Hi everybody! We hope you’ve been enjoying Attack of the Earthlings in its current form over the last month or so. We’re now looking to the future and deciding on post-release content, but we need your help. Please take a moment to answer our post-launch content questionnaire: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeqQFAB1Pl0c4yCEwKd2iBZrZDrGlJy9pcHr_lmpYU2ODgSpA/viewform?usp=sf_link It’s a single question, and should take only seconds but it will really help us understand exactly what the community wants and where we should be focusing our efforts. And remember, as Dickinham would say: “Join the Junkfish family, help increase pro… ehh, customer satisfaction” All the best, Team Junkfish

Hello everyone! Things have been non-stop here at Junkfish HQ! We have moved into a new office right by the sea - fitting for us! With the move, things have taken a while to get up and running but we managed to assemble a patch and fix some more issues: -Bug Fixes- -High- - Fixed an issue where PA man would get stuck underground if the player skipped a cutscene in mission 7 - Fixed an issue where playing/not playing the tutorial level could affect the player's total mutagen - Fixed an issue where Swarmer units were not able to move after a Blitzit's attack - Addressed a bug that could cause High Turnover and/or the Buffet achievements to reset their totals -Medium- - Fixed an issue where the Matriarch would not appear in a cutscene if she was in a hiding spot beforehand - Fixed a quit confirmation screen that was not localized - Fixed an issue where loading an autosave into the campaign menu would result in no music being played If the game is crashing for you, even after verifying your game's cache, please try running the game in DX9 by choosing the DirectX 9 start-up option. Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these devs from the swift completion of their tasks! Cheers, Team Junkish

Hello everyone! As the development on Attack of the Earthling progressed, it became clear that our ambitions for the game was out of step with the timeframe we had set. Therefore, it is with a heavy heart that we have decided to delay the release of Attack of the Earthlings until early 2018. One of the key reasons for this later date is that we set out with the goal of wanting to make Attack of the Earthlings more accessible for players around the world. Hence we are planning to localise Attack of the Earthlings into a number of languages.
We have also been improving the overall graphics and audio for the game as well as hoping to provide support for Mac and Linux users. Attack of the Earthlings will be playable at Eurogamer Expo this month and we hope to get some valuable feedback from players that we will now have time to implement before launch. If you’re in the UK and attending the show - come say hello and give us your thoughts! :) Thank you all for your support, especially to those of you who have added Attack of the Earthlings to your wishlist! It’s massively appreciated. We hope to update you all with how development is progressing soon. [img=https://media.giphy.com/media/3ov9k0viQEAEJC1LHy/giphy.gif] Thanks again,
