What could be more awesome than fighting off alien invaders with your puny ship? Or fighting off robots with your one robot? You know the movie we’ve all been waiting for Star Wars: Salvation, where we finally get to see the Droid Wars. If that movie was going to be made, and it had a movie tie-in game then Droid Assault would be it! Wait a sec, cooler than fighting robots off with your one robot, isn’t that what this is? Well no, the only thing that could be cooler than that would be fighting off waves or robots with your own robot army! That’s right, instead of Robotron-style arena-based droid combat against impossible odds, you get Robotron-style arena-based multi-droid combat against incredible odds! That’s just what this is too! Unfortunately we don’t get to see C3P0 take on a Cyberdyne Systems model 101, but we can at least pretend.

“Invaders! Possibly from space!”, exclaimed Leela.
“People of Earth, I am Lrrr of the planet Nintendoo-64. Tremble in fear at our three different kinds of ships!”, said the alien leader as if it were a statement of fact.
“Alright. It’s Saturday night, I have no date, a two-liter bottle of Shasta and my all-Rush mix tape! Let’s Rock!!” Fry looked up at the alien horde and then got down to business. Listening to Rush’s Tom Sawyer Fry managed to start blasting aliens by moving his giant war vehicle left and right with arcade like precision.
Meanwhile in the lead alien ship, The second in command possibly Lrrr’s wife shouts, “We’re losing ships sir! What are your orders?!” “Increase speed, drop down, and reverse direction!” shouted Lrrr in reply!
Fry continued to blast the alien retinue.
When you can’t call Rambo, you can call ROMBO!

“You are the apprentice of the great Wizard, sent in the unholy lands to recover the Black Rombo from the hands of the evil mage’s castle. In your journey through the lands, you’ll encounter several creatures in evil mage’s service. Do not think twice before sending them to meet their creator; these are damned souls, lost forever in the realm from where the evil mage came and transformed an once healthy place to a dead zone where only the darkest entities enter.” – That’s what the webpage for Rombo by BadSector aka Kostas Michalopoulos (at least I’m assuming his name is that since he’s copyrighted the page this game is on.) Okay so Rombo is a thing and not a person, big deal, Rambo, Rombo, Jimbo, it’s all the same to me. Rombo is a first person “3D” flash game in the vein of the greats like Wolfenstein 3D, or Doom. So essentially you need to find this Rombo.
