How to Play Like a Pro

Aliens keep coming. Your blaster keeps firing. In Alien Buster, smart upgrades and calm aim turn chaos into victory. What you do in the game Alien Buster is a wave survival shooter where you defend Earth from alien invaders. You: Shoot aliens with energy blasts, Survive wave after wave, Upgrade your gear to stay strong as enemies get tougher. Core loop: A wave begins. You blast incoming aliens while avoiding damage. You collect or earn upgrades. You choose improvements for your weapon/gear. You face stronger waves and repeat. Real player moment: early waves feel easy… then a tougher alien appears and you realize your upgrades matter a lot. Controls Desktop Usually WASD/arrow keys to move. Mouse to aim + click to shoot (or auto-fire in some versions). Mobile Not recommended unless the game supports on-screen controls. How you win / how progress works You win by surviving longer and clearing more waves. Progress is your run: better upgrades = deeper waves. Some games track score by enemies defeated and time survived. Upgrades (how to pick smarter) You won’t win by picking upgrades randomly. Choose based on what you’re struggling with: If waves take too long: increase damage or fire rate. If you get hit a lot: improve survival (speed/defense). If crowds overwhelm you: choose upgrades that help with groups. Tips to play better (12 specific tips) Don’t stand still. Small movement helps avoid being surrounded. Shoot the closest threat first. Near aliens end runs faster than far aliens. Use a simple movement pattern (small circles or side-to-side) to stay safe. Upgrade what’s failing you. Damage if you can’t clear waves; survival if you keep getting hit. Save open space. Don’t back yourself into a corner. When a new alien type appears, watch it for one second before you chase it. Clear a path, then collect upgrades. Don’t run into a crowd for a drop. If waves feel too crowded, focus on thinning one side instead of shooting everywhere. Avoid tunnel vision. Glance at the edges—aliens often sneak in from sides. After an upgrade choice, adjust your play. Faster fire? Stand your ground more. More speed? Kite enemies wider. If you keep losing late, your upgrades are too split. Focus on 1–2 strengths, not everything. Coach voice: Move, aim, upgrade with purpose. Tiny human tip: If you keep getting overwhelmed, you’re probably fighting in the middle. Try circling the outside so enemies chase in a line. Levels / modes / progression Progression is wave-based: More enemies, Tougher foes, More pressure to upgrade efficiently. Common problems & quick fixes Lag in big waves: close other tabs and refresh. Controls not working: click inside the game frame to focus. No sound: check volume (sound can warn of danger). Fullscreen stutters: windowed mode can run smoother. Mobile controls tough: use desktop for better aim. Parent note (2–3 lines) This is cartoon sci-fi blasting (no gore). It supports focus and decision making through upgrades. Suggest short sessions (10–15 minutes) and breaks.
