About This Game

Welcome to Space

Space Defender is a 2D arcade space shooter blending twin-stick action with RPG progression. Crafted by a solo French developer, this dynamic cosmic adventure is playable in English or French with full controller support.

Explore and Fight Freely

Journey through three unique galaxies, each with polished visuals and escalating challenges. Your ship evolves, but so do your foes! Take on missions at stations: wipe out enemy squadrons, defend outposts, or escort vulnerable ships.

Repel the Threat

Battle Drones wreaking havoc across sectors. Wield a diverse arsenal – laser cannons, guided missiles, automated turrets, and more – to prevail. Pilot with precision, as every equipped item affects visuals and gameplay.

Level Up Your Game

Earn credits from missions to upgrade your ship or purchase stronger models, like the Orion Cruiser or Vulture Frigate. Equip over 50 items (Cobra batteries, Hornet shields) and manage energy to optimize performance. Liberate each galaxy by aiding stations, building toward an epic final mission (coming soonβ„’).

Early Access: Join the Adventure

In Early Access, Space Defender offers many hours of gameplay but includes some bugs (UI, missions) and repetitive tasks we’re refining. New missions (massive battles, swarm) and a polished experience are planned for the full release. Commander, your feedback will shape this universe – jump in now!
