Alien Gunner

Alien Gunner is an engaging mix of some of the best space shooters, such as Asteroids, Invaders, and Galaxian. Developed by Clickteam, this entertaining arcade game lets players score as high as they can by shooting enemies, asteroids, and various other obstacles that come in 'waves'. The latest version, 1.5, offers the most up-to-date experience, and there are two main program file names to choose from: AlienGunner15.exe, and AlienGunner15_Windowed.exe.

This game is compatible with multiple operating systems, including Windows XP, XP Professional, 7, 8, 10, and 11, ensuring a wide range of player accessibility. Within the category of Games and the subcategory of Arcade, Alien Gunner stands out for its engaging and fast-paced gameplay.

Players can pick up various items throughout the game to enhance their abilities. They control a small green ship that shoots down alien entities and navigates through asteroids. At the start of each new game, players can choose from different types of guns: an average green laser, a fireball/spreader, or a thin concentrated beam. Each weapon can be upgraded by catching falling power-ups. However, a word of caution: if a power-up for a different gun is picked up, all previously gained upgrades will be lost, and the weapon will change accordingly.

Alien Gunner allows players to send their scores up to the TGP online scoreboard, adding a competitive edge to the experience. Previous versions of the game are also available, but version 1.5 is highly recommended for the latest improvements and features.
