We have so much media about what life would be like in space and much of it involves space battles, like Space Defense Idle. When you've got advanced technology that functions in a vacuum, it's possible to automate all your systems to attack and defend as needed. You have gained command of an interstellar ship that travels through space and deals with any threats to life. There are other resilient and dangerous ships out there that can withstand all sorts of force. However, you are persistent and you will stay in the fight for as long as it takes to take down any enemy ship you encounter.

About Space Defense Idle

With enough effort, any activity or event can be turned into an idle one so that you don't need to constantly man the battle stations. This is one such game where the battle stations can be manned by you or left up to the systems and allies. Of course, things can go much faster if you put in the effort since you have the potential to deal the most damage. You just need to be consistent and put your resources towards weaponry and upgrades that will help you progress. This is a war of attrition and you need to keep pushing.

How to Play

Space Defense Idle is a 2D idle game about defending space from hostile ships using only the mouse. To interact with the upgrade UI, move the cursor over to the desired element and click the Left Mouse Button. You can attack the enemy ship by doing the same action. The goal is to destroy all of the enemy ships that appear in your sights. The enemy health bar will appear above it and slowly tick down over time. The battle is over once the enemy is defeated or you decide to stop the offensive.

The main game screen always has the enemy ship in view for you and your allies to attack. As attacks are made, you will generate resources that can be used to aid your assault. The upgrades on the left side affect how much damage you're able to do directly while the upgrades on the right affect how effective your allies are and how quickly they attack. The more damage you're able to do to the enemy ship, the more resources you'll generate over time. Once the enemy ship is destroyed, you may encounter another one soon enough. Save your Galactic Coins for the next battle.

Tips and Tricks

Since this is an idle game, you should set things up so that you can leave it to idle. The first thing you should do is strengthen your main attack a little so that you can quickly earn enough to start bringing allies into the battle. Once you have a decent amount of ally power, step away for a while so that you can return to reap the benefits of the attack.
