Timothy Vs The Aliens is a 50's looking, black and white gangster vs aliens game set in an open world. Aping the old-school gangster flicks most of us grew up watching, players will platform and shoot their way though town while using a Matrix-esque ability to bend time.
The story goes that Timothy was abducted by aliens and given a powerful device that lets him warp time. The device is disguised as a pack of cards, which fits in well with his gangster aesthetic. The aliens also give him a warning, that evil aliens are going to invade Earth, and he should get ready. Instead of getting ready, he uses the interstellar device to rise through the criminal ranks, becoming a real "somebody", right up until the aliens he forgot about invade the Earth. Whoops.
You'll have access to all the standard period-specific guns you would expect, with pistols, machine guns, shotguns and revolvers making up the bulk of your arsenal, and when used in conjunction with your Matrix powers, you are a pretty good one-man alien repulsion brigade. You also have a dash move to get you out of trouble when things get hairy, and you can gain access to cars in order to tool around the city.
Available tomorrow, Timothy Vs The Aliens will release for Steam and PS4.
