Hello, adventure chasers!

It's been a while since we have made an announcement. We are very happy and excited at the same time to make this announcement to you. We have finally decided on a release date to launch the game. It's a very big step for us after all these efforts and blood, sweat... aaand all the other things, you know.

We've decided to release the game on the 6th of January 2022.

Firstly, we have planned to release the game in Q3 of 2021, but we admit, it was too optimistic. Then we thought we could do it in Q4 but here we are. The game is almost ready but we are making sure we left no room for bugs, errors, and etc. The localizations are almost done too. Besides these, we'll do our best to spread the word to as many people as we can to let the world know about Crowalt and Hugh's journey.

Thanks to all fans who have come this far with following us. We've put a lot of love into this game since this is our very first game to be released. We hope that it'll be a nice start and then we'll be able to show you more works of ours in the future.

Let's spread the word; 6th of Jan, 2022!

Stay safe, stay healthy.

Hello Captains! This is the last preview, today we are going to introduce the renovation of Alien Marauder's gameplay. Are you looking forward to it?

Before we begin, let’s take a look at the recent game updates:
- 3 new vexan units
- 1 new defense tower
- 2 new were maps added in the Survival Mode (currently 4 maps in total)
Alien Marauder will start the EA version on November 18th of 2021.

Game Settings & Hotkeys
Like other RTS games, in Alien Marauder you can modify your gameplay settings, click "Setting" on the main screen in order to modify them. The system has two sets of shortcut keys for players to set, although the game plan provides a preset value, players can adjust according to their own habits, after all, you should use what suits you best!



Game Difficulty

Survival Mode
As stated in Spoiler Episode 2, Survival Mode has two different victory goals. Under the same conditions, "Mode 2" is more difficult than "Mode 1".
The Difficulty Score ranges from 30 to 1,245, and players can adjust the difficulty by themselves.




We sincerely suggest that new players start with 30 points of difficulty, first adapt to the rhythm and operation of the game and get familiar with the game content, and then go on and challenge higher difficulties. However, if you’re dying to challenge the highest difficulty, we can only pray for you.



Defense Mode
In the defense mode, we have added the hell difficulty and suicide difficulty. Because the creators are still stuck in the basic mode, they failed to unlock these two difficulties, but I saw colleagues and other captains’ videos doing the challenge, 100,000 aliens on the same screen need to be experienced by the captains themselves. If you successfully finish the challenge, remember to send us screenshots or videos of it!



Hero Design
After choosing the game mode and difficulty you’ll decide which hero to use, each mode currently provides two heroes, the captains need to choose one of the four heroes, of course, the hero’s damage and positioning are different, players can choose their hero according to their play style. For example, Layton is good at long-range attacks, while Baldur is good at melee combat (specific heroes can look back at Spoiler Episode 1).




The hero system is one of our most important systems, and we have given a lot of thought and verification to the design of hero skills, initially divided into three parts: peripheral skills, combat skills and operational skills.

Peripheral skills: is the general game "proficiency", proficiency growth will give the hero some additional benefits, but as proficiency increases, the benefits are more on the honor level than on the numerical level, preventing overpowering at high proficiency

Operational skills: Each hero has completely different operational skills in building, gathering, and troop composition, with some heroes favoring economy, long-range, army leadership and others favoring melee combat, and their own strength.

Combat skills: specific to the game, because as mentioned before we do not want players to overuse micromanagement to gain a great advantage, combat skills are basically based on this concept, generally by 2 active +1 passive +1 ultimate, 2 active skills need some release timing and positioning requirements, the cooldown is very short, which is also the biggest requirement for the operation, passive skill generally only provides value growth, and the ultimate is a strategic skill, it generally has a very special use depending on the situation, rather than the other skills.

The above three points make up the basic design idea of our heroes, like having the root of the tree and the fork of the foundation, and what we do subsequently is to make combinations on these basics to provide players a completely different game experience as much as possible.

Hey there, ninjas! Producer K is in the house! You know, I've always been wondering, but why is it so easy to gain weight, but so hard to get skinny? I want to slim down, but I also love sweet things. But if I eat something sweet, I crave something salty. And if I eat that, I crave something sweet again! It's a viscious loop!
Anywho, we are proud to bring back our Sweets Swimsuits for the first time in a while! Our hero this time finds himself helping the girls do a lot of things from entering a sweets contest, training to become a first-rate patissier ninja, helping someone pass on, etc.! Can our hero help the girls make desserts in the kitchen?!
It's always nice to have something sweet when you're tired, but just be sure not to have too much! That said, you can have as many desserts as you want from our girls!

Dear Users,

Thank you very much for your continued support.
An update has gone live, please read on to find out more about the changes.

• Server Migration
  Following the end of service for Tokoyo: The Tower of Perpetuity's server, we have switched over to a brand new service, which unfortunately will cause the number of candies to be reset. As such, we will set the starting candy amount at 380 for November.
  
• Added 12 new maps.
  
• Added Gravity Orbs
  When you are in contact with the aura of a suspicious purple orb, your jumping ability will be significantly increased and your descending speed will be significantly decreased. Be extra careful in areas with Succubus and Harpies.
  
• Increased Imibi's skill power by 20%.
  
• Several minor adjustments and bug fixes.

Update
Firstly, we would like to apologize for the delay with this update. The main reason we could not deliver on time was the unexpected end of service of our server. As a result, we had to reconstruct the game's backend, which caused the delay. However, we are currently working on a huge update in preparation for the game's full release, so please stay tuned!
