## What is Space Defender?

Build your ship and survive the next wave of the enemy fleet. Space Defender: Galactic War brings arcade space combat into full 3D, with quick dodges, powerful weapons and bosses that change tactics mid-fight. Steer with one finger and see how far you can go.

YOUR SHIP, YOUR ARSENAL
Choose your main gun and wing weapons from 12 weapons. Combine lasers, missiles and cannons with an ion cannon, cryo lance or gravity well. Upgrade weapons to level 10 and preview their mounted models in the hangar before spending currency earned in play.

EVERY RUN BUILDS PROGRESS
Earn Scrap, return to the hangar and invest in permanent ship modules. Improve your hull, armor and firepower, then spend credits on upgrades during each run. Choose from 7 ships with different stat profiles and choose from 7 free color schemes for your ship and satellites.

SATELLITES THAT FIGHT WITH YOU
Build a support formation: Option mirrors your main weapon, Aegis intercepts incoming shots and Striker rams enemies. Pair satellite roles with matching weapons to activate extra effects.

A GALAXY FULL OF THREATS
Fight enemy formations, kamikazes, snipers, minelayers and elite opponents. Face bosses that switch to more aggressive phases as their health drops. Discover 5 sector themes filled with nebulae, planets and varied backdrops.

RETURN FOR NEW CHALLENGES
Take on 3 daily missions to earn Scrap and crystals. Pick up laser, spread shot, missile and rapid-fire power-ups. Compare your wave and experience scores on Game Center leaderboards.

Key features:
• 3D combat, lighting effects and layered explosions
• One-finger controls built for portrait play
• 12 weapons, 3 mounting slots and permanent hangar upgrades
• 7 ships and 7 free color schemes
• 3 satellite roles and weapon-link bonuses
• Enemy formations, elites and bosses with combat phases

Choose your loadout, launch and chase a new wave record.
