Play Space Raider Online

Space Raider is one of those arcade games that grabs you by the collar and doesn’t let go. You’re piloting a little ship through waves of enemy fighters, dodging asteroids, and trying not to crash into space debris—all while blasting everything in sight. The controls are simple (just move and shoot), but the chaos ramps up fast.

What I love is how it nails that retro arcade feel—the pixel explosions, the chunky sound effects, the way your ship barely fits between two incoming meteors. It’s the kind of game where you’ll lean into the screen without realizing it, especially when you’re one hit away from losing your last life. If you’ve ever wasted quarters on old-school shooters, this one’s right up your alley.

Just don’t blame me when you start seeing enemy patterns in your sleep.
