The Good: One-of-a-kind graphics and style, great weapon power-ups, cool bosses, neat level design, PDA games are fun, gore!
The Bad: Difficulty is sometimes unbalanced, no downloadable main game levels, you can play this for free on the internet
I remember seeing this game back when it came out on consoles but the mixed reviews kind of turned me off from it. After picking up the GBA version I loved the game and now it’s even better on XBA. This is a 2D side scroller shooter that is very funny, fun, gory, and simple. You are an alien who is being chased by the FBI and you have to make your way back to your planet and on the way, this one single kid helps you out. You can pick up weapon power-ups which are cool and fun such as lasers, ice bursts, and slime. You also have a knife for when you are up close to enemies you can slice them apart. You have grenades as well and your default zapper gun that has infinite ammo. You can also jump on enemies and bite their heads off and what not. What’s another great feature are the PDA games. They are 2D stick drawn graphics where you have to get to the end of the level without dying. You can also buy and download new levels for the only 150MSP which is great. The only real gripe is the difficulty and sometimes be too hard and bosses are really neat yet take FOREVER to kill.
