Star Guard
Your ship fires on its own — you just dodge the bullets and take down wave after wave.
About the game
Star Guard is a fast vertical space shooter. Your ship fires automatically, so the game is all about positioning and dodging — easy to play with one hand. Enemies come in waves with denser formations and more bullets as you go.
How to play
- Your ship fires automatically — focus on moving.
- Purple fighters go down in one hit (+15); orange heavies take three (+50).
- Getting hit costs a heart and gives brief invincibility. Lose all hearts and it’s over.
- Grab P for 10 seconds of triple shot, and + to restore a heart.
Controls
Desktop: arrow keys or WASD. Mobile: hold and drag (the ship sits above your finger).
Tips for a high score
- Enemy bullets aim at where you are now — small sideways moves dodge them best.
- Take out heavies in front of you first; a collision costs a lot.
- Stay near the center during triple shot to cover more of the screen.
