About The Alien Way

✦ AI summary

The Alien Way is a high-speed 2D pixel platformer where you dash across space-themed levels, dodging hazards and saws while unlocking and upgrading unique character skins. With three distinct game modes ranging from classic platforming to spaceship flights and super-speed races, it demands lightning-fast reflexes against steadily escalating challenges set to an atmospheric, pulse-pounding soundtrack.

The Alien Way is a high-speed platformer made in 2D pixel art. Jump from platform to platform, bypassing saws and the space abyss. Open all skins with unique characteristics and pump them in a special shop in the main menu.

single button press runner with a flappy bird style level every few levels to change skins, click on the runner when on the main menu short levels with no checkpoints and 1 hit deaths only 30 levels you can pay points to revive, but it sends you back to the beginning of the level? the only difference is you keep all the things you picked up when you pause and unpause the game will give you a 3 second timer until it starts back up but the timer never goes away and just keeps counting down 3 2 1 3 2 1 3 2 1 3 2 1 3 2 1 3 2 1 2/10

This is almost impossible. I've spent almost an hour trying to pass the first stage of this game and have only managed to jump onto three platforms. You need exact timing to get to each platform; I'm just not fast enough. I must have died a few hundred times at the very least and am now giving up completely as I can't see the point of playing a game that's so difficult. Maybe 20 years ago I'd have had the skills to pass the level, sadly no more.

The Alien Way is yet another construction kit template copy+paste from Russian serial shovelware pushers, Piece of Voxel/Wood Stone Game. These guys (or just one guy flipping accounts to mislead gamers) do nothing but copy premade game templates and game tutorials, fill out a few things/stamp out basic levels using the construction kit templates, slap on an asset flipped set of sprites/assets, and dump them on Steam and into DailyIndieGame bundles as cash grabs. Trying to get paid for someone else's game templates, assets... at best, this is shovelware, at worst, it's a scam/cash grab. This is just a very poor reskin of a basic Unity endless runner template, there's zero merit or depth or value as a genuine game for PC gamers. Wood Stone Game/Piece Of Voxel have shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab. Here's some examples so you can see for yourself: [list] [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1547820]Top Truck Driver[/url]" = [url=https://marketplace.yoyogames.com/assets/5820/hill-racing-template-gms1-2]Hill Racing Template[/url] developed by Janko Knez [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/ap…

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

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.
