Overview

About this game

PolyDestroyer is a wave-based top-down space shooter about smart picks and staying alive as the arena gets busier. After each wave you choose one of three random, tiered upgrades. These upgrades stack during the run and shape your build.

Between runs you spend coins on permanent upgrades that raise your baseline power and open new options. In combat, Turbo helps you reposition or escape danger, and Shield gives brief safety for clutch moments.

Runs are short and readable. The core decisions are which upgrade to take and when to use a Turbo/Shield.
