In this source mod, you can ''eat'' your enemies, amongst other stuff. Though it did not rely on it, the Bombay72 wad works perfectly with this mechanic and is actually recommended by the author. However, due to it being DOS based, it was not available in a modern source port. In 2008, Martin Howe a similar mechanic, but uses a ZDoom source mod. Unfortunately this zip is not available anymore and Martin doesn't have a copy.

) may also be useful in other mods as it is more-or-less generic and was not written with only this class in mind. On that note, please can anyone interested in this play the heck out of it in multiplayer, as DM and CoOp are something I never do and wouldn't know where to start.

The graphics are 24-bit PNG, so the class can be used in Heretic and HeXen
if required; however, it is primarily intended for Doom and Doom II.
The class Alien is a classic Alien and will attack you and anything that
hurts it. The class AlienOfAggression grows from a chestburster in a few
seconds, hisses at you, then runs off and attacks your enemies.
This looks really good in a resurrection spell; after using the Heal state
to resurrect a dead monster, the healing actor can immediately kill the
resurrectee with gib death and spawn an alien at the same place; it looks
in-game as if the resurrectee has been chestbursted!
This class is intended as a component for use in larger works, but you can
summon one at the GZDoom console to try it in-game.

-hexen .......... Force the use of the HEXEN palette if the WAD does not contain one.
-strife ......... Force the use of the STRIFE palette if the WAD does not contain one.
