I think this is very decent game. Remind me of old school top view shooter like alien shooter. The aliens design is mostly original too. but I think the mission is too long and have no impactfull moment that make me remember bout some scene and there's also only 1 boss fight for the whole game. maybe it could be better if you add some unique vehicle or gun stand to control on a certain mission or area. or maybe add more bosses too.

Short game that gets a little repetitive by the end, but it ends about the right time before it becomes annoying. Ambushes happen often and there is little variation on that and you occasionally wait outside their holes waiting for the last alien to appear, which feels a little underwhelming. The boss fight at the end isn't very interesting and can be beaten by just moving while sprinting mostly. I would recommend playing this with some form of controller. The price for the trilogy pack is decent, maybe pick it up while on sale. I did lose my save at one point and had to restart, but I would say the game is 4-6 hours long total.

A short game, which sets you as a marine in a ship infested with creatures. Sometime stressful, sometime tough, you do have to manage your ammunition quite carefully, which contributes to making it feel tense. I was originally not sold on the top view camera but, in combination with the ray of light of the lamptorch, it heightens the tension.

The Alien Breed trilogy ( Impact, Assault and Descent ) is a remake of the legendary Alien Breed games on AMIGA. I played them to the death when I was a child. They are made by the same developer, which is Team17. Alien Breed 1 (Impact) is a nice remake. They tried to recreate the legendary atmosphere and suspanse of the Amiga games. With solid success. You are a soldier/mechanic alone against an army of aliens. There is alot of backtracking and you have to constantly solve mechanical problems on the ship. The difficulty is just about right. On Veteran it's always on the edge of survival. It's very linear but the gameplay is still entertaining. You have to be tactical with the money and ammunition. There are 6 weapons to chose from, some are more efficient then other. It's of critical importance to upgrade some of the weapons. Of course the graphics is not very good but it's an old game. A big downside is that there are constant explosions on the ship and the camera shakes badly, so it's not good for the eye sight. A solid 2D retro shooter.

It's a pretty straight forward isometric arcade twin-stick shooter. Simple to pick up gameplay, mild maze layouts with typical backtrack and find the key mechanics. Graphics are average for 2010; sounds and music are suitable for the genre. At this price, it's a cheap fun few hours of wiping out alien swarms with guns and grenades. --- Bottom line: It's simple, it's cheap and it's fun if you like twin-stick shooters. --- [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/38232109/]While you are here, would you consider following my curator page?
