Is that a custom weapon slot???!
While we’re on the subject, make sure to only share ONE view of your creation and never the entire template in order to keep it safely yours. Your filled-out template is your key to the Painter Boss castle; if someone else has your full template, they can technically upload your character to the Workshop and claim it as their own. Create and share with caution!
While we have you gathered here, we have one more thing to announce; the Castle Crashers: Painter Boss Paradise DLC will launch on Wednesday, August 6, 2025 at 10:00 AM PDT! We can’t wait to share everything we’ve been working on with you and spend the summer creating powerful characters together!
FAQ
What assets can I customize for my custom character? You will be able to customize the art for your character’s head, body, weapon, shield, portrait, beefy form, and Back Off Barbarian art.
How does magic work for my custom character? Can I create new magic? You will be able to choose one existing magic moveset from any official playable character for your custom creation! You can not change the animations from the chosen moveset or create your own magic.
Are there any rules or guidelines for what custom content is allowed? Like all Steam Workshop content, whatever you create is governed by the Steam Subscriber Agreement, in addition to the Steam Rules for User Generated Content. Failure to abide by these rules may result in your Workshop content being removed! That’s right, Herbert will yeet your content straight into the sunset.
I want to make [copyrighted character here], is that allowed? Plagiarizing someone else’s copyrighted work is against Steam’s rules and guidelines (see above). We can’t wait to see your unique creations, though!
Can someone steal my work and claim it as their own? Yes – if you upload a complete image of your template somewhere online, someone else can upload it to the Steam Workshop and essentially claim it as their own. This is why we suggest that you only upload a thumbnail or portion of what you have created.
If I don’t own the DLC, but someone I’m playing with does, can I use custom characters? If you’re playing with someone who owns the DLC, you will be able to choose any characters they’ve imported and enabled from the Steam Workshop!
Can I load custom characters from the Steam Workshop to Xbox, PlayStation, or Nintendo Switch? The Painter Boss Paradise DLC is currently only available on Steam, meaning none of the DLC features are on console at this time.
Can I charge money for my creation? No, you cannot charge others for downloading any custom characters you add to the Steam Workshop.
Are there any new levels and bosses in this DLC? No – please refer to the “Original” versus “Fresh” graphic near the top of this post to see what features are coming in the DLC!
Greetings earthlings, fellow aliens, and any intergalactic creatures in between! Today is the day. Alien Hominid is BACK on PlayStation! Ready your green blaster, mutation juice, and grenades – it’s time to burn the Agency to the ground, PlayStation style!
After wrapping up development on Alien Hominid Invasion last year and mulling over what updates we could bring to our entire games library, The Behemoth Roadmap was born. Our team received many requests to bring Invasion and HD over to PlayStation after their recent release in 2023, so we made sure to include this as a priority stop in our big chicken road trip!
Our small (but mighty!) team appreciates your patience greatly as we continue development on our remaining roadmap updates, and we’re so excited to finally co-launch Alien Hominid Invasion and Alien Hominid HD to PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5! Now bring out the dancing aliens!
Alien Hominid HD
Ready to experience Alien Hominid HD in shiny 4k glory on your TV? With your mighty blaster and a group of mysterious kids by your side, destroy the Agency and reclaim your spaceship! Fight your way to Area 51 and beyond to rack up those trophies, or take a break from the chaos with any of the original mini games (including 500+ PDA Game levels!).
If you played the original game released on PlayStation waaaay back in 2004, you may notice a few improvements in Alien Hominid HD, including enhanced visuals, various quality-of-life updates, pesky bug fixes, and TURBO FIRE! That one-hit health bar is still there, though, so be sure you’re ready for the classic hardcore gameplay, otherwise you can tweak the difficulty to your liking and make the chaotic killing experience juuuuuust riiiiiight.
Alien Hominid Invasion
Got your spaceship back? We’re only getting started! Continue the chaotic adventure and join the Invasion with up to four players in this fast-paced, objective-based shoot ‘em up! Beam down to hand-drawn neighborhoods to steal enemy intel and sabotage the Agency’s plans. Carve out your own gameplay path to the enemy HQ and take down each mission’s boss; reap the rewards through unlockable mutations, weapons, abilities, and more!
On PlayStation 5, Alien Hominid Invasion will support 120hz for the first time on any console, and your DualSense controller will light up with the color of your alien’s pigment! It’s time to grab your co-op crew, get down to Patric Catani’s intergalactic beats, and make your way to the enemy HQ!
Whether you’re ready to mutate like an alien and jump into the Invasion or just itching to revisit the classic levels of Alien Hominid HD, we hope you have a delightful (and chaotic!) time playing our beloved game babies. Before you go, here’s some last words of inspiration from the Mothership: KILL-IT-FOR-MAMA.
