Zortch

Zortch is a single-player first-person shooter set in a science-fiction world with horror and comedy elements. Zortch Maxinum, a professional slacker, is captured by aliens after falling for their fake holiday scheme. She must escape their planet or become a light snack, with help from a mysterious voice.

You fight through combat-heavy levels using nine guns and a kick. Weapons include a grenade launcher, TNT, a tripmine, a plasma pistol, a double-barreled shotgun and a bizarre living lightning gun. You also find power-ups, including a portable medkit and invisibility.

The game has more than 30 enemy types, including giant green brainsucking aliens, spider mines, lizards with rocket launchers, raptors, pudding-like amoeboids pretending to be humanoid guards, and a 20-foot-tall flatworm cyborg bounty hunter.
