Just when you thought you'd eradicated all traces of aliens from otherwise liberty-loving soil, reports confirm to the contrary - THE ALIEN INFESTATION IS SPREADING! New areas are being ravaged, and the enemies are evolving!
This update brings you new levels, new enemies and an exhaustive list of bug fixes (with plenty more fixes still pending)...
NEW ENEMIES
Broodworms! Worms erupting from the terrain, spurting facehuggers out their mouths, dripping in acid saliva!
Screechers! Acid filled aliens rush screaming towards you and EXPLODE!
Mega Sandworms!
Explosive Eggs! Alien eggs oozing acid!
Jetpack Mooks!
OTHER NEW STUFF
Online Chat
Boss Health Bars
As well as maggots...and new Level Editor triggers (quick triggers for aliens, force trigger swap bro / add more specials)
