The Last Rockstar

Swipe-to-slash brawler · Coming to Android

The farewell tour. Night one. The crowd turned. One rock star, one katana, and a light from above that won't let him quit.

Gifted from above

The Light Is Listening

Something up there has been listening since his first show. It never speaks and it's never seen. It just lights the stage, and every time he falls, it brings him back. "Not done yet."

Every zombie he cuts down bursts into golden light and ash. No gore, just holy fire. Beat a headliner and the light hands him a piece of his own past, rebuilt as a weapon:

  • The Cracked PickRiff Strike: combo finishers fire a wave of holy light.
  • The Live WirePower Chord: heavy strikes send out a ring of holy fire.
  • Shredder's HandsSolo: hit a 10+ combo and every swipe strikes twice.
  • The Last GuitarGuitarGod: halo, wings of light, ten seconds of untouchable.

How it plays

Swipe. Slash. Encore.

Pure touch controls on a fixed, cel-shaded arena. No virtual stick, no clutter, just your thumb and the crowd.

Swipe

Shred!

Swipe in any direction to slash that way. Zig-zag without lifting your thumb to chain a four-hit combo.

Hold

Heavy!

Hold and release for a heavy strike that smashes guards. Double-tap to dash straight through trouble.

Hype

Specials!

Land hits to build Hype, then spend it on four stage-sized specials.

Power SlideAmp BlastSpotlightEncore

16 Weapons

Katanas, swords, polearms and actual guitars, each tuned to swing differently. Plus throwing knives, pick stars, axes and molotovs.

Score

Combo x4

Rebirth

Again?

Fall and the light lifts you back up for another go. It'll cost you stars, though.
