## About Alien Hominid Invasion

The Behemoth's 2023 action release drops players into an alien invasion of Earth as part of a Mothership crew, blasting through endless enemy waves with an arsenal of weapons and mutations. The core loop combines bullet-hell shooter mechanics with roguelite progression systems, allowing players to unlock and customize their alien's loadout across runs. Online co-op supports up to four players working together against increasingly difficult hordes, with global leaderboards tracking performance across sessions. Reviewers highlight the high-octane bullet-hell combat and satisfying projectile density, while players note that the deep weapon customization and challenging difficulty encourage repeated attempts. The game features short-burst sessions at a medium overall length and is marked as playable on Steam Deck, currently priced at $19.99 with an 87% positive rating from over 1000 Steam reviews.
