Yeah, I had only heard about the strategy game, and not paid much attention, and briefly wondered if this was some alternate view for that. (Apparently not, the RTS is pretty conventional.) Funny that suddenly there’s multiple Starship Trooper (movie) games coming out now.
I wondered if this was a Left4Dead-alike, which would kind of work (constantly pushing forward in order to barely survive an infinite onslaught), but reading a bit elsewhere, it does fundamentally sound more like a wave shooter where things get constantly tougher, but you recover resources that allows you to build up weapons/defenses. So yeah, maybe some gameplay mechanics (at least) a little bit shoehorned into the IP…
