Let the turrets fire; decide what to fit
The creator describes aiming, firing and loot collection as automatic. Your decisions concern equipment and upgrades. Start by reading the available mount and stat descriptions, then choose what weakness you want the next change to address; tapping every shot is not the stated combat loop.
Treat a larger hull as a new ship
The shipyard commissions Corvette, Destroyer and Carrier hulls rather than simply enlarging the starting frigate. Compare their mounts and room slots before moving on. This guide does not prescribe an untested purchase sequence or assume how equipment transfers between hulls.
Consider where a weapon can reach
Each mount has a firing arc, according to the creator. Read that arc beside the weapon choice when planning a fit. Different enemy encounters and capital-ship turrets are described deeper in the sectors; their exact counters and unlock conditions were not playtested here.
Check which edition you are opening
The creator distinguishes a browser edition described as having no ads from phone editions with optional rewarded ads. The main link here opens the itch.io project. Read the current edition’s controls and privacy choices before starting; Joywisp did not open its player, store or rewards.
