Most twin stick shooters play like Smash TV and are very much like an arcade game. Players will use these classes to go through a campaign map fighting off swarm of aliens that can be controlled by a director AI like in Left 4 Dead or pre-set AI.
Last but not least, the Special Weapons class that basically deals high amounts of damage. The Officer who carries a shotgun and can find extra ammo for this gun and can throw extra amounts of explosives. The Medic who heals other characters, obviously. The game contains four different classes players can choose from including the Tech, who uses his abilities to open locked doors and trigger certain events. As you play the game, you will most likely get reminded of James Cameron’s Aliens.Īlien Swarm has an offline component but is essentially a four player co-op multiplayer experience. The sound effects as well as the music fit the games mood and blends in extremely well with the action that occurs on screen. The games atmosphere and interesting enemy designs makes up for its dated character models. Valve hired the original developers gave them the Source engine to develop this new version.Īlien Swarm utilizes the Source engine fairly well. Alien Swarm originated as an Unreal Tournament mod in 2004. Before setting up this website, I have been looking for some twin stick shooters to review and since I’m low on cash what better game to play is one thats free! A little known game developing company known as Valve released Alien Swarm on Steam as a free to play game in 2010.
