Definitely one of the more fun games, tragic that the multiplayer is dead, although, it is very fun if you wanna play with your friends, watching them get killed while you're being surrounded and hearing them scream for help on discord vc is really funny.
Alien Swarm is actually quite a fun game, even if it's rather short and lacking in content (it only recieved 1 content update and 1 bugfix update). And for a game with only 1 official campaign made up of 7 levels, it has some rather deep-ish worldbuilding if you look closely. Definitely give it a try. If you want more AS, play Reactive Drop.
Peak game, the full game is "Aline Swarm Reactive Drop" you can consider this game your training grounds xD the Co-op PVE team dynamic is really enjoyable and there's always a lot of fun! 1-when you eradicate a TON of alien bugs with your friends 2-or try to survive the mission before getting eradicated
