Another one of my best games. This is another classic styled arcade game, which is original while also being based on traditional arcade gameplay mechanics. The ship movement and firing is the same as my “Replicator” game – in fact, this is kind of a sequel to “Replicator”. The player clears the screen of the bugs then destroys the queen bugs that control the hive. In later levels, enemys swoop onto the screen in scripted attack waves, they adding a variety to the game play. This type of gameplay is compelling and addictive.

Hive has been rethemed by Cerebral Fix, and renamed “Agent Orange 1″. They have given it a storyline and new styled graphics. The gameplay remains essentially the same. It looks good, but I must admit that I still prefer my original classic style graphics. They’re more abstract, which I like.
