Space Squadron: Earth Defense

Fly a starfighter through a nebula-lit warzone and take on enemy squadrons and capital ships in full 3D. Every wave hits harder. Every 5 waves a Dreadnought warps in, and every 10 waves the colossal Titan arrives. FOUR FIGHTERS - Falcata: twin-engine, twin-tail all-rounder - Lance: slim delta-wing interceptor, the fastest ship in the hangar - Bulwark: twin-boom heavy fighter with four nose cannons and a deep missile rack - Kestrel: gull-wing dogfighter with a razor-sharp turn and a strong ion cannon Each ship comes in three paint schemes. BUILD YOUR LOADOUT Earn credits in battle and spend them on gear. - Primary: Pulse Laser, Rapid Laser, Scatter Cannon, Railgun - Missiles: Homing, Swarm (4 at once), Heavy Torpedo - Two skill slots: Quick Turn (instant 180° flip), Shockwave, Aegis Shield, Hunter Drones, Flares, Overdrive - Hardpoints on the wings, spine and belly: cannons, rocket pods, an auto turret, armor, a shield amplifier and more. Everything you bolt on shows up on your ship. CAPITAL SHIP BOSS FIGHTS Pick off the turrets one by one, destroy the shield generators, then hit the core. When the Titan's superlaser starts charging, get out of the line of fire. Watch for the fighters launching from its hangars. TIGHT, READABLE CONTROLS - Left stick to steer; buttons on the right for guns, missiles, boost and skills - Cockpit HUD with lock-on, missile warning, radar and speed gauge - Clear hit markers, plus smoke and fire as ships take damage - Your hull repairs 30% after every wave, so good runs can go long - Invert pitch and toggle sound effects, music and hit sounds A SKY WORTH FLYING IN Earth and the starfield are built from NASA imagery, with a nebula rendered in Blender and a derelict station adrift among the wreckage. HDR lighting and bloom make every laser and explosion glow.
