Microsoft announced that Alien Hominid HD, a shoot-em-up arcade game for up to 4 people, ported by The Behemoth with extra features not in the console (PS2, GameCube, Xbox) versions now for Xbox Live Arcade, will arrive today. The game will be available for download worldwide on Xbox Live Arcade for Xbox 360 after 8AM GMT (1AM PST), at a price of 800 Microsoft Points (that’s $10 / €9.60 / £6.80).

They’ve got your spaceship, so blow up anything in your path to get it back. Completely hand-drawn high-definition graphics coupled with old-school game play results in ultimate mayhem. This addictive, side-scrolling shooter features cute, quirky humor and adjustable cartoon gore.

Alien Hominid HD features jump-in-anytime multiplayer action, immersive environments, award-winning bosses, and over 30 fashionable hats. This 2-D console experience comes jam-packed with seven mini-games, including several four-player party games. All You Can Eat, Neutron Ball, and PDA Games will keep the party going for hours on end.

Key features are:
* Full-blown console title: Alien Hominid is the first full-size console title on Xbox Live Arcade.
* New and improved: All 16 levels and seven mini-games are included in this version, in addition to 720p HD support and 150+ brand new PDA mini-game levels.
* Multiplayer support: Two players locally in the main game, and up to four players offline or on Xbox Live in mini-games.
* Per-player difficulty: Difficulty settings can be adjusted on a per-controller basis.
