Lazerbait is a free arcade strategy game set in virtual reality with one simple goal: capture all the planets to build more ships and destroy your enemies!
Developed by Taylor Stapleton · Published by Taylor Stapleton







You oversee a planetary system from above and use motion controllers to direct fleets between planets. The goal is to capture territory and eliminate rival forces.
Each planet you control produces ships over time, so expansion increases your fleet strength. You must choose where to attack and when to defend as up to seven AI opponents compete for planets.
Set options such as map size, game speed, ship limits, AI count, and difficulty. Randomly generated maps change between matches, while global leaderboards track ships destroyed and AI opponents defeated.
Players describe Lazerbait as an engaging, straightforward strategy game, with several enjoying how VR motion controls make directing fleets feel immediate and absorbing. Reviews also appreciate the replay value of changing planetary layouts and the challenge of working up through AI difficulties.
