Gameplay

Starfighter Arena is a multiplayer only game. You can start a new game and initiate a new netplay session by pressing enter and copying the netplay URL, then sharing it with other players. You can connect to someone else's game by having them share their netplay URL with you and you can visit that URL to join their game.

After connecting to a multiplayer session, you can enter the security code of a ship you've previously created with the Starfighter Ship Creator, or choose one of the preset ships at the bottom of the screen. Use the up/down/left/right controls to move the selected letter and press button 1 to choose the letter. You can press button 2 to move back a letter if you've made a mistake. After you've typed in a valid code for your ship you will be able to continue to the game.

In the arena, your ship will be in the center of the screen. You can press the up button to move forward, and the left or right buttons to rotate the ship. Pressing and holding button 1 will fire the weapons of your ship.

Your ship has a limited amount of energy, shown in the bar on the bottom of the screen. When this bar reaches 0, your ship will be destroyed. Energy is constantly replenished by your ship reactors, but moving and firing weapons will deplete your energy. Your energy will also be depleted if your shields are hit by an enemies weapons.
