Ready to pilot a starship and battle across the galaxy—right in your browser? StarshipFighter.com is a retro-inspired, modern-built space shooter that's free, no download required, and optimized for desktop and mobile. If you’re a fan of classic arcade games or just want a quick adrenaline boost between tasks, this is for you.

Starship Fighter is a browser-based space combat game developed with a cutting-edge stack: React 18, TypeScript, and P5.js. The game blends smooth animations, smart enemy AI, and crisp controls into a fast-paced arcade experience that runs beautifully on any modern device.

You get to pilot one of three distinct starships:

Standard Fighter – Balanced and equipped with a shield ability.

Heavy Gunship – High durability, dual turrets, and powerful blasts.

Scout Interceptor – Super fast with homing missiles and light armor.

Each ship offers a unique gameplay experience—whether you like tanking damage, zipping around enemies, or going for high-score runs.

🔥 Dynamic Combat: Fly through asteroid fields, grab power-ups, and face off against waves of enemies in an ever-escalating fight across multiple solar systems.

🏆 Global Leaderboard: Compete for glory with real-time score tracking using Firebase integration. It’s all about climbing to the top—are you fast enough?

📱 Mobile Ready: On the go? The game features intuitive touch controls, landscape lock, and full support for mobile browsers. No app store hassle.

🎵 Adaptive Audio: Music and sound effects change dynamically based on what’s happening in the game. It’s not just what you see—it’s what you feel.

🧠 Smart AI: Enemies evolve as you progress. Don’t expect mindless drones—these enemies can dodge, flank, and surprise you.

Starship Fighter isn’t just fun—it’s well engineered:

Runs at high frame rates with frame-rate independent physics

Responsive HUD with animated transitions

PWA support—install it like an app on your phone

Built-in security features, profanity filters, and score validation

Developed with accessibility in mind, including safe area insets for notched devices
