Strike Star

Strike Star is a top-down neon arcade space shooter of massive fleet battles. Fly anything from nimble fighters to lumbering battleships while you seize the map and then smash the enemy’s Strike Star before they destroy yours.

Command the fleet. Fly every ship. Destroy their Strike Star.

At a glance

  • 2 game modes - all-out fleet war in Conquest, or fast-paced 6 v 6 Core Run
  • 4 ship classes - Fighter, Bomber, Destroyer and Battleship, each with its own weapons and role
  • Your fleet, your call - command your wingmen or leave the AI to fight beside you
  • 3 difficulty levels - and on Hard, the enemy fields experimental ship variants
  • 43 achievements and 4 experimental ship variations to unlock!

Conquest Mode

Battle the enemy fleet for control of 5 capture points, earning credits that build your fleet. Dominate the map, build up your forces and destroy the enemy Strike Star to end the fight once and for all.

  • Fight - Earn credits from kills and captured points, then spend them to change your ship. Fighter, Bomber, Destroyer or Battleship - the choice is yours as long as you have the credits!
  • Build - Manage your team's fleet production, or leave it on auto and focus on the action.
  • Destroy - Laser pulses, missiles, torpedoes and ship-disabling Ion weapons are all at your disposal. Shrug off fire with the fighter's Hyper Shield, or knock out a whole swarm with the battleship's Ion Wave.

Core Run

Swap galactic conquest for a fast-paced 6 v 6 team game. Grab the core and shoot it into your opponents' Strike Star - first to three wins!

  • Combat Sports - Control the pitch with lasers and missiles!
  • Teamwork - Pass the core, call for it when you're open and give your team orders on the fly. Work together to win.

Retro arcade style

Glowing vector ships, neon explosions - Strike Star wears its arcade heart on its sleeve.

Controls

Best played with a controller. PlayStation and Xbox-style pads are supported, with on-screen prompts that match your pad. Full keyboard controls are also available, and every action can be rebound.
