Mike writes, "Alien Spidy tells the story of an adorable little spider from another planet who crash lands onto Earth's surface and navigates a series of levels in three main zones; Forest, Pond, and Crystal Cave, in order to rescue his friend. That's about the extent of the story, and the main focus is on gameplay achievements. One thing that really struck me then and now about Alien Spidy is its fantastic presentation. It's colorful, pretty, and is full of bright power-ups and animations that evoke the glory days of arcades. It also has a bouncy soundtrack that I'm sure has been designed to provide a soothing effect preventing me from throwing my monitor out the window."
