Retro-inspired side-scrolling arcade shooter Frutz is out now on iOS and Android. Developed for players chasing perfect runs while avoiding missile-filled screens, the mobile release sends players through five distinct cosmic worlds to defeat Lord Zorkannan's strongest guardians.
Gameplay and World Progression
The campaign spans five handcrafted, short stages that require constant shooting, enemy dodging, and close-range grazing to keep combo chains active. Players can dash through tight bullet patterns and utilize a varied arsenal featuring spread shots, lasers, missiles, shields, and bombs.
The journey takes place across the following environments:
- Forest Planet: Overgrown chaos kicking off the campaign.
- Ice World: Alters movement mechanics.
- Volcanic World: Built around magma pressure.
- Storm Ruins: Features shifting flows.
- Cosmic Rift: Reality-warping final destination where players face Lord Zorkannan.
Unlockable Abilities and Score Chasing
Each time players defeat a guardian, they permanently unlock its Cosmic Gem ability, though each gem is limited to a single use per level. Beyond clearing the main campaign, stages support score chasing with individual scores, grades, crowns, S ranks, and no-hit runs attached to every attempt. Dedicated players who master every stage can also unlock a golden ship.
