Alien Breed 3d 2: The Killing Grounds - Map and 100% playthrough

[JemyM]

I always was curious about Alien Breed 3d 2: The Killing Grounds. When I searched for playthroughs on youtube I couldn't find more than low resolution or non-english playthroughs. So a month ago I decided to make my own contribution by creating full maps for the whole game and record my own playthrough, both of which I uploaded last week. So if you were ever curious about this game but not able to beat it or just want to watch someone else explain the game, this is for you.

You can find the maps here;

Starting with the shotgun and having to find the blaster always felt the wrong way around to me.

I know, I haven't been online for awhile. You have to greet Lorraine from me.

Yeah, it's weird. But there are a few situations where it is a better weapon. It's high firerate in long corridors or in very cramped spaces makes it superior over the shotgun in those situations. The shotgun is best used when you have singular fast moving targets on medium distance.

... and there is a place in Level H where I outright exploit with the help of the blaster...

Grab him quick, we could do with a playtester if we're going to do any new levels for the mod

I did see this while googling around for the game. I have a question that you guys might be able to answer if you been digging around in the files. Do you know what the "Mantis" and the "snake" files are under vectobj? Are those used in the game?

[Karlos]

Isn't mantis the end boss?

Snake I don't think is used.

Of course they are. After all, real hardware capable of running full detail/high resolution in this game does not exist. Biggest fake game in Amiga history.

I speak about youtube low resolution. The [ Show youtube player ] was uploaded in 360p which is a shame. It wasn't even possible to read the text and it was difficult to see what was happening on screen.

Fair enough. Nevertheless, "difficult to see what was happening on screen" sounds like an accurate description of the actual game to me :P

Nice work!

Are there any working cheats for this game? The ones I’ve found online seem to mention entering codes into an Intex computer but that’s the top-down Alien Breed games isn’t it?

[trixster]

The whdload version allows you infinite health and ammo, and level skip at the press of a key

[vroom6sri]

Thanks, Trixster. I should have said I’m using Karlos and Abu The Monkeys excellent WIP version as (thanks to their amazing work) it’s the only version that’s playable on a 56Mhz 030.

Ahem, don't forget the skipper, pipper. We wouldn't be working on it at all if it weren't for his hard work.
