Alien Abduction 2

Alien Abduction 2 was one of those games you'd find on a Flash portal in the late 2000s. It didn't have a big studio behind it, but it was a straightforward sequel that built on the simple premise of its predecessor. You were just there to cause some chaos from the sky.

You control a flying saucer from a top-down perspective, hovering over a suburban landscape. Your goal is to abduct people, animals, and objects by beaming them up, all while fending off military forces. The moment-to-moment play involves careful movement to line up your tractor beam, switching between weapons to handle different threats, and constantly dodging incoming fire from soldiers and vehicles. The pacing is relentless; the difficulty comes from the sheer number of units the military throws at you as your notoriety grows. It feels like a hectic scramble where you're always one misstep away from being shot down.
