The briefing

About this game

Alien Soldier is a side-scrolling action game starring Epsilon-Eagle, the former leader of the Scarlet mutant group. After the mutants are led into terrorism by Xi-Tiger, Epsilon-Eagle becomes the target of their attacks.

At the beginning of the game, players choose four of six weapons, each with different advantages and disadvantages against certain enemies. Epsilon-Eagle can also teleport across the screen and, when at full health, transform into a powerful phoenix.

The game includes 25 levels made up of short side-scrolling sequences and boss encounters. Bosses make up much of the experience, with each featuring distinct patterns and weaknesses, while the side-scrolling sections provide opportunities to collect ammunition.
