Under the radar: Alien Breed
I forgot to mention how incredibly positive the response has been since we 'leaked' news of an impending Alien Breed return for 2009. We did so with minimal detail (for a variety of reasons) and I'm still terribly excited about it - its been 17yrs since we did the original. I even had a mail from Allister Brimble (a very old friend, who I was first in touch with back in 1988) who said he'd been besieged with requests to re-do the original music with today's tech. The new Alien Breed will hopefully surprise a few people since it's got very high production values and yet retains a lot of what made the original tick, in terms of dark atmosphere and tense gameplay, it's a very modern, mainstream game that shouldn't alienate our original players (see what I did there...)

Woohoo! Go Spadge!
Alien Breed return's got me all a-quiver.
Y'know, I've never actually played the original. Here's to hoping it'll be just as good for us who aren't under the influence of nostalga!
Best game to ever exist. Probably. :)
Will have to buy a 360 next year though, which is a bit of a pain in the arse. Speaking of which, have you considered releasing it on Steam for the PC?
I secretly pray that it is along the lines of the original games or even tower assault style but not the Alien Breed 3D games... but I will definitely buy it no matter what the style.
Good lord yes, this will be great! Of course Allister has to do the music no debate :)
