A downloadable game for Windows

The galaxy is under threat of an evil army, lead by the twisted Starchless. It is up to the Potatostrike to lead the charge against them, defeat Starchless, and restore balance.

Welcome to this SHMUP spinoff of MF-01 Aerostrike. Expect action, bullets, explosions, and the ultimate potato-based space fighter!

Can be played with Mouse, Keyboard, or Gamepad.

Mouse or Gamepad recommended for the best experience.

Planned additions for the future:

  • As of version 0.2.0, all main content has been added to the game.
  • If you'd like to see something else, like new Potato ships or a local co-op mode, feel free to leave a comment!

It needs more missions, but It was still fun to play. Happy to see where it will go in future :-)

Thank you! At the time of writing, Mission 2 is already built, all that's missing is adding the background music. It will be added in the next patch, which hopefully should be done before April 18th.

Feel free to let me know what you think about it once it's live!
