Strike Buster Prototype is a retro style arcade wave shooter featuring combo-based combat and twin-stick shooter controls. It blends retro aesthetics with modern gameplay elements such as a physics system and twin stick controls. The game is already available on PC and Switch, with the mobile version finally coming very soon on August 9.

During
Taptap's Pocket Playfest 2023, Strike Buster Prototype also won the "Most Discussed" award, garnering over 4000 player reviews on the platform, which speaks volumes about the game's simple pick-up-and-play nature and accessibility.

I was fortunate enough to have tried an Early Android build of the game and posted a review a few months ago, rating the game four out of five stars with the following summary:

Strike Buster Prototype successfully combines the best elements of retro arcade shooters with modern gameplay innovations. Its focus on combo accumulation, unique weapon types, and high scores provides a challenging and addictive gameplay experience. However, don’t expect a full-on game featuring a story or a campaign mode.”

With its emphasis on high scores, combo accumulation, and weapon switching, this game offers an addictive yet challenging gameplay loop that will keep players coming back for more, starting this
August 9.

Strike Buster: Prototype is an addictive retro shooter that’s easy to pick up - Pocket Playfest
Shoot, die, repeat. Strike Buster: Prototype is a retro-style survival shooter that reminds me of classics like Space Invaders and even more recent titles I’ve reviewed, such as ZeroVector. Although previously available on Nintendo Switch and PC, Strike Buster: Prototype is soon coming to Android phones, which is good news if you’re the type that likes highly addictive gameplay loops and beating high scores.
