Alien Hominid: Legendary Run 'n Gun Arcade Action
Alien Hominid is the groundbreaking hand-drawn 2D run 'n gun arcade game created by Tom Fulp and Dan Paladin that catapulted The Behemoth into indie gaming history. After crashing your flying saucer on Earth, you must fight your way through legions of FBI secret agents to reclaim your spacecraft.
Featuring lightning-fast arcade shooting, jump-and-gun combat, and fluid animation, players can blast ray guns in eight directions, toss devastating grenades, burrow underground to ambush agents from below, and jump onto enemies' shoulders to bite their heads off!
Commandeer enemy automobiles, pilot your recovered UFO, and battle colossal mechanical boss machines in one of the most stylish and challenging side-scrolling shooters ever created.
How to play Alien Hominid
- Use Arrow Keys or WASD to run, duck, and aim your blaster in 8 directions.
- Press A to fire your blaster; hold A to charge up a devastating giant plasma blast.
- Press S to jump over incoming bullets, landmines, and rocket salvos.
- Press D to toss high-explosive grenades, and press Down + S to burrow underground.
Tips for winning and high scores
- Burrowing underground (Down + Jump) makes your alien completely invulnerable to enemy gunfire and explosions.
- Charge your blaster shot while advancing through empty areas so you can vaporize heavy vehicles instantly.
- Jump onto FBI agents' heads to bite them off—this grants temporary invulnerability frames during the animation.
- Keep moving and jumping continuously; staying stationary in one spot makes you an easy target for enemy snipers.
