Fight alien ships, gain points, use points to upgrade your ship, and then use the upgraded ship to defeat the main boss. 

 What, you want to know more than that?

Ether War is basically as I described it.  You fly a small ship in space around a space station that you must defend.  Your enemy is two different parts;  a giant red orb surrounded by other orange orbs, that shoot, spews out alien ships that you then shoot down. 

Once you shoot them down, an energy upgrade point floats towards you.  Collect enough of these and you can purchase upgrades for your ship in the pause screen.  Several different options exist but be sure to be somewhat balance because the enemy can upgrade ship types as well. 

Finally once you are fast enough, powerful enough and well protected you can take on the main boss.  The goal is to stop the red orb from spewing out ships, but in order to do so you must destroy the orange orbs that protect it. 

This can take a while as there are several of them flying in different patterns while also being surrounded by enemy ships.  Once past the orange orbs the red orb will take damage and its not long before it falls from your blasts.   This game is well made both in the artwork and gameplay division and keeps me coming back once a week.
