Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Assault Android Cactus is a "twin-stick" Shoot 'Em Up note (like Smash TV or Robotron2084, each player is able to independently move and fire in different directions) by the indie developer Witchbeam, based on characters created by Tim Dawson, the creator of the webcomic Dragon Tails.The eponymous Cactus, a junior Interplanetary Police constable, has been dispatched to stop a robot uprising on board the enormous spaceship Genki Star. As soon as she crash lands aboard, she and the motley crew of other androids she's able to find are forced to battle hordes of killer robots.Unusually, although each character has their own Life Meter, Death Is Cheap — players can recover in a few seconds of mashing the fire button. The important thing is the battery: once it runs out, it's Game Over — and the only way to recharge is with a power-up dropped after defeating enough enemies. This encourages aggressive play.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Combined with the wide variety of characters with different play styles, along with levels that dynamically transform and gameplay bordering on Bullet Hell, the game has been winning a following from both media and gamers ever since it was made available on Steam's Early Access program in 2013 after winning Intel's Level Up game demo contest.The completed PC version is now available for Windows, Linux, and Macintosh OSX. The developers planned to release the finished game for Wii U, Playstation 4, and the PlayStation Vita in 2016, but were only able to release the PS4 port. An Xbox One (X) version was released on November 2017, and a Nintendo Switch version was released on March 2019. | |

Breaking the Fourth Wall | |
| Assault Android Cactus (Video Game) / int_1e7487cd | comment |
Breaking the Fourth Wall: If you play as Liquorice, her conversations with the Section Lords revolve around her deciding that They Have Outlived Their Usefulness, mostly as an Excuse Plot. When the player enters Collider, the level where you fight Liquorice, you will still fight Liquorice, who will ask you to explain your way out of this development. You (the playable Liquorice) then replies that you don't need to explain anything, and what matters is that this is a video game and that you're playable. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Assault Android Cactus (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: All four Section Lords openly fear or hate Starch, as shown in their pre-fight banter with her. Starch's replies, in turn, are all seemingly Word Salad-esque ramblings about playing or toying with them. Note that last part, because The Stinger reveals that she is the only android privy to, and capable of understanding, Liquorice's plans of corrupting Medulla (and by extension the Section Lords) into seeking Terra Nova, the original supercomputer AI that may or may not have independently gone rogue some time after her creation. And during the confessional dialogue between them, Starch also reveals that she does treat the entire plot like a game, one that simply ended in Liquorice's loss. | |

Fire-Breathing Weapon: Cactus' secondary weapon is a flamethrower. Peanut's primary weapon is a magma spewer. | |

Rank Inflation | |
| Assault Android Cactus (Video Game) / int_f711f899 | comment |
Rank Inflation: The S+ completion rank can only be earned by comboing every single enemy in the level in a single, unbroken chain, without getting knocked down once. If there are multiple players, all players must achieve this, or your rank will be demoted to S or A. | |

This Is a Drill | |
| Assault Android Cactus (Video Game) / int_f910567 | comment |
This Is a Drill: Peanut's secondary weapon, the Giga Drill Lance, a rocket-propelled drill that can send larger enemies flying across arenas before destroying them. | |

Faking the Dead | |
| Assault Android Cactus (Video Game) / int_f9876f7e | comment |
Faking the Dead: Medulla does this after her seventh phase...but gets back up and promptly unleashes hell upon the player with a huge rush of Mooks that has to be beaten within an extremely low time limit, represented by the golden battery used only for this fight. Fail and your player character is assimilated into Medulla's core. | |

Kill Streak | |
| Assault Android Cactus (Video Game) / int_fa87021 | comment |
Kill Streak: A major element of the scoring system is making kills within a 2.5 second window in order to keep up a combo. The longer your combo is, the higher your score multiplier (capped at 10x for chain lengths above 10). There are also "surge kills" which involves performing kills within a much smaller interval (0.25 seconds) for an additional 1.5x multiplier. | |

Good Old Robot | |
| Assault Android Cactus (Video Game) / int_fb86c5 | comment |
Good Old Robot: Peanut enforces this trope for herself. Despite being a skilled Wrench Wench, she deliberately does the bare minimum to keep her body functional, resulting in her visibly decrepit appearance. This does not harm her combat skill in the least. | |

World of Action Girls | |
| Assault Android Cactus (Video Game) / int_fd8e3e9d | comment |
World of Action Girls: All eight player characters are Robot Girls. And so is Liquorice, the mini-boss before the final boss. As noted above, you unlock her as a selectable character after beating Medulla. | |

Spider Tank | |
| Assault Android Cactus (Video Game) / int_ff8afd14 | comment |
Spider Tank: Venom, the fourth-stage boss. Unusually, players don't fight him directly; the first few phases are weapons deployed from his legs, destroyed when the phase ends. Once all the legs are gone, Venom swings his abdomen over the arena edge, before finally bringing his limbless torso into battle. | |
