Alien Breed Trilogy

Insectoid creatures are attacking your spaceship. Survive, explore, escape... you know the drill.

Alien Breed Trilogy is a 3D remake/sequel to the Alien Breed series of 2D top-down shooters from the early 1990s. The gameplay combines run'n'gun action with adventure elements. The trilogy follows the story of trigger-happy engineer Conrad through three separate games: Impact, Assault and Descent. Besides the solo campaign, each game features online co-op limited to a handful of specific maps.

Solutions & Issues

Baseline (Widescreen) Solution & Issues

Resolution can be changed at any time from the Help & Options, Display menu.
For each game, use GeneralAdmission's FOV tool to correct the default Vert- screen change.

Suggested values for Hor+ gameplay: if AR 4:3 = FOV 90 then...
AR 16:10 = FOV 100
AR 15:9 = FOV 103
AR 16:9 = FOV 106

Camera viewpoint (perspective) is slightly altered compared to 4:3. FMV backdrops are ~2:1 designs that get cropped in lower ARs (pillarboxed in multi-mon). FMV text balloons stretch.

Ultra/Super-Wide (21:9/32:9) Specific Solution & Issues

Eyefinity / Surround Specific Solution & Issues

Same solution. The FOV tools affect gameplay, real-time rendered and pre-rendered cut-scenes.
