Machine Eater
About Machine Eater
Create blocks using the resources you collect, expand your ship, and strategically place structures with different features on the blocks you create before selecting your enemy on the radar. Use your strategy skills to eliminate the enemies you detect on the radar. The structures you collect from enemies will add depth to your strategy. No install and no sign-up — it runs the moment you hit play.
How to play
Machine Eater comes down to one thing: aim, fire and clear each wave of enemies while staying alive. Use WASD or the arrow keys for movement, and the mouse to aim. Mobile play swaps the keys out for touch buttons. Nothing is hidden behind a tutorial, so the fastest way to learn it is simply to play.

Tips & tricks
If you want to get good at this quickly, start here. Deal with the closest threat first and keep moving — standing still to line up a perfect shot is what usually gets you hit. Tap the movement keys in short bursts instead of holding them down; it gives you much finer control.
