Games similar to Alien Swarm?

Are there any top-down games similar to Alien Swarm that is available on Steam?

Nation Red comes to mind. I tested it with a friend last weekend while it was free to play and we did not like it at all.

Bunch of Heroes is a similar top-down shooter. I bought in in the winter sale and it is more or less okay in my eyes.

I like Renegade Ops the best in this category, but you're playing with cars. Also this one is intended to be played with a gamepad and some like the keyboard controlls and some don't. Everyone likes the awesome effects, though. You can drive through houses, almost everything explodes and it has Gordon Freeman as playable character!
