I already play the heck out of it on my steam deck and I'm looking for something else for my phone.

and I'm looking for something else for my phone
Bro-Tato is quite similar I hear.
There's no dash in Brotato. It's similar, but has distinct waves of enemies with shopping between waves. I like it.
Vampire Survivor is literally a rip-off of the Android game Magic Survival, so that exists. A review says: "Pricing/Ads are very fair: you can pay like 5 bucks once to get it fully ad free forever."

That's a good recommendation, unfortunately I've already played it to death. 😸
I can recommend Magic Survival. Came out before Vampire Survivors, but has been worked on slower. Runs usually last from 16?min (normal) to 30min (endless). Game autosaves occasionally during runs so you can continue later on. English translation varies in quality, but everything can be understood imo.
Has revive with an ad once per run and another ad sometimes when ending a run. Leveling classes is slow, but can be sped up by spending real money. Personally I'm fine with the slow progression, but others may not like it.
Brotato is good and available on multiple platforms.
Brotato makes me realize I'm not very good at mobile games.
Brotato is amazing. One of the best.
Its feels like mix of Crimsonland (PC) and Meteor Blitz (Android), both amazing games. I love brotato, thx for the comment. Im still trying to figure out how much is it pay to win tho
Brotato isn't pay to win afaik. From round 1 you can beat the main track and follow up with an endless build.
Thats great to hear because Im getting addicted haha
Meh...just accidentally figured if I die I can restart game and repeat level. Meh...much less hardcore than it looked like at first
The YouTuber "Wanderbots" covers a ton of games akin to Vampire survivors and the genre has a pseudo name of "bullet heaven" (opposite of a bullet hell). Plenty of amazing ones like "Death must die" though I cannot remember all the names off the top of my head, just take a look through the videos and I'm sure you'll find a ton
I like swarm survivor as the genre title myself.
Did vampire survivors really create the genre?
I think bullet heaven works in the sense that you spray the bullets, but it is also a swarm survivor too so I can agree with that as well.
I don't believe it was the first, but I do believe it was the one that brought the genre to the spotlight. Since Vampire survivors came out the genre has taken off and we've seen a great many takes on it which personally, I've enjoyed. I find the rather short gameplay nice for fitting into tight schedules and non-commitment gameplay
I would recommend Bio Prototype and Star Survivor Premium. I played both on pc and they are just as great on android.
Death Must Die.
You're in the Android community, and this doesn't appear to be an Android game.
This is it, chief. The current pinnacle of the genre until something better comes around.
Halls of Torment. If Diablo and Vampire Survivors had a baby
Edit: not an android game :(

Oh! My bad, didn't notice the community :/
Deep rock galactic: survivor is so addictive, love it❤️
On Android?
Oh shoot, I didn't see that. No, not on Android. Sorry😅
Still a great game though.
"Spirit hunters: infinite horde" is good.
Not finding that. Link?
Sorry, I missed the 'android' part. It's only on pc.
V rising!
That isn't in the same genre though
My bad, I didn’t realize vampire survivor was the game. I thought he wanted vampire games in general.
No excuses, straight to the gulag!!
Another day in the life of Ivan Denisovich
Absolutely not
