Alien Hominid

Originally a wildly popular Flash game on the NewGrounds website (with art by SYNJ Industries, programming by NewGrounds founder Tom Fulp and music by LHM), the action-blaster with the manic yellow monster makes its way into the console realm. Still in blistering hand-drawn 2D, the next-gen version features vastly improved graphics and animation, a new soundtrack, new vehicles to take command of and even more frantic gameplay elements in this side-scrolling homage to greats like Contra and Metal Slug.
