This is one of the simplest games I've ever played. You control a red ship, the object is to move around and shoot all of the green ships. Once you do that, more green ships appear, you have to shoot them all as well. This repeats itself over and over again until you lose all your ships when they shoot you. Fun for the first few minutes, may get boring after a while due to its repetitiveness.


Download this for a quick time-killer, don't expect anything spectacular.

Alter is a typical space ship shoter in which you control a little red ship which is flying through the universe.

The only buttons you use are the arrows keys( or w,a,s,d, depending on key set-up) and the right click on the mouse ( or the space bar) .

Th graphics are fairly simple and basic, typical for a retro style shoot them up. It is 2D graphic so is not really that interesting to the eye besides from the bright green enemy ships that will cross the page.

All this game involves is you clicking on the shoot button for hours upon end as there is no virtual goal. It is simply you versus the rest as level after level of ships enter the screen. They come in various patterns they sweep across the screen.

All you have to do with this game is move and shoot. But if you think you are really good try just to dodge them.
You only have 3 lives so this game really does go on and on. As the enemies may change but you still have the same old aim. of surviving for the longest and killing the most enemies.

I personally at the start of this game loved it as it brought me to my childhood in the 80's where we used ot go down to the local arcade and for hours upon end spend our money on other space shooters and competing with my mates to see who could get the highest score.

But if you have time to spare during the day ; before work,school, lunchtimes or simple as a stress reliever this game is right up your street and a recommended download. It is a fun way to kill some time and hopefully some evil enemies.

The best way to play this game is with a few friends either online, mates around your house or set-up a league in which you and your mates play against each other to see who can get the highest score.

The download is very quick and simple so make sthis game an even better download. So to sum up, i would definitely download this game as it brings great fun and excitement and if like me your are from the 80's it will bring you straight back to your childhood.
