How to play Star Fighters
Dogfight through the asteroids — most kills when time runs out (or hit the kill cap) wins.
Weaving between tumbling asteroids while lining up a moving target keeps the fight from ever feeling like a straight-on shootout.
- W or Up Arrow to thrust
- A/D to turn
- Click to fire your laser
- Right-click or E to fire a missile
- Hold Shift to boost
💡 Lead your shots — lasers and missiles take time to travel to a moving target.
💡 Fire missiles at longer range where their tracking time works in your favor, and save lasers for close-in finishing shots.
