Annotation

Endless darkness, gloomy long passages of the military complex became the abode of evil, as thousands of bloodthirsty monsters fill its offices, warehouses and research laboratories. Your mission is simple: destroy strangers at all costs. You will be provided with the necessary amount of explosives, a variety of weapons and a bunch of equipment. The invasion has begun, you have one chance, and you must use it. The fate of mankind is now in your hands!

Gameplay

The player will play for the paratrooper, after selecting the gender of the character. Basically, the game boils down to the destruction of hordes of monsters attacking the player by all possible means and means, however, as the game progresses, the hero will have to complete simple missions to find explosives, turn on electricity, mine various objects, etc.

The image of monsters and their abilities as you progress through the game are constantly changing. If at the beginning of the game, monsters are not so serious a threat, then towards the end the enemies are armed with more and more dangerous weapons - rocket launchers, laser guns. However, the player before the start of each level can buy the required amount of weapons. In addition to weapons, you can purchase other items that contribute to the destruction of monsters: a first-aid kit, a flashlight, armor, a night vision device and a small combat droid flying above the character’s head.

At the end of the game, a map of the first level is shown, and a green small monster who leaves the territory of the complex runs out of a hole that the player will make at the beginning of the game.

Characters and Enemies

At the beginning of the game, the player can choose one of the two characters (guy or girl) to complete. Characters differ in appearance and initial characteristics (a guy has more life and strength, but less accuracy and speed, a girl - vice versa). These characteristics are enhanced by implants that can either be bought or picked up (after killing some monsters in survival mode or in hiding places during the passage of the campaign).

During the passage you can meet 6 types of enemies.

Material Environment

Although the game is a two-dimensional arcade, still the player can directly interact with the material world surrounding him, in particular, the player can move various objects - chairs, barrels, explode gas cylinders and break the monitor screens, in addition, as a result of projectiles getting hit, for example, in a wall, marks remain on it. Also, the graphic characteristics of the game create dynamic lighting.

Modes

The game has two game modes - a campaign (in this mode the player is directly involved in passing the game through the levels) and survival (the player is in a limited area, from all sides of which an ever-increasing number of monsters are approaching him).

Shop

In the passage mode, a menu opens in front of each level, in which the player can buy equipment: weapons, ammunition, armor, implants .

Add-ons

Alien Shooter: Fight for Life

The add-on requires a full version of the original game and contains 5 new levels that differ from ten levels of the original by increased complexity. There is also a plot-plot about a certain virus that can stop the invasion of monsters. The hero's task is to find a sample of this virus. At the end of the game, we learn that the virus sample could not be saved, and it was destroyed.

Alien Shooter: The Experiment

The addition requires a full version of the original game and contains 5 new, challenging levels. Contains new music, new landscape objects, and two new enemies: flying monsters (Bat) and critters (Chisels), which are the main innovation of the add-on and the strongest monsters in the game - fast, inflicting huge damage and having the highest standard of living of creatures. Just these creatures are part of the plot: being developed by people to combat the invasion of creatures, new creatures were assimilated by aliens and only complicated the survival of humanity. At the end of the game there is a boss: an improved creature with an attacking installation on the back.
