StarBlast.io

StarBlast.io is a multiplayer arcade shooter set in space, made by Neuronality. You fly your own ship, mine asteroids for gems, fight other players and spend what you collect on upgrades and new ships. Teamwork matters in many modes, so working with other pilots is often the key to winning.

Learning the Basics in Training

There is a tutorial level that teaches everything you need: flying, fighting, mining rocks and upgrading your ship. Finishing it first makes your first online matches much easier.

Gems Power Everything

Gems are the main currency in StarBlast.io. You get them by shooting asteroids until they break and by destroying enemy ships. Spend them on ship upgrades, or convert them into credits at your team's base to buy extra weapons and new ships. Pick rocks that fit your ship's size and power so you are not wasting time on targets that take forever to break.

Four Ways to Play

The game has four modes: team mode, survival mode, invasion and pro deathmatch. Team mode is the friendliest for newcomers, because you have a crew backing you up. In team mode you join one of three factions: the Federation, the Sovereign Trappist Colonies or the Orion Arm Guild.

Building a Stronger Ship

Mine in quieter areas early on to build up gems without much risk. Upgrade before chasing fights with bigger ships. In team mode, stay close to teammates and return to base to turn gems into credits, since a better ship makes a huge difference in later fights.
