The game features four game modes: a story, campaign, a challenging 50 layer mode, Infinity Drive, daily challenges, Daily Drive, and boss rush mode. The game can be played in single-player or in local cooperative play with up to four players. The player must fight through hordes of rogue robots to take back control of the Genki Star. The Player takes control of one of nine Androids, the first of which being Cactus, an Interplanetary Police Department (IPPD) junior constable, who crashes her ship into a space freighter 'Genki Star'. An enhanced version for the Switch was released in 2019 as Assault Android Cactus+.Īssault Android Cactus is a twin-stick shooter played primarily from a quarter-down perspective. The game was released for Microsoft Windows, OS X, and Linux in 2015, PlayStation 4 in 2016, Xbox One in 2017 and Nintendo Switch in 2019. For anyone that doesn’t have a problem with those things though, it really is a lot of fun.Assault Android Cactus is a twin-stick shooter developed and published by Witch Beam. Some people simply won’t want to play a game with an all-female roster, or a game that strays on the cute side a bit, and that’s perfectly alright. I think for the most part, there isn’t a lot that is wrong with Assault Android Cactus, there’s simply a lot you might not be interested in. The Daily Drive feature isn’t working yet, which is annoying but not the end of the world. Assault Android Cactus can get very hectic, very fast and if you’re not careful you’ll get lost in the maelstrom of bullets and bombs.Īside from a short campaign, there isn’t really much to complain about. When the level never ends, if you’re lucky you can end up with a ton of upgrades stacked up to last for quite a while, making you a seemingly unstoppable killing machine. It gets a little old when playing by yourself, but even with just one or two friends it can make for some pretty fun times. Daily Drive doesn’t seem to work currently, but Infinity Drive is basically a never-ending mode where you keep your battery charged for as long as possible. Once you’re done the campaign, you also have a couple other game modes to play: Infinity Drive and Daily Drive.
