About In Space

You play an elite soldier dropped into a 2D top down view of deep space, holding futuristic weapons against waves of aliens that do not stop arriving. The loop is survival: last through what the swarm sends, spend what you earn, and go back out better armed than you were.

The threats change as you go, so the weapon that carried the first waves will not carry the later ones on its own. Upgrading is part of the plan rather than a reward at the end. It runs in landscape at 800 by 600, on a phone or a desktop.

How to play

  1. Move your soldier through open space and keep away from the swarm.
  2. Fire on the aliens as they close in.
  3. Spend what you earn on upgrades between fights.
  4. Stay alive as the enemy types change.

Controls

Tap or clickEverything. One input does the whole game.

Tips

  • Keep moving. Standing still in a top down shooter lets the swarm surround you from every side.
  • Put your first upgrades into the weapon you actually fire, not the one you might use later.
