Help me find this very unusual game

Post by Captain »

Alright, here's another one.

The game starts with a huge ship stuck in a canyon or crack on a planet.
The player is a surviving crew member that goes through the ship on foot with a gun.
One of the weapons is a mini black hole.
The ship is infested with aliens.
Organic bosses have hearts next to their life meeters and mechanical ones have engines.
The final boss is some demonic alien i think.

Help is appreciated.

Sounds somewhat like Baraduke.

Is it an arcade or console game?

Bingo! Although you could call it "Time Soldiers Out of Time And Soldiers"

The one and only. OP's description of it is perfect, although I didn't remember the detail about hearts or engines.

I've just been playing this on SNK Classics 0 for PSP. Found it quite enjoyable.

the ending ruined my life, though. all of it. I carry a heavy guilt about the coverup to this very day.

Better than Dodonpachi.

because the whole planet is in a conspiracy, not just one lunatic.

Wish it was longer though.

I have to give these space dudes credit, they search every inch of the ship for survivors before blowing it. Most people would've taken one look at the infested animated corpses and floors covered in flesh and run screaming for an orbital strike.
