Alien Hominid: Earth
built 643 days ago
Alien Hominid is a side-scrolling shoot-em-up in which the player assumes the role of an alien, crash-landed on Earth, who really wants his/her/it's UFO back. The only problem is that between them there are hundreds of gun-toting, alien hunting men in black. Cue a full on frenzy of blasting, bouncing and bodies.

Alien Hominid Screenshots In a classic videogame setup, Alien Hominid opens with an alien spaceship crashing to Earth. The alien escapes and chaos erupts as a result. Sounds familiar, right? Stop the alien from destroying Earth, yada yada yada. Only this time, you aren̢۪t playing Earth̢۪s brave defenders. No, this time you are a little yellow alien that is seriously pissed off about his spaceship being stolen by FBI thugs and is hell-bent and determined to get it back.

The concept behind Alien Hominid is simple. An alien is passing by Earth in a spaceship, and the FBI shoots him down and steals it. Now he's trying to get it back, and he's willing to go through the entire FBI to do it if he has to. This may seem a simple concept, but it's enough to explain what's going on, and a game like this doesn't need a long, complicated backstory.
