Release
Release date for the game Outpost (flash);
30th Dec 2011
Plot
Outpost – is based loosely on a very popular early 90s game, Alien Breed.
In the 2D shooting game 'Outpost' you are on a mission to explore the orbital outpost 'Haven' and wipe out all alien activity you can find.
Swarm - To increase your XP and set a high-score you can choose to go into battle within the restricted zones in Haven.
Gameplay
A distress call wakes you and your crew mate from C-Sleep. A suspected radiation leak at the nearby Outpost space station needs investigating. Don't worry, it should just be a quick jump in, jump out job...
Collect weapons, ammo and other items to help you with your mission. Play as yourself 'Lee' with 'Jameson'.
If your out of keys doors can be shot at to open them, crates, old drums, tables and terminals can all be moved and shot at, these will catch on fire when done so, and will eventually explode. Players' weapons are equipped with flashlights and laser targeting, useful for dark areas and when opening fire. Haven's system of network terminals on all levels will allow you to upgrade your weapons, and buy new weapons, health and keys. Your PDA can be accessed through the game, this will give you current objectives and level map.
Swarm - Miller from the corporation will guide you through and will reward you with credits. In swarm weapons do not need credits to unlock.

Walkthrough
Level 1 Loading Bay
You've both been woken from C-sleep as we've detected a distress call from outpost Haven. This is just a quick SAR mission. Its unlikely anyone will still be alive.
Level 2 Offices
The next floor is mainly offices, you should be able to find the occupants master info card, which we need for MFM (Mass Fatality Management).
Level 3 Habitation Block
Night vision is active. Get off this floor as soon as possible.
Level 4 Pathology
Jameson is being held up by Mag-Lock security doors, I need you to find the four Mag-Lock controls and de-active them. I'll explain more when you find them.
Level 5 Mainframe
You're going to have to hack the terminals on this floor just to delay the security systems so you can get in there and hard link me to the system. There will be security turrets, save your ammo, nothing you got will be powerful enough to take them down.
