Rules & Scoring
Game Rules
- 1You start with 100 HP and face waves of red demons that chase you relentlessly
- 2Each wave spawns 3 + 2 per level demons scattered across the top portion of the arena
- 3Each demon has 30 HP and your bullets deal 15 damage per hit, so every demon takes exactly 2 shots to kill
- 4Demons deal 10 damage on contact and then teleport to a random position at the top of the arena
- 5Demon speed increases each level (base speed 1 + 0.3 per level), making them progressively harder to outrun
Scoring System
Each demon killed is worth 100 points. Your total score accumulates across all levels. Survive as many waves as possible to maximize your score. Higher levels spawn more demons that move faster, so later waves are worth more total points but are much harder to clear.
Tips & Strategies
Beginner
- Keep moving constantly - demons chase you at all times, so standing still guarantees taking damage
- Your gun auto-aims at the nearest demon, so just focus on dodging with WASD and pressing Space to fire
- Every demon takes exactly 2 shots to kill (15 damage x 2 = 30 HP), so fire twice at each target before it reaches you
- When a demon hits you, it teleports to the top of the arena - use this brief separation to reposition safely
Advanced
- Kite demons by running along the edge of the arena - they will cluster behind you in a line, making them easier to pick off one by one
- Demon speed is 1 + 0.3 per level, while you move at speed 4, so you always outrun them - use this advantage to control spacing
- Early levels (1-3) are the safest time to practice and build score, since waves are small (5-9 demons) and slow
- Fire as rapidly as possible when demons are far away - bullets travel at speed 8, giving you time for multiple shots before they close the gap
- Prioritize demons that are closest to you since your auto-aim targets them first anyway
Pro
- Master circle-strafing: run in a wide circle around the arena while continuously firing into the trailing pack of demons
- At Level 5+, there are 13+ demons with speed 2.5+ each, so you must keep maximum distance at all times and never stop moving
- Each wave spawns demons in the top 200 pixels of the arena, so start each wave positioned at the bottom for maximum reaction time
- Time your shots rhythmically to ensure 2-shot kills without wasting bullets - consistent fire rhythm clears waves faster than panicked spam

Frequently Asked Questions
Demon Arena is a top-down wave-based demon shooter where red demons chase you across an arena. Move with WASD or arrow keys and press Space to fire bullets that auto-aim at the nearest demon. Each demon has 30 HP and takes 2 shots (15 damage each) to destroy. Clear all demons in a wave to advance to the next level where more demons spawn and they move faster.

Yes, Demon Arena supports both WASD and arrow keys for movement in all four directions. Press Space to shoot.

Each level spawns a wave of demons equal to 3 + 2 times the current level number. So Level 1 has 5 demons, Level 2 has 7 demons, Level 3 has 9 demons, and so on.
