Stellar Bastion

Stellar Bastion is an arcade shooting game about surviving endless bug attacks on a star-fortress flight deck. You play as the last gunner, while your rifle automatically targets the nearest bug and fires for you. That leaves movement as the main challenge: positioning decides whether you can keep space from the swarm. Waves become more demanding every 13 seconds, and each fifth wave brings a HIVE KING that makes the bugs move faster. Defeated enemies can drop temporary weapons, including machine guns, shotguns, and rocket launchers, while the MK-1 sidearm always remains available. Level-ups present three perk cards from a collection of 22 upgrades without stopping the action.

Hold the mouse or touch screen to walk toward your pointer while the gun fires automatically.

Use WASD or the arrow keys to move, and press 1 through 4 to change guns.

Press Shift for a combat roll, and use the on-screen pause, score banking, mission, and music controls.

The game pauses automatically when its browser tab is hidden.
