About This Game

Stellar Bastion is a space station defense game where you command the last outpost in a hostile sector. Your station sits at the center of the action while waves of meteors, pirate scouts, and armored frigates close in from every direction. You aim and fire the main gun directly while an automated turret handles the closest threats on its own.

Between waves, spend credits on upgrades across four categories: Weapons, Defense, Systems, and Research. Boost your fire rate, extend your range, add shield generators, unlock homing missiles, or research explosive rounds. The upgrade tree is deep enough to support dozens of waves with meaningful progression — every run plays differently depending on your upgrade path.

How to Play

  1. Move the mouse or touch to aim your main gun
  2. Click or hold to fire at incoming threats
  3. The auto-turret fires at the closest enemy within range automatically
  4. Destroy enemies to earn credits shown as gold drops
  5. Click credit drops to collect them, or upgrade Salvage Drones for auto-collection
  6. Spend credits in the upgrade panel at the bottom of the screen
  7. Press E to activate EMP Burst (requires Research upgrade)

Tips & Strategy

Upgrade Gun Range early — more range means more time to destroy incoming threats
Balance offense and defense. Shields buy time to earn more credits
Pirate Frigates park at the edge of your range and shoot — prioritize them with your main gun
Explosive Rounds are powerful against clusters and large waves
Don't ignore the auto-turret upgrades — it handles what you can't aim at
