Is AlloyDB basically like Aurora DB for AWS?

Yeah its closest analogy is Aurora, but no serverless option, payment is per vCPU, memory, and storage.

Is Google Cloud SQL a more direct alternative to Aurora? I'm having a hard time keeping all these database services straight.

Cloud SQL is RDS; AlloyDB is Aurora.

Architecturally yes but with an extension of in-memory columnar format as well. This makes it an HTAP (Hybid Transactional and Analytical Processing) database.
