Ben 10 Alien Onslaught

Gameplay and controls are executed using the Nintendo DS hardware. The directional pad moves Ben Tennyson left, right, up, and down across the 2D plane. The A button performs a jump. The B button executes a standard attack, which varies depending on the current alien form. The X button activates the Omnitrix, allowing the player to cycle through the available alien forms: Humungousaur, Swampfire, Jetray, Big Chill, and Spidermonkey. The Y button confirms the selection of a highlighted alien form. The L button is used to switch between the selected alien and Ben’s human form. The R button activates a special ability unique to the current alien, such as a ranged energy blast or a defensive shield. The touch screen displays a map of the current level and allows the player to tap on specific locations to view mission objectives. The start button pauses the game and opens the menu, where the player can review collected items or adjust sound settings. The select button toggles the display of the health and energy meters on the top screen. The player must manage the transformation energy meter, which depletes continuously while in alien form and recharges slowly in human form. Defeating enemies drops health pickups and energy orbs. The game ends when the health bar is fully depleted, requiring the player to restart from the last checkpoint.
