Enemies come at you in very rapid waves, and you won’t even have to clear the area to get more on the scene. There’s a heavy helping of bullet hell going on here, with loads of enemies on the screen at once. Make no mistake about it: Assault Android Cactus+ is tough. While the gameplay is basic, being successful involves a steady hand, great resolve and a ton of swears.
Several other androids are unlocked throughout the game, offering different styles of combat and their own unique weapons. The stronger weapon must be used sparingly to avoid overheating, and comes in particularly useful when battling boss enemies, which make their appearance at the end of each of the game’s groups of stages. Cactus has one main weapon which can be fired continuously, and hitting ZL allows her to switch to a secondary, considerably more powerful flamethrower. It has you playing as Junior Constable Cactus, who responds to a distress call and finds herself faced with an onslaught of enemies of different shapes, sizes and characteristics, which must be gunned down to secure Cactus’s safety.Įnemies will quickly swarm around you, forcing you to fire on a constant swivel.Īt its most basic, this is a twin-stick shooter where you have to strafe, duck and dive your way around enemy fire while eliminating everything in sight in order to complete each stage. Assault Android Cactus+ first saw a release on the Switch eShop in March 2019, but recently got the physical treatment from Super Rare Games.
There are a lot of space and robot/android shooters out on the Switch, with three years having passed since the console’s launch.Īs a result, games have to be pretty special to stand out amongst the saturated market.
