About Stellar Bastion

You defend a star-fortress landing deck against endless waves of alien bugs in Stellar Bastion. Hold the screen or mouse to walk while your rifle automatically shoots the closest target—you control positioning, not aim. Every thirteen seconds a fresh wave appears, and every fifth wave a Hive King arrives to boost the entire swarm's speed. Your goal is to survive as many waves as possible and bank your score before you fall.

Killed bugs drop limited-ammo weapons like machine guns, shotguns and rocket launchers, while your standard sidearm fires forever. Between waves you choose one of three random perk cards from a pool of twenty-two upgrades, and the action never pauses during selection. Stellar Bastion on Poki Games rewards quick decisions and constant movement as the pressure mounts wave after wave.
