It's actually quite good too, if a bit mindless.

The game is kind of fun. But, the enemies don't really attack you and I am not sure why these seemingly innocent kids are enemies anyway.

That's a great game! I love the way you get all sorts of special attacks which makes for a deep fighting game mechanic. I like beating up on all the kid stereotypes too ie. dorks, boy scouts, goth punks, and wannabe gangstas.

btw: the enemies do fight back. It gets quite difficult too, in later levels. Of course these "enemies" are just trying to defend themselves from a psychotic bully which is hella funny.

Obviously you haven't reached the ninja kids yet...

Quite a fun game.

This game rocks. Period. I think beating the kid with the headgear is now in my top-ten gaming moments, along with knocking the boy scout troop into oncoming traffic. Awesome.

No, I need to to play it more to see the challenge ratchet up. For what I played, I thought it was pretty good. I wonder if this is their next flash game to bring to consoles or simply a diversion?

Nope, not behemoth's next game. This is Behemoth's next game:

On the bright side it looks like it will probably implement an even more advanced fighting engine, will run smoother, and have four player action. On the downside... um, no beating up children?:roll:

Man I was hoping their next game would be a beat em up, lucky me. Though it's not a huge suprise, Tom Fulp also had a hand in making Domo-Kun Angry Smashfest, which was another enjoyable flash beat em up. But he's made plenty of other types of games too...

So, this time the game doesn't suck?!?

Alien Hominid itself was made in flash.

Hehe....cool game. The enemies really don't fight back, however. I like how smooth the controls were, pretty impressive for a flash game.
