    The sheer audacity of Alien Breed '92's end sequence! This is it! All of it! It goes from "This is your fault for buying a budget game" to "We ran out of space but on purpose" via "Using our ~huge~ selection of in-game cheats means you wasted your time" and then "Please buy AB2!" Fuck you too, AB92!

    Settings with a great premise that you can expand upon. Worlds I've thought about are slice-of-life, ones that touch on a larger world. Like the updated 'Alien Breed' from Team17 or Duncan Jones' 'Moon'. I even created an expanded universe for 80s arcade game 'Asteroids'. It's a challenge! 2/2

    We need to have an honest conversation about Alien Breed, particularly Alien Breed 2, on Amiga. I've come to the realisation that it's not a good game. Needlessly punishing, poor level design and repetitive gameplay which doesn't feel satisfying.

    What's your "no one but me remembers" game? Stunt GP probably. One of the lesser-known games by Team 17, most people only think of worms or maybe their Amiga era games like Alien Breed. Criminally underrated, IMO. I think most critics didn't understand how the game's stunt system worked.

    I feel like Hotline Miami is old and popular enough that we can just use that as the reference point. But if we're going really old, the POV does remind me a bit of Alien Breed? Certainly not the NES however, since no NES game ever looked like this.

    After so many years I finally beat it! Alien Breed II - The Horror Continues. Such an amazingly polished game, but with a steep difficulty curve. It gives just two level codes over 17 levels. The trick is to memorize all levels with a destruction sequence and buy the high rebounders gun early. A medium map is also very useful for the levels that begin with a countdown. #amiga #amiga500 #retrogaming #alienbreed
