ABOUT BLOCKADER
Blockader is a 2D roguelite arena shooter where space rodents battle relentless enemy waves across a colorful lunar battlefield. Your character moves around a ring-shaped arena while automated weapons handle the shooting, keeping your attention on movement, survival, and building an effective setup. Defeating enough enemies fills the wave meter and leads to a choice of random upgrade cards before a more difficult wave begins. More than 100 cards across four rarities can add effects such as extra bullets, chain lightning, poison, dragon allies, and arrows. Six playable characters offer distinct playstyles, while Stars earned during runs support permanent progression through Gear upgrades and character Skill Trees. Eight danger tiers, ranged Snipers, an upgrade collection, and a wave leaderboard provide additional challenges and goals as you continue playing. Choose your rodent, shape a powerful build, and fight your way through the next lunar assault!

GAMEPLAY OVERVIEW
Survive Waves Around The Lunar Arena
Blockader places your character on a ring-shaped battlefield where enemy hordes approach from multiple directions. Weapons fire automatically, allowing you to concentrate on moving around the arena and staying alive as each encounter develops. Defeating enemies fills the wave meter, and completing it advances you toward another, more dangerous wave. Later encounters increase the pressure, with eight danger tiers and ranged Snipers adding further threats.
Shape Each Run With Random Upgrade Cards
Between waves, you can select one from several randomly offered upgrade cards to develop your current build. The game includes more than 100 cards divided across four rarities, with possible effects including extra bullets, chain lightning, poison, dragon allies, and arrows. Different combinations can transform your firepower as enemy waves become increasingly difficult. You can also reroll the available card offer when you want another set of upgrade choices.
Build Permanent Power Between Attempts
Stars collected during runs can be used for permanent Gear progression across Offense, Defense, and Utility. Each of the six playable characters also has a Skill Tree, providing another way to develop your capabilities between attempts. An upgrade collection tracks discovered cards and hidden mysteries, while the wave leaderboard gives you a place to compete for higher waves. Together, these progression systems provide lasting development alongside the temporary builds created during individual runs.
