Space Raiders in Space

Space Raiders in Space is a wave-defense roguelike in which you command a crew through the Bugpocalypse. Give your crew five orders—Attack, Defend, Cower, Search and Build—as they loot weapons and supplies, construct defenses and fight bugs across the galaxy.

Command your crew

You can issue orders to individual raiders or to the group. Tell them when to search, what to build and how to fight; the orders are simple, but combining them creates more complex strategies. Your crew has weapons and enthusiasm, but limited intelligence, so their survival depends on how you direct them. You can pause combat at any time to assess the situation and issue orders.

Build your defenses

Your raiders scavenge materials from their surroundings and use them to construct fortifications. More than a dozen defensive structures support different building strategies and help keep the crew away from the bugs.

Fight across the galaxy

As you loot your way through the galaxy, you encounter locations with distinct tactical challenges. Use weapons, fortifications and orders to overcome them. Weapons include penetrating crossbows, slashing swords, armour-piercing snipers and crushing hammers, with multiple tiers and rarities for each category.

Comic-book encounters at the start of each location present tough decisions. Bugs can overwhelm your crew if they get too close, and raiders who are knocked down too often will not get back up.
