🎮 Play Vastar Set 1 Online (Arcade)

Pilot a versatile fighting robot in Vastar, a horizontally scrolling arcade shoot ’em up released in 1983. Historically notable as the final game developed by Orca (and published under the alias Sesame Japan Corporation), this classic tasks you with defending the planet against an invading galactic empire across intense ground and air combat stages.

How to Play

As an arcade title, you will need to map standard coin-op controls in your browser. Press Shift (or 5) to insert a coin and Enter (or 1) to start. Use the Arrow keys to maneuver your robot across the screen, and use Z, X, and C for your action buttons to fire weapons and activate your shield.

Tips

• Your robot is equipped with a shield—use it strategically to block dense waves of enemy fire when dodging isn’t enough.
• Pay attention to the warp mechanics to reposition yourself or skip past overwhelming sections of the battlefield.
