Alien Invasyndrome

Alien Invasyndrome puts players on the exploration ship Atlas in a fast-paced, arcade-inspired sci-fi shooter with narrative choices and adult themes. You play as a crew member exploring planets, rescuing stranded scientists, and confronting parasitic aliens that can mimic or possess shipmates; story adventures and dialogue choices develop relationships with the ship's crew and unlock mature cutscenes. Fans of cooperative play and tactical, room-by-room combat will appreciate the mix of rescue objectives, weapon pickups and boss encounters. Downloaders should expect a blend of action, strategy and a provocative narrative delivered in compact levels with cooperative options.

Version Information

Alien Invasyndrome's recent changelog notes the Charge Attack is unavailable at game start and can be acquired later by accessing the nest.

Added a Skill Tree menu for learning and upgrading skills, though a placeholder message may incorrectly appear if you try to relearn the same skill (WIP).

New events include a post-boss encounter scene that includes an adult animation, and the ability to release hypnotized NPCs via the command list (now mapped to the C key).

The command list was moved from the B key to the C key to streamline controls and provide access to new functions while someone is hypnotized.
