Armorines: Project S.W.A.R.M. is a futuristic first-person shooter game for the Nintendo 64, PlayStation and Game Boy Color featuring a top-down perspective released in 1999. It is based on the Armorines comic book from Valiant Comics, which was bought by Acclaim Entertainment.

Gameplay

The game has two characters to choose from: Tony Lewis and Myra Lane. Each has a different starting weapon. Tony uses a slower, but stronger gun than Myra. Myra uses a faster machine gun-like weapon, which causes less damage. Additional weapons can be picked up throughout the game. Armorines can be played alone or with other players. The multi-player version can accommodate up to 4 players. It is compatible with Nintendo's Rumble Pak.

Plot

A group of morines fitted with advanced futuristic suits of armour protect Earth from an invasion of extraterrestrial, spider-like beings. The morines protect the Earth by killing the spiders with their weapons.
