I loved Alien Swarm, although it's like just one episode from a big game. It's disheartening it's still like that. This game has a potential, especially for coop gaming. Just no content to flesh it out.
I remember playing the shit out of Alien Swarm back when it came out over a decade ago. It showed a ton of promise. It's a shame they haven't really fleshed it out since then.
Alien Shooter and Zombie Shooter series are direct inspirations to this Valve's experiment. Idk if they are good on your platform or if they are meant to play together with others, but I liked some of these older entries playing solo. Maybe you'd like them too.
There was Reaction Drop which added more content and the Workshop for user made stuff, but even then the extra time it'll buy you is limited.
