ALIENS: Hunted - Grotesque Breed [prototype]

Top-down shooter prototype for the Game Boy, made in Chris Maltby's superb GB Studio.

Controls:

• Arrow Keys/WASD - D-Pad (Movement)
• Z/J/Control/F - A Button (Primary Fire (currently unimplemented))
• X/K - B Button (Secondary Fire (currently unimplemented))
• C/L/Enter - Start Button (Scroll currently available weapons)
• V/I - Select Button (Pause/Map Screen (currently unimplemented))

This prototype has been sitting on my hard drive since 2023 (which might be just about readable on the title screen), and is so early that there isn't even any shooting in it yet. Or aliens, for that matter.

Map screen, sound effects and music also conspicuous in their absence. Pretty good title sequence, though 👍

This is a demake of a first-person shooter prototype I made a while back, which you can check out here:

The level layout is identical to the FPS, meaning that from the start, the weapon pick-ups can be found in the facility in front of you (ie upscreen), while the exit is at the far end of the vast chamber behind you (ie downscreen).

Is there a Patreon? Of course there's a Patreon...!

Thanks for looking.
