A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

Space Breakers is a roguelite about defending a core with balls you fling.

Grab a ball, pull back, let go. It bounces around the arena, through the enemies marching on your core. Recruit more balls, give each one a class and items, and build a squad that breaks the waves on its own.

  • Five acts, five bosses, each with three phases
  • 10 classes and 10 gods: Striker, Mage, Jester, Summoner, Alchemist... stack up to three classes on one ball
  • A path map each act: fights, elites, shops, rests, and "?" events with deals that cost you something
  • Altar pacts: big powers with a price
  • A skill web that grows between runs with the cores you earn
  • Ascension: 10 challenge levels once you've won

Controls: mouse to grab and throw · Q / E / F abilities · TAB to manage your balls · Esc to pause
