Abduction Bit
About
Urban myths about Abduction Bit:
Abduction Bit was originally released in 1982 but considerated too realistic (or inconvenient) for publishing it like an arcade game and so to bring it to the masses, this game reveals the truth about alien abduction.
Fortunately the SEEP team have found a prototype suite of arcade versions and are working on it.
Story:
Two aliens must catch many humans for some experiments in four stages: construction, hotel, military base and laboratory.
To catch the humans the aliens use a sci-fi gun that paralyses the target for a number of seconds, during which time they destroy their memory so they cannot remember the incident. Once the humans are caught they are shaved and stripped of their clothes
to be teleported to the UFO.
Gameplay:
Abduction Bit is a retro style game inspired by 80s arcade games like Bubble Bobble and Mario Bros, where players take control of an alien that must abduct the humans.
To complete a stage the players must capture all the humans without touching them and must avoid dangerous traps.
The player can jump on the platform and shoot - easy gameplay with high-level difficulty.
Level Packs system:
In Abduction Bit the player can select various level packs through the main menu. We'll release more packs in the future like FREE DLC.

They Play so likeable that it seems out from the early Eighties. We Are the evil aliens who try to kidnap people evidently for their dirty experiments. Mechanical from a fixed screen platform with a gun to immobilize the enemies that will then be touched. Facilitates Short but still pleasant matches.
Definitely worth what it costs and really oozes so much sympathy!

A Really good game, a perfect reproduction of the years 80 games like Popeye, Bubble Bobble and company Bella. However, the modern concept based on aliens and abduction make the basic idea fresh and fun.
Notable also the ability to choose multiple packages of levels (including some released in the form of free DLC!), of varying difficulty, but always focused on levels quite altini. Among Other things there is also a package called 16 bit that completely changes the graphics of the game, enriching it with details and with irresistible chiptune music.
In Short, a production that reproposes the playability of the beginnings of the videogame history, inevitable for the most nostalgic, but it can also be a pleasant diversion for the most curious newcomers.

In the role of an alien we will have to kidnap as many humans as possible by extraction in ever increasing levels of difficulty, between predefined patterns of movement to memorize, different types of "enemies", alarms etc....... The unfortunate humans are first hit with a radius that immobilizes them, and in the next few seconds that you have available must be touched and shipped to the ship.
In The higher levels you have to proceed patiently, some jumps are adjusted to the millimeter and overall the difficulty is absolutely calibrated to that of the titles of those years, the first years 80 in particular. This is the main reason why I recommend the game to those who have a little familiarity with games of this genre, the nostalgia component plays an important part (at least in my case) but can be appreciated by younger players in search of a fair challenge , especially in advanced levels. The price really reduced, the presence of achievements and the cards are another point in his favor, in short I recommend it absolutely, and if you are lovers of retro gaming the title is necessarily to add to your library:)
Ps: I just completetato the easy pack, the game has style!!! It is difficult nowadays to relive the sensations and feeling of now more than 30 years ago, and in this point of view the game is perfect both graphically and as sound compartment.
So Congratulations to the developers, they did a great job:)
