Space Battle Zero is a strategy combat game that pits two orbiting battleships against one another in a beautiful barrage ballet. With limited energy at your disposal - and limited windows to strike your opponent - you must carefully balance your spacecraft's offensive and defensive capabilities. Will you sacrifice your shields for an all-out assault, or will you have to divert energy from your super weapon at the last second to fend off an attack? Maybe you can even trade your orbital high ground for faster energy gains? Choose carefully, but beware. Even the best laid plans can blow up in your face like a missile out of the black!
.
If you've ever played FTL, you already know the basics:
This is your energy. You start with 3 points, and earn 2 more for every orbit you survive.
.
Click on a system (like laser) to assign an energy point to it. It will take a few seconds to power up.
*You can also click on already-assigned points to remove and redistribute them.*
Assign another point to speed up charging time.
*Adding more energy doesn't always speed up charging. Adding a third point to laser, for example, will make it more powerful instead of faster to charge.*
A system is ready to fire when A) it's fully charged, and B) the enemy is within range. A + B = C, as in Click that fire button!
*Some systems, like shields and sensors, engage automatically.*
Bam, you've just fired your first laser! Keep it up and space will be littered with the shattered hulls of your enemies in no time.
