Spaceship Shooters
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
You are on the mission, summoning the orbital strike on the target… Just a few seconds a there is a big explosion! But what about the guy who sends the requested payload? Now you get a chance to figure it out yourself. Get a request, prepare the corresponding payload, aim and send it down!
Spaceship Shooters is heavily inspired by the Arrowhead Game Studios’ amazing games Helldivers and Helldivers 2, but gives you the chance to look at it from a different perspective.
Controls
- Q/E - rotate (orbit) camera
- 1/2/3 - prepare the payload
- LMB - hold to aim down, release to shoot prepared payload, or simply click to send it with no regards to precision
- RMB - cancel aim and shooting when aiming down, or cancel payload when not
- Escape - pause / menu
