Product Description

Manufacturer's Description
Without a doubt the most original title released this year, Alien Hominid is a breath of fresh gaming air. Coming straight from art-house developer The Behemoth, it puts a modern, artistic twist on the sideways-scrolling shooters of the past.

The word 'frenetic' doesn't come close to describing the experience of playing this super-fast and hypercolourful explosion of a game; it literally drips with graphical style and gameplay flair. Its boundless energy easily snares hardcore and casual gamers alike into the purest gaming experience in years.

5.0 out of 5 stars big sleeper hit, 6 Jun 2005

By	Mr. A. Minshull "minshull6" (uk) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

i brought this came with caution as im not really a big shoot em up fan. but something just appealed to me . im so glad i did buy it , the graphics are excellent big bright loads of colour its like playing a cartoon. the sound is ok nice little tune . gameplay is brill very hectic all the time none stop action , and the veichles you drive are a right laugh. the main character is a cute little alien who has to get his ship back from the fbi . to round it up its fast brill graphics and very addictive with lots of multiplayer options which are great fun. only negative can be a bit hard on later levels. i would recomend this to anyone.

1.0 out of 5 stars Returned to shop within 24 hours, 13 Jul 2005

By	Mr MAP "Why oh why must I have a vowel for a ... (North West, UK) - See all my reviews

This game would have upset me had I got it for Christmas 15 years ago for my Megadrive. I would have felt ripped-off had I just purchased this for �3 for my mobile phone. If I'd downloaded this from a java/flash games website I would have very quickly lamented the wasted bandwidth and closed the window.

The fact that Alien Hominid features on a downloadable flash game website isn't surprising. Being honest the gameplay there isn't all that different to this full price effort. The control mechanics are stiff; feeling like they have been ripped straight out of an amateur web game. And all too quickly I felt I had paid a lot of money for very little game.

I've been a keen supporter of the 2D genre throughout the next-gen 3D onslaught, and I must admit that the graphics are creative and amusing.

But the gameplay is so repetitious by modern standards (and by old standards actually) and so unforgivingly difficult (you often re-generate in impossible situations meaning multiple lives are lost consecutively) that inspite of its 2D appearance, it seems like yet another game where style presides over content.

If this had come out for the Megadrive or SNES it would've got 10 for graphics, and an overall of 7. Why? Because even back then, there were far better games within this genre. So ultimately, if you wish to spend �25 on a superb multiplayer 2D shoot 'em up, hunt down an old Megadrive and a copy of Gunstar Heroes. It really is a lot better.
