Play Butt-Ugly Martians : B.K.M. Battles Online

Butt-Ugly Martians: B.K.M. Battles came out on Game Boy Advance in 2002, developed by Vicarious Visions. It was one of those licensed platformers that felt right at home on the GBA, a system packed with cartoon tie-ins and colorful action games. The game draws from the short-lived animated series, putting you in control of the show's alien heroes as they battle to save Earth from invasion.

You pick one of three Martians, each with a unique weapon, and run through levels shooting enemies, collecting keys, and hunting for power-ups. The goal is straightforward: clear each stage, beat the boss, and move on. The action is fast and a little messy, with enemies swarming from all sides and platforming that keeps you on your toes. It’s not an easy game; some sections demand quick reflexes and careful aim. Playing it feels like a chaotic, slightly janky arcade rush, especially when you’re fending off Stoat Muldoon’s taunts between stages.
