About Alien Attack: Pocket Edition

✦ AI summary

Alien Attack: Pocket Edition is a retro pixel-art shooter where you blast through thousands of aliens while harvesting their energy to power up your weapon and collecting upgrades to strengthen your ship. Battle through enemy sectors with five unlockable characters, face epic boss encounters, and compete for achievements in this challenging yet accessible arcade-style action game.

You are a brave space trooper. You are here to destroy a lot of aliens. Your mission is to clear an enemy sector.

If they keep going, fight them as long as you can. There are only a couple thousands of them, so it's not a big deal... probably.

Your company has developed a brand new weapon that absorbs dead enemies' energy and makes you able to kill more and more of them. And you're so lucky to test it.

You have to return alive to deliver gathered results.

Dead enemies drop some microcircuits (if not damaged) that can be implanted into your ship to improve its durability. They can also drop some stolen from humans written-off ammunition if they have some.

Main features:

— 5 playable characters: unlock all of your squad members to exterminate every enemy in your sector.
— Challenging gameplay: not so hard, but not so easy!
— 5 epic boss battles: they want to tear you apart into pieces. But can you outsmart them?
— 12 achievements: you can compete with your friends and be the coolest guy!
— Retro atmosphere: pixel-art visuals, chip sounds and music... all of these brings up some nostalgic feelings... probably.
— Xbox controller support: you obviously should try it if you have one!

✦ AI summary

Alien Attack: Pocket Edition is a well-made arcade shooter with solid gameplay mechanics and a nice handheld aesthetic that most players find enjoyable once they adjust to the difficulty curve. The main complaints center on weapon progression feeling poorly balanced, particularly the transition between shot types, and the overall lack of content with limited enemy variety and boss encounters that can be beaten through repetitive strategies.

it's not as easy as you think, it will test you. Non the less it is a well made little game that is enjoyable to play, after you get the hang of it.

A decent iteration of Alien Attack in the handheld graphical style. If you want a title with arcade gameplay that wont have you pulling your hair out; I'd recommend this one.

This developer sucks, why is the progression from double shot to triple shot so baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad, its horrendous how bad it is that you would have had to develop a low IQ as a developer to think the triple shot was an improvement from double shot why not provide a choice to keep the previous double shot if your making an upgrade unplayable, makes calling it an upgrade redundant, if the spread wasn't so bad, if it wasn't just 1 shot to 2 shot back to 1.5 shot you mistakenly call triple shot, triple shot is worthless if the 2 extra shots in triple shot don't help in anyway, on top of making the weapon worthless you throw more enemies, here's a free idea from someone with a brain, if your going to throw more enemies after upgrading the weapon make weapon useful instead of worse, not to mention how worthless these power ups are, if your going to make worthless power ups then just remove them from the game so the focus can be on dodgi…

Alien Attack: Pocket Edition is an interesting take on the genre. There's nothing particularly offensive about it except that it lacks content. There's 5 bosses and 4(?) enemy types. Each boss is unique but several are "dumb" and you can sit in the same spot and shoot to kill it. I was able to get all achievements in 60 minutes, which left me wishing the game was a bit longer.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
