The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

IIRC there's a Flash version animation and an Amiga software (using an emulator in Windows) 'playable' version about.

Think I have both somewhere, hang on, I'll have a look.....

Edit: the Flash version I have also can be 'played' using cursor keys and such. :)

Hmm, couldn't quite figure out the controls of either, but hopefully someone will chime in here soon and explain what they are. :wink:

Here's both of them:

I have the version that you can actually load on to a Gridcase.

Depending on what model you have, you may need a 720k floppy disk.


This version is not super interactive, but maybe Herr Stomper can help us out at some point

with a better one.....

Here's a pict of mine:

Just for searching/archive purposes, I thought I'd mention that my Amiga version (which can be played on a PC using WinUAE) was updated twice this year, and the latest (and probably last) version is now v1.5. I made quite a few improvements (including a few corrections and a settings menu).

Info is available HERE. You can see a video of the first release from my YouTube link below, or from my site.


Noble: It's nice to see one that runs on a real Grid :)
