Tips and tricks
- Prioritise the threat that will hurt you soonest, not the one that is closest or biggest. Fast enemies before slow ones, shooters before melee.
- Aim first, then shoot. Spraying costs time or ammo and rarely helps; a single well-placed shot almost always beats three rushed ones.
- Keep your cursor or crosshair roughly where enemies appear, not on the spot where the last one died.
- Sound tells you where an enemy is before you can see it. Headphones help more than you would expect.
- Because this is a Action game, keep moving.
- Because this is a Shooting game, aim before you fire, and fire in short bursts.
Who will enjoy it
We would recommend Spacecraft Fighter to players who like precision, quick targeting and progressively tougher waves. Expect levels of a few minutes each, with longer runs in survival modes. The learning curve is approachable at first, with a steep climb in the later waves. The controls are tap and drag based, which makes it comfortable on touch screens as well as with a mouse.
