Space Captain
Space Captain is a neon arcade space shooter in active development.
Play Story chapters as Captain Grant, take on classic arcade runs, or explore a persistent solo Deep Space galaxy with four regions, caverns, ship customization, races and an Ancient Gate quest.
Private co-op preview: 2–4 pilots can share a Blue, Frozen, Ember or Violet patrol world with live combat and text chat. Each player brings the Deep Space level, equipped hull and purchased combat tuning saved in their own browser. Co-op patrols do not yet include the solo galaxy quests or earn XP and credits.
To host co-op without an account: download the Windows local-host ZIP below, extract it, and run host-local.ps1 in PowerShell on a PC with Node.js and an internet connection. The launcher prints a temporary https:// address. Paste that address into the game’s Private Co-op menu, choose a sector, and select Host new world. Share Copy invite with up to three friends. Keep the host window open while playing; the temporary address changes each time you restart it.
Desktop controls: mouse aim; W thrust; S brake; left-click fire or F auto-fire; X missile. The game is free to play in your browser.

Install instructions
Play Space Captain directly in this browser; players do not need a download.
Only the person hosting a private co-op world needs the optional Windows host ZIP. Extract it, install Node.js if your PC does not already have it, then open PowerShell in the extracted folder and run ./host-local.ps1. The first run installs the small room-service dependencies. Keep that window open and paste its temporary https:// address into the in-game Private Co-op menu. The address changes each time hosting restarts.
