If you’re after a game to fill those moments of downtime between the AAA releases that you’ll no doubt be playing over the coming months, you really can’t go wrong with Assault Android Cactus. It may not have the prettiest visuals, even running at 4K, but it has a hell of a lot of charm and plays like an absolute dream. Plus, it only gets better if you get some friends around to join in the fun. Challenging, fast-paced and deeper than you’d expect, there’s a reason why Assault Android Cactus has such a strong following, and that’s because it’s a no-nonsense example of the wonders of unadulterated arcade gaming.

Assault Android Cactus kind of snuck up on me, and is easily one of my favorite shooters of the year. I’m really interested in seeing what developer Witch Beam comes up with next.

Assault Android Cactus is an energising shooter experience. Each level, character and enemy brings something fresh to the game, and the end result is chaotic, polished, packed with variety and effortlessly charming. I had a huge amount of fun just trying to top my own high scores and experimenting with the different protagonists, let alone making an impact on the global leaderboards, so it really does feel like there's something for everyone.

Fun twin-stick shooter with endearing characters. Grab a friend and unleash a fury of projectiles for the Genki Star!
