Blockader

Blockader is a bright top-down 2D shooting game. You fight with auto-firing weapons, and you also grow your loadout between fights like a roguelite. You start in a round arena. Enemy groups come in from all sides. The pressure never truly stops.

You cannot just wait. Move often, watch where danger is building, and use upgrades to strengthen your character.

Enter the Arena

At the start of a run, you are inside a ring-shaped combat space. Enemies slowly spread around you. The safe space shrinks as they close in.

Your guns shoot on their own. So you do not have to aim all the time. What matters is how you move, where you stand, and whether you stay alive.

Kill enemies to raise the wave meter. Once the meter fills, you pause for a moment and get upgrade cards. Then the next wave begins.

Blockader Controls

The controls are simple:

• WASD to move
• 1 to 4 to pick an upgrade card
• Space to reroll upgrade cards
• Tab to show or hide stats
• Esc to pause

Since firing is automatic, movement is the main skill. Give yourself room. When foes start to clump up, you need space to slip away.

Choose Your Upgrades

After each wave ends, you earn fresh enhancement cards. The card set changes each time, so two runs can feel different.

Before you choose, check what is happening right now. If your damage is low, an attack-focused card can clear waves sooner. If you are getting overwhelmed, a defense or survival card may help you last longer.

If none of the cards fit what you want, press Space to reroll. Keep rolling until you see something you can use.
