Another Alien Challenge Ends…

May your high score runs be plentiful, and may the shots that come at you during extraction be few and far between!

Another invasion has come and gone, and while we’ve got some work to do preparing for the next one, we wanted to take a quick break to announce the winners of our demo competitions.

With over 6 million invader kills and over 21 thousand hours invading, you all surely impressed us, but there were a few epic hominids who spent hours perfecting their skills. The winners of both categories are as follows:

INSANE High Score Competition

1) Destri – 143,569,067
2) HydroSheep – 28,038,412

Destri from Alien Hominid Invasion scored 143 million?! That is pretty INSANE if you ask me. (See what I did there?)

Speedrun Competition

1) Destri – 10:12.90
2) Derpy – 10:51.50

Did you know our demo can be completed in less than 11 minutes?! We didn’t either! Thanks for teaching us how to go fast.

Well, we were in a bit of a pickle when we saw Destri won both the INSANE High Score and Speedrun competitions… just kidding! We ate all of the pickles and quickly decided to also give the first place prize to the runner-ups in both categories. Enjoy an alien-themed bucket hat, socks, and keychain on us! You three deserve it.

As always, thanks to all who participated and shared their gameplay with us! A friendly community competition is what we all need once in a while. We’ve got a few things planned for the game’s release, including co-op challenges, so stay tuned! Until next time, earthlings. Or are you fellow hominids now? Hmmm.

Alien Hominid Invasion Demo Mothership Data Report

Greetings, invaders! Next Fest has come and gone, meaning it’s time to share some top-secret intel about the Mothership Data you all gathered for us last week. We’d like to thank each of you for helping us with the Invasion by sharing your thoughts and silly gameplay moments – we value your time and input more than you know!

Now, what you’ve all been waiting for. Drumroll, please…

To explain the intel in a little more detail:

The keyboard warriors win again! But wait, didn’t the Mothership suggest using a controller at the start? Since the demo was on Steam only, I suppose this makes sense in the grand scheme of things.

As for the most challenging foe, it seems the Hunters gave our invaders the most trouble, dealing 7% of all incoming damage toward all aliens. Don’t worry, your time for revenge will come. Surely.

Alien mission failure rate was pretty high at 71.9%, with most invaders losing on the third city block. I wonder what types of enemies you all were encountering then…

Invader kill to death ratio was at 44.8%, with over 6 million invader kills and 135,613 deaths. Great job to all our valiant alien friends for fighting the good fight!

For favorite cosmetics, it was no surprise to see one of our epic Vtuber heads as one of your most chosen items. Sarah has really started a trend here, eh? Honorable mention to the giraffe-like head, and the most popular weapons of course – Energy Knife, Dual Lasers, and the Combustor (what stylish weapons you all chose)!

Total invader playtime was at 21,274 hours – you all spent 2.4 years in a span of a week invading Earth! The Mothership is truly proud.

Once again, thanks to all the earthlings who took the time to try our game and share your thoughts about it! We couldn’t do it without you. Now that it’s all said and done, we’ll keep reviewing our Mothership Data and use it wisely to polish up the game. See you next time~
