Press R or click to restart after a game over.

Tips & Tricks

  • Keep firing constantly — there's no ammo limit.
  • Prioritise enemies closest to the bottom of the screen.
  • Small, quick movements beat big sweeps for precise dodging.
