How to play Space Defender

Make Space Defender your next activity in the game library. Clear five enemy waves before losing three lives. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Begin with the solo mode shown on the page. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.

Defend your ship through five waves of enemies using the on-screen or keyboard controls.

Try a deliberate move

After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Refer to the controls when needed.

Your goal

Clear five enemy waves before losing three lives. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Take a moment to understand the current position.

Step by step

  1. Start and steer.
  2. Hold Fire.
  3. Avoid enemy projectiles.
  4. Clear the final tougher wave to win.

Controls

Pointer/arrow movement and held Fire. Start / pause and New round are available. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.

A useful example

Move sideways between incoming shots. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Notice the change in the playing area.

Watch out for this

Post-hit protection is temporary. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
