This Cute Little Yellow Alien Has Come A Long Way

This game started out on newgrounds.com as a popular flash game with a cute yellow alien being shot down and crash landing right into the FBI headquarters. He's gotta shoot his way through enemies to get his ship back. Weapon of choice is an upgradable lazer gun, but you can also slice enemies in half at close range, ride on their backs and bite their heads off, carry or throw themk, even burrow in the ground for a suprise attack. You can also drive many vehicles now and you get to fly the ufo at vertain points in the game where it is presented in a birds eye view. Do not confuse this game with it's flash counterpart...everything has been completely redone. Not one single thing has been recycled. New 2 player mode and 1-4 player mini PDA games will keep you busy for hours. You can even make your own PDA levels. In the world of 3D gaming, this release is a breath of fresh air: all 2D hand drawn stylized animation that looks great!

This is my favorite Gamecube game of all time. It's for both old skool and new skool gamers! It's side scrolling action throughout the whole game.

The sounds and music are so cool and go perfectly with the boss battles and levels. There are many cool things to do in it. Theres 2 player mode, mini games, huge challenging bosses, LOTS of action

~(I have beaten the game and I honestly don't think I have seen a part in it that didn't have action)

It's a bit bloody like if you slice a person they look like ham =) it's funny watching that happen. There are also many things you can do in it such as roll, backflip, jump, jump ON the people, bite their heads off, shoot them, slice them, dig underground, is that it?

And the powerups, WOW! All the gun powerups do completely different things. They can freeze, burn, melt, dissolve, blow up, shoot tons of fast tiny bullets, and they are all VERY bright and colorful and fun to watch.

Anyone who likes both old games and the newer ones should get this game!

That little yellow guy rocks

Fred's Review:

8.5/10 stars

Sidescrolling short sci-fi shooter game rocks the house. You can probably beat this game in an hour and thirty minutes but I play it over and over on the different difficulties. Ever wonder how in shooter games people take like 10 bullet shots and live? Well in this game, you take one shot and your dead(unless you have a shield)
The makers seem to have something against the FBI to have them in here. 16 levels in all with mini-games for multiplayer or single player. Also includes PDA levels with a PDA level editor. Boss fights can be tough and challenging if you don't know what to do but they're not like games where you do it over and over trying to find a weakness. Some bosses are really simple because they tell you what to do. For example, one boss has a note on his body that says "DO NOT DAMAGE HEAD." 3 worlds that include city,Russia, and Area 51 will have you wanting for more everytime you play it. When I first got it, I couldn't put my hands down.

This game's gonna be great!

I simply cannot wait to get this game Gamespot has given it a 84%, while that might not be excelent, it's still very good.
Let's start with the story. You start as a little green alien who's UFO has crashed..........right on the doorstep of the FBI. Then you must blast through a bunch of 2D Old School levels battling many insane baddies. You can have like 8 or 6 different guns, can burry underground, can roll to dodge enemy fire, can jump on someone and either bite his head off or throw him in many different directions, and can drive cars, UFOs, etc.
If that's not enough, you can also team up with a friend and play CO-OP mode. Or you can team up with 4 players and play mini games.
I'm telling ya, this game is gonna be sweet.

10/10 Game!

That yellow alien might be cute but he is also bloody violent, this game is one of the best i have played in ages, altough people have told me that the graphics are 'childish' who cares? it's not the graphics that matter:/
the game has great music aswel, and everything about it is great really, it's very hard but what's the point in having a game that is too easy?
overall this game gets what it deserves 5 stars!

Best Game Ever(ish)

I was always a huge fan of the online game, so, I couldn't wait until the console version came out, (delayed 6 times where I pre ordered it). When I finally got it, I was amazed!
PROS
non stop action
tons of mini/final bosses
co op mode
mini games
animation
CONS
short (3 levels w/ about 5/6 stages in each)
level editor is for one of the mini games, not the actual alien homind

I have more fun playing this than I do Halo 2 (which is also really fun). A must buy.

fun for new gamers and old schoolers alike

for 30 dollars i don't think you'll find a more entertaining game this holiday season. It's multiplayer friendly and a blast to play. Games have taken the step into 3D which has made gaming complex and not accessible without reading a manual. In Alien Hominid, anyone can pick up a controller and play for hours. The game is refreshing and slick and is not held down by the tethers of the 3D world. After playing hours upon hours of RPG's I was in the mood to shoot the hell out of everything, slice people's bodies in half, and bite their heads off. Alien Hominid delivered.

Don't hesistate and buy the game already, you won't regret it I promise.

OMG - this game annihilates...you have no idea

This game is the absolute heat. If you grew up on the real ish like Contra and whatnot, you'll pee your pants when you fire up this one. I give it 10/10.

Vaguely fun, but its amateur beginnings show through

There's some interesting gameplay elements in there, as well as some genuinely funny humor (e.g. if you turn the gore off, enemies spew forth flowers instead blood), but the gameplay gets repetitive awfully quickly, and the choppy animations don't help the situation. Overall, despite the budget price, I would steer clear of this title and try instead the richer and far more polished Contra or Metal Slug series. I'm trading it in and doing just that.

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love alien hominid!! It's a really fun game about an alien joyriding over the Earth until an FBI agent shoots him down! Then you have to kill the FBI agents in different gory ways such as: Blasting them , biting their heads off, dragging them underground, and you can upgrade your blaster for certain amount of shots of things like acid, flame, ice, lasersand other cool things. But for those who hate gore, you van switch it of and the agents die in a cloud of flowers and sparkles and all sorts of sugary , girly, kindess. The only bad thing is that the space battles are WAY to easy. One of my favorite parts is when your ship only has a tractor beam, and you catch fireballs in it and drop them on a tank. BUT their is also a woodchipper and FBI agents, so you can pick them up in the tractor beam and " [AAAHHH].... " [CHHHHHHEEEEEOOOOOOWWWW]!!!!!!! SPLAT! Their gone in the woodchipper in a spray of blood! What also makes alien hominid a fun game is that it's a sidescrolling game, so you'll never get lost. AN EXCELLENT GAME TO PLAY ALONE OR TO DO WITH A FRIEND!!!! GO AND BUY IT RIGHT NOW OR ELSE ALIEN HOMINID WILL GET YOU!!!!!!!!!!
