Aster Gets Armed is on my list of games to play and I have no frame of reference for Units' personality, so please excuse the rush-job, the possibly innaccurate character portrayal, and the hyperfixation co-star.
A very rushed, first attempt drawing of Officer Units, with her cute robot hands on her hips with a compressed speech bubble abobe her head reading-

"NOPE, THAT'S ILLEGAL TOO, HUN."fucking Skull Kid wearing Majora's Mask saying in anger-

"ARE YOU FUCKI

Finished version of that portrait I was making of Aster, the protagonist of @rambleprism.bsky.social's game Aster Gets Armed. It was quite a fun little shoot-em'-up game, I recommend it. #art #pixelart #characterart #fanart #Aster #AsterGetsArmed #indiegame #sage2026 #sage #portrait #pixel #ocart

I got really emotional tonight about how awesome indie game dev is and how incredible it is that people can make their ideal games into a reality. Please keep working your games, no matter how big or small your progress is. You doing this benefits us all. I'm so proud of you, no matter what. 🥹

Aster Gets Armed That was fun. The characters are very marketable, especially that stupid sexy robot. That's all I say, because I filled out a feedback form already.

Ahh, how I yearn for old videogame manuals... 😭 Check out this Quick Guide before you play the demo to stay one punch ahead of Aster's enemies!
Aster gets armed quick guide!

Move with the left stick or arrow keys.
Punch with the right face button or spacebar.
Tap to punch once (costs no honey).
Hold to break shields (costs honey!).
Dash with the lower face button (or ZR) (or D).
Breaks everything that's made of glass!.
Shoot with the left face button or F.
Only effective on TINY enemies.

BOOM effect. With a tiny floating Aster in her ship next to it.

Careful now! Charged punched cost honey. Keep an eye on that right meter!

Tip! See an early opening? Try punching!

Aster Gets Armed. Absurdly delightful little SHMUP with very unsubtle themes, absurdly charming visuals, and it uses Sonic Rush music which I appreciate. Super short but I desperately wanna see more from this one. Trans rights.

Meet/fear the diligent Officer Units! 👋 A group of hivemind robots, upholding law on Earth in 2069. They're designed to appear non-threatening and act all cute, but you'd better not get on their bad side. Which, with their ever-changing laws, is almost impossible... 😬 #gamedev #indiedev #ocsky
Text reads: Officer Units
Banners read: ILLEGAL FUN DETECTED

Drawing of a police robot with a monitor for a head, holding a pair of handcuffs, her eyes are lit up ominously.

Drawings of a small turret piloted by an Officer Unit, a crab with handcuffs for claws and sunglasses, several Officer Units floating down from parachutes, and a green and blue spaceship.

Say hi to ASTER! 👋 A skilled inventor from Amsterdam, with zero luck and zero friends... prefers talking to machines over talking to people. She suddenly finds herself getting chased by the entire galactic police force! Luckily, she has ARMED her GUNS-SHIP! 💪 #gamedev #indiedev #ocsky
Sweaty chubby black girl with spiky yellow hair doing a peace sign with her hand, with the silhouettes of robot police officers behind her. 

There's doodles of her on the right showing her in her 'battle armor', Aster laughing, Aster looking angry and her spaceship with giant inflatable muscular arm.

The banners read "ILLEGAL FUN DETECTED"
