Nebula Raid

Nebula Raid is an original vertical-scrolling shoot-'em-up that runs in your browser. Your fighter fires automatically, so you can focus on weaving through enemy bullets. Collect power-ups to upgrade your guns, keep a smart bomb ready for tight spots and take on big bosses at the end of each wave. Four difficulty levels, from Easy to Extreme, make it friendly for newcomers and tough for veterans.

How to play Nebula Raid

1. Pick a difficulty on the title screen and press Enter or click to start.
2. Move with the mouse, WASD or the arrow keys. Your ship fires automatically.
3. Dodge enemy bullets. Your ship has 5 hit points.
4. Collect power-ups dropped by enemies to upgrade your weapon and restore health.
5. Press Space, X or right-click to drop a bomb that clears the screen when you are in trouble.
6. Defeat the boss to move on, and beat your best score.

Tips and strategy

• Small, steady movements are safer than big swerves when the screen fills with bullets.
• Upgraded weapons make bosses much shorter, so grab every power-up early in a run.
• Use a bomb before you take a hit, not after. Easy gives you 4 bombs, Extreme only 1.
• On Easy your hitbox is smaller and enemies shoot slower, which makes it a good place to learn boss patterns.
