Plot[edit]
The plot centers around the aliens and their attempts to return to space. All the main characters of the series are playable through the course of the game. The game rejects or distorts some clichéd aspects of the adventure genre, as standard adventure game tactics such as picking up, talking to, or interacting with anything encountered can often result in instant (albeit highly comical) death for the player's currently-controlled character and the need to reload, for example, often without warning. The game's writing takes a more risqué approach to its humor than the TV series, resulting in a 'T' rating from the ESRB and an '11+' rating from the ELSPA.
Development[edit]
Stupid Invaders was developed by Xilam Animation themselves for Windows and Mac OS, and later ported to the Dreamcast by Titanium Studios.[1]
