Star Squadron
Defend your ship against waves of alien squadrons that march in formation and dive at you. Slide to dodge while your cannon fires on its own.
How to play
- Slide your ship left and right along the bottom. The cannon fires by itself, so all you need to do is aim.
- Aliens move across in formation and step lower each time they reach the edge. Shoot them before they reach you.
- Some aliens peel off and dive at your ship. They are worth triple points when you shoot them mid dive.
- Clear a wave to start the next, which is faster and has more rows. You have three lives.
Tips and strategy
- Shoot the lowest row first. It is the one that reaches your ship soonest.
- Keep moving. Alien bolts fall straight down, so a few pixels sideways is usually enough.
- Dive attacks are the best points on the board. Line up under a diver as it swings.
- After a hit you are protected for a moment. Use that time to get clear.
FAQ
- Is there a fire button?
- No. The ship fires automatically so you can focus on dodging, which also makes it easy on a phone.
- How do I lose?
- You lose when all three lives are gone, or if the formation marches down to your ship.
- How do waves change?
- Each wave adds a row up to four, and the aliens move, dive and fire faster.
