I picked up Alien Hominid today. This game is awesome! If you like Contra or Metal Slug, pick this up. I kid you not, this game is great and you can get it for only $30.
This game also shows that small companies can make awesome games that actually do sell. The art style in this game is sweet and damn hilarious. Beautiful 2d stuff here, especially the explosions. The gameplay is pure old school bliss. However, this game is hard. Be prepared to die. And die again. And again. Good thing you get lots of continues.
Anyway, get out there and support a small developer by buying this totally awesome game…or I will jump on your back, ride you like monkey and then bite off your head!
Absolutely. This game doesn’t get nearly enough recognition.

So it’s like Contra but with adorable little alien critters? Sounds like a great time to me. I’ll check it out after I beat Devil May Cry and RE: Director’s Cut.

Challenging 2d hyper-kinetic old school shooting action? yes please!
Getting killed every 5 seconds by stuff you can’t see? Not so much.
