Evaluation

Pineapple Smash Crew launched on February 2, 2012 as a self-contained, feature-complete indie game developed by a single designer. The store description presents a fixed set of features — 13 grenade types, 4 power-up types, and a randomly generated level structure — with no mention of planned expansions, DLC, or ongoing updates. There are no DLC listings, no developer news posts, and no announcements of future content of any kind. The game appears to have shipped as a finished product and has remained unchanged since its release. There is nothing to suggest additional content was ever planned or delivered after launch.

PSC features tight squad formation shooting, aliens, robots, zombies and grenades- loads and loads of grenades! Level up and choose wisely from an assortment of devastating grenade-launched weaponry... PSC's unique modern-retro flavour will take you back to the classics of old then smash you back into the present with a 'ka-boom!'

Key Features:

  • 13 grenade types including: rockets, laserbeam, whirlwind, mine, holo-decoy and tele-frag!
  • Randomly generated ships, never play two the same!
  • 4 power-up types: Slow-time, Invincibility, Four-Times-Damage, and Strike Fear!
  • Toe-tapping frantic retro soundtrack by Syphus (un-mute that trailer!)
