I had never heard of Alien Soldier on the SEGA Genesis. There is a reason.
In North America, it was locked to the SEGA Channel. That was an online service in an era when most people did not even have dial-up. If you did not subscribe, the game effectively did not exist.
Japan and Europe got physical cartridges. North America did not.
I finally bought a legal copy on Steam in 2016. Within minutes, it felt familiar. The controls, the pacing, the combat rhythm. It plays almost exactly like Gunstar Heroes.
That is because both were made by Treasure. This is what they did best on the Genesis.
The difference is difficulty. Alien Soldier is far harsher. Even on easy, it is punishing. It also clearly wants more buttons while pretending the 3-button controller is enough.
Still, it is a strong game. The title is painfully generic. The design is not. If you like Gunstar Heroes and want something meaner, this is worth your time. -

I have too many projects.
I wonder if I could contract someone to migrate my WordPress to ClassicPress.
I wonder if I could contract someone to write a javascript that halts the loading of an html page and its other javascripts, presents a popup to gain consent to use webaudio, then allows the other javascripts to resume, to fix my webaudio asmjs apps I no longer have the source for.

@lritter beware of fixed points for consciousness contraction in metric spaces.
