Alien Blaster is an vertical shoot'em up where you have to kill all the aliens. The game work perfectly with the GP2x at 200MHz with accelerated memory but you have to use another sofware to do overclock or change the memory config (CPU/LCD-Tweaker or gmenu2x).

Features:

• many aliens to blast
• a big bad boss
• different weapons
• special items
• cooperative mode (2 players playing with second player on USB keyboard).
• arcade mode with highscore

Installation

1. Copy the contents of the "gp2x" folder anywhere you want. Copy the "files" folder contents into the same location that you put the gpe/exe's (AlienBlaster.gpe et AlienBlaster.bin). For thosewho use GMenu2X, you can copy the "gmenu2x" folder to have a shorcut and icon setup with an clock of 220 Mhz.
2. Launch the game from the file "AlienBlaster.gpe"
