Virus Alert 3D
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
Overview:
Virus Alert 3D is a quirky third‑person action game starring “Weird Al” Yankovic, inspired by his song “Virus Alert” from the album Straight Outta Lynwood. You play as Al, hired at “Company‑Tech Co., Ltd., LCC” to track down and delete mischievous computer viruses invading office networks.
Gameplay & Setting:
-
Journey through vivid, mid‑2000s 3D environments within office buildings and network hardware
-
Arm yourself with “antiviral CDs” to blast viruses in increasingly hectic waves.
Development & History:
-
Developed and published by Left Brain Games, with David C. Lovelace leading animation (who also animated the original music video).
-
Official release date: May 5, 2007 for Windows
Unofficial release date: June 13, 2025 for macOS (exported by me!)
Why This Upload is Special:
-
This archive preserves a piece of niche gaming history—one of the rare commercial tie‑in games starring a prominent parody musician
-
The demo brings fun, cartoony mayhem and retro office chaos
-
Fans of Weird Al, quirky indie games, or preservationists of lost media will find it a delightful curiosity
📌 Notes
-
I DID NOT MAKE THIS GAME — full credit remains with Left Brain Games and Weird Al Yankovic.
