    Pineapple Smash Crew is a squad-based top-down shooter, with a strong retro style (models, fonts and music). The pace is frantic, the controls are witty and the game fluid. So much for the positive points.

    Since I prefer a certain amount of novelty and surprise, this one is not for me in spite of its qualities (a great piece of code and a genuine love for retro).    … Expand

    This game is terrible. I give it a 2 instead of 0 because it is a complete game without any bugs and it has a professional apperance. Everything else about this game is boring as hell: the shooting, the enemies, the rooms, the objectives. I have played at least 10 indie games on steam, this one was pretty terrible considering the cost. If you have any reservations about buy this game justThis game is terrible.

    Indie-game Pineapple Smash Crew tries to be a bit too old-school, and therefore lacks innovation and an interesting or challenging gameplay experience.

    Pineapple Smash Crew's weapons are by far its strongest point, an arsenal well engineered enough to support a much more intense game. Here they're wasted on a shooter that starts slowly and never speeds up, with solid foundations but nothing on top.

    If you like to set your own goals and don't need a high-score table to know you're having fun, then Pineapple Smash Crew is well worth the $10. [May 2012, p.81]
