How to play Space Command

Space Command is a free voice controlled game you can play online with no download. Your ship flies on the left in one of 4 lanes. Say UP or DOWN to switch lanes and dodge asteroids. Say FIRE to shoot a laser down your lane. Big rocks take 2 hits! Because you play with sound instead of buttons, Space Command is great for parties, kids and streamers, and every round takes only a minute or two.

Open Space Command and allow microphone access when your browser asks (the front camera is only used as a live background and is optional).

Controls

Make a sound (shout, hum, sing or clap) to trigger the main action.
Louder or longer sounds give a stronger action; silence lets go.
Use the sensitivity slider at the bottom if the game reacts too much or too little.

Tips

Play in a quiet room first, then raise the sensitivity for noisy places.
Short, sharp sounds give the most precise timing.
Grab power-ups such as shields and slow motion to survive the hard waves.

Tips and strategy

Stay near the centre in Space Command; it gives you the most room to dodge in either direction.
Aim at the nearest threat first in Space Command; letting one slip through costs more than a missed shot.
Play Space Command in a quiet room, then try it at a party — the louder the crowd, the funnier it gets.
Replay Space Command a few times: each run teaches you the patterns, and scores usually double after the first five games.

Device requirements and privacy

Space Command needs a microphone — the one built into your phone, laptop or headset is enough. Allow microphone access when asked; the sound is analysed live in your browser and never uploaded. It is free to play; free players may see a short ad between rounds (never during play), and Premium removes all ads.
