Hi guys,

I'm a long time fan of the Alien Breed series - in particular I played A LOT of Alien Breed SE'92 as a kid with my Dad back in the early-mid 90's. I also played the original, AB2 & Tower Assault as well, but for some reason, SE'92 was always the one that stuck in my heart the most :)

Programming eventually became a part time hobby of mine, and I was part of a large online community that programmed in Z80 assembly for the Texas Instruments graphing calculators. Over the years, I made several attempts at porting Alien Breed to these calculators. The earlier versions were all very basic and not very accurate, but they progressively got a little better in the early 2000's.

Recently I decided to try again, and came up with a version is much more reminiscent of your original Amiga versions. If you're interested in having a laugh, you can watch a YouTube video below showing my attempts over the years, culminating with my most recent version. If you want to skip the older versions to see the latest, skip to about 2:35 in the video :)

Thanks for all the fun Alien Breed times, and I'm happy to say I've spent plenty of time on the latest version on my iPhone :)

Cheers

Oh so you're the guy that made Alien Breed for the TIs! I remember finding your Alien Breed 4 for the TI-86 on ticalc.org long ago and being very impressed. Thanks for all the school afternoons I wasted playing games instead of paying attention to class. ;)

feeling like an ignorant moron now

This is quite amazing.
