as indie developers we weren't expecting to see our game shipped out in a box, but here we are!
We've teamed up with IndieBox to bring Assault Android Cactus to meat space in March as a limited run physical Collectors Edition box, complete with printed colour manual, soundtrack on an actual CD, the game on USB as well as Steam Code for the Soundtrack Edition and exclusive physical collectables.
IndieBox is a subscription service that sends out boxed copies of high quality indie games each month but you can sign up for just the one month if you'd like. Check out their site to see some of the games they've covered in the past and the sort of things they include in the box, but if you're after ours, make sure you get in before the 18th of March!
When you're running on battery, make every second count!
Assault Android Cactus is an arcade style twin stick shooter set in a vivid sci fi universe. Junior Constable Cactus is outside her pay grade when she responds to a distress call and ends up stranded on a crippled space freighter under attack by its own robot workers.
Utilising a draining battery mechanic in place of lives, Assault Android Cactus challenges you to think fast and keep the bullets flying, blending the gameplay of western styled arena shooters with aspects of Japanese style bullet hell as you charge head first through transforming stages, massive boss battles and an eclectic cast of characters on the way to saving the day.
