Aliens Invaded PAX East: A Super Scientific Report

By now, you probably definitely know that we brought Alien Hominid Invasion to PAX East last month — and it was the first time that our fans EVER got to play it.

As they say, there’s nothing like the first time, so we decided to take some stats from the first time so we could be super analytical (and maybe also make fun of some of you, but only a little).

This first round of invaders didn’t do too bad — in the 167 hours played over the weekend, the Aliens were able to take out 159,137 enemies while only losing 1,402 of their own. Agents were still able to save about 23% of all City Blocks, though, and when it came to Megabot… yeesh. Megabot definitely held it’s own with a solid 41% win rate against the Aliens.

Overall, we’d say that PAX East attendees showed us a decent performance, and with a 94.2% thumbs up rating, we feel pretty confident in saying we did the same for you.

Except for the one Alien that died to the Jetpack Pusher… we might need to have a talk with you.

We’ve still got work to do on the game, as this demo was just a little bitty taste of everything that Alien Hominid Invasion has to offer. But having real live test subjects players try out the game was an awesome experience, and we can’t wait to keep making improvements based off of what we learned at the show! 🛸

The Behemoth’s Home Roadshow feat. Alien Hominid Invasion

As you may have heard, EGX Rezzed will no longer be taking place at the end of March. Our bags were packed, itineraries double checked and reservations made… so now we’re coming to your house instead!

We will be bringing you with us as we embark on the Behemoth’s “traveling” roadshow wherein we travel the globe without leaving our offices. But wait, how will you come with us you ask? As vampire lore states, we can only come into your home with your permission. <vampircal wiki link here> But don’t worry! That won’t be a problem as watching us on Twitch will cover all those bases. It’s just like inviting us into your home or headspace, but minus the vampires. Makes sense, right?

Vlad and I are currently planning a special one of a kind Alien Hominid Invasion stream especially for you next week! Anyone anywhere in the world will be able to get a taste of our new game. It will be delicious! 

Keep an eye out, as we’ll be sharing more details on when exactly that stream will be as soon as we can!

Actually, you don’t really need to keep an eye out, because Vlad will always be able to find you. 🦇

Alien Hominid Invasion: First Look Gameplay

Have you prepped for the Invasion yet? Here’s a little extra intel that will help you get ready for the upcoming Alien Hominid Invasion…

Alien Hominid Invasion is a co-op run ‘n’ gun packed with chaos, mayhem, and a whole lot of explosions. Unlock and equip an arsenal of weapons and boosts, level up, then beam down to invade Earth with up to three other friends. Abduct intel from your enemies to sabotage their plans, observe the oddities of human life, blow up bosses, and mutate into a variety of powerful Alien forms in order to take down the not-so-secret Agents that are dead set on ruining your day.

During the invasion, you’ll determine your own gameplay path with a non-linear level experience and overrun the Agents in sectors built from hundreds of hand-crafted city blocks. Take over by mastering Alien acrobatics including flipping, diving, tossing your enemies, and more, then utilize your mutations to experiment with new mechanics like super speed, healing, and flight!

In co-op, each player can also choose their own challenge by picking their individual difficulty level: Friendly, Normal, or the infamous INSANE mode!

When development is complete, Alien Hominid Invasion is planned to launch on Steam (PC), Nintendo Switch®, and Xbox.

We’ll be sharing additional information about Alien Hominid Invasion across our social media channels as we continue the game’s development process. Be sure to follow us on Twitter and Instagram to stay in the loop!
