Read before your next round of Space Defender
Start Space Defender by looking at the playing area and its controls. Clear five enemy waves before losing three lives. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Begin with the solo mode shown on the page. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
Defend your ship through five waves of enemies using the on-screen or keyboard controls.
A focus for your next round
Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Refer to the controls when needed.
The challenge in front of you
Clear five enemy waves before losing three lives. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.
Making your moves
- Start and steer.
- Hold Fire.
- Avoid enemy projectiles.
- Clear the final tougher wave to win.
How to use the controls
Pointer/arrow movement and held Fire. Start / pause and New round are available. Use the control method described here for this activity. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.
Try this example
Move sideways between incoming shots. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Choose a deliberate next step.
Avoid this misunderstanding
Post-hit protection is temporary. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
