It bled from outer space.

<span class="bold">Alien Rampage</span>, a spectacularly gory classic sidescroller, is available now, DRM-free on GOG.com

First released in 1996, Alien Rampage was a sidescroller brought into a 3D renaissance. But it still managed to stand out for its smooth and responsive gameplay, as well as technical achievements boasting – the quite marvelous – 5-level multi-parallax scrolling backgrounds!

Alien Rampage stands is gore, solid puzzles, oddball weaponry, and tons of quirky little things – coming together to produce something memorable, and far more than the sum of its parts.

Smannesman: I thought this was Alien Carnage/Halloween Harry for a second.
I don't really remember this one, but it sounds and looks very generic.
I might pick it up some day.
Ha! I thought it was a port of Alien Storm from the Megadrive/Genesis

Oh, very nice release, GOG!
It's not only old but also cool side-scrolling shooter. I like the weapon's ammo variations. Smart checkpoint & enemy respawn system is well balanced.
My recommendation to all that haven't played it.

LGR video on the game. ;)

Edit: After rewatching that video I got the urge to get Halloween Harry. Luckily, 3DRealms legacy site is still up, so I ended up downloading all their freeware stuff; just in case.

Big props to whoever put the rubber mask in the background.

So does this run through dosbox? Any issues?

Interesting, Either I've never heard of this game before or it must have been lost to me in the mists of time.

Mm.. I don't remember this, I'll check that video by LGR.

I played this from a Demo CD on 1998, it was just a demo version... NOW I WILL FINALLY PLAY IT ALL!!!
The parallax backgrounds, the gore, the secrets... it's an awesome game :)

Good, another one to strike off my eBay watchlist, just keep 'em coming, GOG.
