A Good Alien Game

Alien Breed: Tower Assault is the third game in the Alien Breed franchise, a series of science-fiction top-down shooters.The game was developed and published by Team 17, who also developed the Worms series. While not quite the developers best game ever made, ABTA is still a great experience and offers lots of fun. The plot of the game goes something like this: A deep space barracks receives a distress signal from a science facility on an otherwise uninhabited planet. With no idea what to expect, a small troop of soldiers are sent to search the planet for survivors and neutralize any threat.Once the ships near the facility, however, automated security lasers begin attacking, picking the ships off one by one. Only two soldiers survive, crash-landing in the outer perimeter of the facility. The player takes control of the characters there as the game begins. What I like about this game is that you can play CO-OP with a friend, which is more fun by the way. Apart from other top-down shooters I have played before, this one has elements I have never seen before. First of all, the game is not linear. There are several ways to complete this game, raising the replay value so that you may experience the different paths. There have reports of 276 possible ways of completing the game, which is really mindblowing. Another thing I have noticed is that you can shoot and walk backwards at the same time, but it's kind of slow and not really too helpful if you have to deal with a lot of enemies. The graphics are nice, but the sound isn't quite original. I have notice some effects that have been sampled from other games. Overall, ABTA is a great top-down shooter and if you have a friend to play along, go ahead and try it out!
