Review:

the game is actually pretty old – it was made in 2003 - but it’s still selling because it’s cool.

I wanted to review it because at the moment I can’t find any other Indie games like it and I thought that it would be good to introduce it to those of you that haven’t heard of it. I also played a demo of the sequel the other day, and it looks promising; kinda more of the same but with modern graphics.

The weapons are very like the doom standard ones: two pistols with infinite ammo, a shotgun, a grenade launcher, a minigun, a rocket launcher and so on up to a magma minigun, which totally rocks, but by that point in the game, you’ll need it - believe me! You can find these weapons in the game but most of the time you’ll probably buy them first in the shop that appears at the end of each level.

Money can be found when exploring rooms and blowing up crates, and dead aliens drop money as well (quite what they were doing with the money in the first place I don’t know). You also get ammo and health packs the same way.

Conclusion:

It’s clear that Alien Shooter, by Sigma-Team, has been influenced by many games; but that’s fine, because it was influenced by *great* games
