Title: Alien Breed / 10mm Scifi dungeon
Post by: count_zero99uk on 12 July 2010, 09:48:06 PM
Was on steam earlyer and showed a friend this, he though it would look cracking in like a 10mm dungeon hack style.

Any comments

Blimey I can't believe Team17 are still making games. I remember the original Alien Breed game  :o

Yes yes yes sci-fi corridors, you wouldn't believe the number of people who have asked me that   ;)

I've considered having a go at some Sci-Fi modules, but I doubt they'd be any good!

I remember also for Commodore Amiga... what is happening with video games and films, are we living a revival? Are the new ideas exhausted?

I'd be more interested in an alienbreed/aliens style than in the dungeons pack, but would still end up buying both at some stage!

Loved the original game, could never complete it though! The main problem was there was no level codes so you had to do it all in one go. Before the days of saving your game!

Also, it was just really Space Hulk with a single Imperial Guard rather than a squad of Terminators  ;D

Hi Leon - what about them wouldn't be good? Do you mean the tiles/rooms/sci-fi furniture or just the genre full stop?

Nah, I meant my sculpting skills!  We've got someone interested in having a go at some, so we'll see what happens.  From a sales point of view, I think they'd be excellent.

Hey everyone,
I don't know if this has been already discussed but this thread remembers me there was an "Aliens" boardgame that was published by a company named EDGE when "Aliens: Return" went out.
It contained the whole crew from the Sulacco plus a bunch of aliens and a couple of boards representing the important parts of the movie.

The rules are available for free : HERE (http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/1770/aliens).
You can even play an online flash version of the "reactor room" part : HERE (http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/408816).

The "only work" is to build the reactor room the same size the original and you would get a full game ready to play with a bunch of Pendraken miniatures.

Look at the Giant Worms that are part of the september releases -- they might fit the bill for the worms in screen shots 5 and 6.
