Squadron 404

The shipyard is open. The fog is closing in. The coffee ran out.

Squadron 404 is a retro top-down space shooter where you spend half your time in the garage. Outside, you defend the mothership against wave after wave. Inside, you tinker with your fighter until it's completely broken OP. In the good way.

On board: an AI without a homeworld, a commander with a criminal record and an instructor hiding a secret in his desk drawer.

Waves until you drop

100 waves, bosses named like tracks off a metal album and enemies just begging to be turned into scrap. Dash, drift, patch the shield wall while the next wave is already rolling in. Go AFK here and you become the scrap.

Endless buildcrafting

20+ modules, from cute little drones to a deadly black hole, plus modifiers across multiple rarity tiers. Mount weapons left, center or right and watch your ship change. New ship designs aren't for sale. You earn them with your playstyle.

Grind that pays off

Levels, skills, prestige and crafting: fuse unused modules into upgrades. Stick with it and you ascend for more slots, more power and a hull with serious presence. Feeling lazy? Optimize your ship for idle mode and let it farm in the background. Active grind or chill min-maxing, your call.

Six zones, zero boredom

Stargate corridors, an asteroid belt full of shards, a labyrinth full of traps, a convoy through the fog, the boss arena and more. Every zone plays differently.

Co-op for up to 4 pilots

Invite your squad via Steam and the waves scale with you. Trade loot with real players on the marketplace. Will your buddy hand over their best module or that sweet drop? Friendship test included.
