Ok this was based heavily but unofficially on Aliens. Back in the days when most of you guys were still swimming about in your fathers ball sack, the was a cool little game called Alien Breed on the Amiga.
Here is some wiki info about the game.
QuoteThe game was based heavily - and unofficially - on the Alien films, specificially Aliens, and also on the 8-bit-era games Laser Squad and Paradroid[2] (although the game bears some gameplay similarities with Gauntlet, with which it has been compared[3], as well an obvious comparison with Sega's Alien Syndrome). Alien Breed consists of the player or players having to find the lift down to the next level, occasionally setting the self destruct sequence to blow up the level above them. The players collect or purchase a variety of weapons from the space station's computer terminals. In some versions of the game, these so called Intex terminals provide additional features such as a clone of the classic computer game Pong. Credits found on the ground have to be saved for these weapons and other enhancements, each giving the players an edge over the gradually more and more powerful Alien forces. In advanced levels, players are occasionally trapped in enclosed spaces with huge "boss" aliens, reminiscent of the Alien Queen.
Encountering aliens on level one (Amiga version).Alien Breed was in many ways a 2D precursor to the popular 1993 FPS Doom[citation needed]. In both games the gameplay invariably consists of clearing each level by rampaging from point A to point B. (The third game in the series, Alien Breed: Tower Assault, introduced non-linear gameplay: some levels do not require to be completed before exiting, and the game can be completed in several different ways).
I remember playing this game when i was in my teens and loved it loads, so was thinking i would make a thread about the game because i see no mention about it.
