Aerostrike - Rubber Ducks Challenge 3


Heyo everyone! I'm happy to make an important announcement; Aerostrike will have a collaboration event with Rubber Ducks!

Rubber Ducks is a community that brings Indie Developers and Content Creators together. As such, this collaboration is a challenge that focuses on Streamers and Content Creators, but anyone that wishes to participate is encouraged anyways.

The rules are as follows:

  • The event starts on May 1st and ends on May 15th. 
    • The event's end date has been extended until May 31st.
  • To participate, you must download the special Rubber Ducks version of the game's demo, available in the store page right here on itch.
    • There is both a Borderless Windowed version, and a Regular Windowed one. Feel free to choose whichever you prefer.
  • The Challenge involves completing the game's Demo with 3 lives. You can try as many times as you'd like.
  • You may choose any difficulty for the challenge, and you'll be ranked based off the highest difficulty you complete.


For Streamers and Content Creators:

  • To submit your results, join the Rubber Ducks discord group ( discord.gg/XZExx42r6h ), and post a link of your Challenge VoD in the #rd-challenge-current channel for review.
    • Alternatively, you can take a screenshot of the result screen indicating what rank you were awarded (F12 on Keyboard, hold the START button on Gamepad) for review by the community.
    • Screenshots are stored in: %localappdata%\Aerostrike\Screenshots

Rubber Ducks Challenge 3 Results Screen

This results screen will appear after completing the Demo. Take a screenshot to confirm your results.


For everyone else:

  • Feel free to reply to this post with your awarded rank, or upload a screenshot of your results screen on Twitter and tag @Lmg3864G and use #RubberDucksChallenge3 to show off your achievement.

If enough Streamers and Content Creators complete the challenge, I'll permanently add a new paintjob to Aerostrike based off the Rubber Ducks logo. It is called the Iron Pekin.

Don't forget that the event starts on May 1st and ends on May 15th. Now go out and give them hell, pilots!

Hey, I claimed all 4 rewards for this event! The last battle just before the exit area was a tough nut to crack in Trial by Fire, but in the end, I beat it and got the 'Legendary Squadron' rank reward. ;)

That's awesome, congratulations! While the event officially starts on May 1st, it's still pretty cool to see you've taken on and beaten the challenge, especially on Trial by Fire.

Any particular strategy you used for the final battle?

Not much to say for a 'strategy' - a lot of evasive maneuver and taking cover, plus a small portion of luck, perhaps? ;) I picked out the Scouts first cuz their speed and bullet spraying make their attacks harder to evade than those of the other bigger enemies. And I tried to minimize the flank attacks by enemies - in Trial by Fire difficulty, those are pretty lethal. Using the front-shield saved my life so many times, of course.

The Forward Shield does help a lot when you get the hang of it. It throws me off whenever I have to do a test run and don't have it anymore.
