Two New Games and an Alien Horde of Cross Unlockables!



What would a new Behemoth game be without wacky customization? Actually, here’s a better question – what would a new Behemoth game be without wacky customization referencing other Behemoth games?

We don’t want to imagine that, so here’s a fancy unlock guide for all the heads you can earn in Alien Hominid Invasion for owning our other games on Steam!

How does it work exactly? Well, in Alien Hominid Invasion, you can unlock many different heads through leveling up, securing loot, and buying loot at the Hideout. By also owning our other games on Steam, the following heads are added to the game's loot pool:
  • Castle Crashers – Pink Knight, Green Knight, and Barbarian
  • BattleBlock Theater – Cat Guard, Raccoon, Hat of Purrham
  • Pit People – Horatio, Yosef, Pipistrella
  • Alien Hominid HD – Original Alien

Because who wouldn't want to play through the tragic yet beautiful story of Horatio before turning him into a silly, havoc-wrecking alien who will destroy anything and everything to make his Mothership proud?

This handy dandy guide also coincides with the final day of our Bawk Bawk, Forget-Me-Not Sale, featuring Castle Crashers and BattleBlock Theater at 80% off, with Pit People 60% off! Enjoy!

Alien Hominid HD Arrives to Steam November 1st!

Alien Hominid HD, the award-winning side-scroller from The Behemoth is back, this time for Steam! The game will be co-launching with Alien Hominid Invasion on Wednesday, November 1! Are you ready?

Legend (factually) goes that Alien Hominid is the game that started it all for our little (big) chicken studio. Initially brought to life as a flash game for Newgrounds 21 years ago, the charming hand-drawn animations and exciting side-scroller level design inspired not only the formation of a company, but the motivation to expand the title into a retail console game and hatch what would become the beginnings of The Behemoth universe.

Two decades later, our first game baby RETURNS to modern consoles as we preserve Behemoth history and share it in new ways, all in conjunction with the release of our newest title. We can’t wait to share the world of Alien Hominid with you once again!

Adding to the mayhem, both games will be available for purchase in a bundled discount! The pricing in USD is as follows:
  • Alien Hominid Invasion - $19.99
  • Alien Hominid HD - $11.99
  • Alien Hominid: The Extra Terrestrial Bundle - $24.99 for both games

We’ll leave you with our newly dropped Invasion trailer, jam-packed with all the chaos you’ll experience come November. Thanks as always for your support, and we’ll see you on the Mothership!

Run-and-gun Flash classic Alien Hominid HD will come to Steam alongside a sequel

Alien Hominid was a run-and-gun Adobe Flash game originally released in 2002 via influential website Newgrounds. It then got a vastly improved HD release on various consoles between 2003 and 2007.


That HD re-release is now being re-released, and this time it's heading back to PC. It'll have upgraded graphics and weekly and monthly leaderboards when it arrives sometime this year, alongside a sequel.
