Pineapple Smash Crew

About

Pineapple Smash Crew is a tactical shooter where you command a squad through chaotic levels packed with aliens, robots, and zombies. The core gameplay revolves around positioning your team and hurling grenades, lots of grenades. Each mission forces you to balance offense and defense while upgrading your arsenal with new explosive tools. The controls are straightforward but demand quick thinking as waves of enemies close in. Made entirely by solo developer Rich Edwards with music from chiptune vet Syphus, the game leans into a retro aesthetic while adding modern touches to its combat loop. Its focus on grenade-based tactics and tight level design earned a 78% critic score on release. The blend of old-school charm and frantic action keeps things fresh even as the body count rises.
