About Space Tower Defense
Tower defense with a science fiction coat of paint. The base has to survive a run of waves, and the only real lever you have is placement: a tower in the right spot works for the whole wave, a tower in the wrong one works for a second.
Upgrades let a position that is holding become a position that is winning, so spending is a choice between more towers and better ones. Lose the base and the run starts over. It plays at 800 by 600 on a phone or a desktop.
How to play
- Look at the route the enemies take across the map.
- Place your towers along it before the wave starts.
- Upgrade the towers that are doing the most work.
- Hold the base through as many waves as you can.

Tips
- Cover the bends in the route first. An enemy spends longest there and takes the most fire for it.
- Bank a little between waves. A rushed tower in a bad spot is worse than an empty one.
