Alien Shooter

Play Alien Shooter free online. Aliens swoop into formation, then dive-bomb your ship. Shoot them down stage by stage.

A swooping space shooter. Squadrons of aliens loop in on graceful flight paths and settle into a shimmering formation — then peel off one or two at a time to dive at your ship, firing as they come. Picking off divers mid-swoop is worth double. Clear every alien to reach the next, more aggressive stage.

How to play Alien Shooter

Objective: Clear as many stages as you can.

  1. Aliens fly in along curved paths before joining the formation.
  2. From the formation they dive towards you and fire. A diver that reaches the bottom returns to its place.
  3. Getting hit by a shot or a diving alien costs a life.
  4. You can have two shots in the air at once.

Scoring

Green 50, gold 80, pink 150 — double while diving. 500 for each stage cleared.

Difficulty levels

Easy: rare dives and an extra life. Hard: frequent dives.
