Crimsonland - one of the best kept secrets on the web

[[xeno]Julios]

Probably the most entertaining single player game I've ever played.

not free, but that shouldn't stop you

finish the quests first, in both regular and hardcore - this will unlock all the weapons and bonus items, which will allow you to do well in the main gametype: Survival.

My best score so far is in the 12 million range.

Some screenies

This game has been around for years, pretty fun.

yea i played it when it was undergoing testing. Recently started it up again, and managed to break the million mark.

aye, when it was still a free game it rocked. then with the 'retail' version they changed the music and some other things that made it too bland for meh

its like that old game SmashTV but different

topdown view and an unlimited number of baddies coming right at you. survive.

ion cannon + fastshot + fast reload = win!

Ah, I remember that game. Good times, but it got boring pretty quick. I'll have to give it another go some time.

i used to enjoy the survivor mode, but not enough to pay for or even warez it.

jules, have you played soldat? it's a side scrolling real time game, it's got multiplayer capabilities too:

I find Alien Shooter to be more fun, and graphically more pleasing.
Granted, it's quite short, but the action's a lot more varied than Crimsonland, and it's got Survivor mode too.

I remember Soldat, too! Another gold game.
