Product Description

Review by Ray Ivey of Just Adventure, 2001: Stupid Invaders, from the deranged Xilam Studios, is enough to make me believe in the adventure genre again. It's just delirious pure adventure pleasure from beginning to end. There are many things to admire about this title, but the alpha and omega must be the graphics, the graphics, the graphics! The game has the look of the late 40s Warner Brothers Looney Toons on steroids. The shapes and camera angles are consistently delightful, and the colors will come dangerously close to frying your retinas. Looking at this game, I was reminded of the first time I saw Dumbo on a big screen, when the richness and intensity of the color saturation literally pushed me back in my seat. The environments in the world of Stupid Invaders, whether it's a wildly appointed Victorian house, an evil scientist's lair, or a gigantic dung factory (don't ask), are just plain fun to spend time in. I found myself staring at the screen with the same stupid look of delight you'd find in the eyes of a kid in a candy store. Special kudos must go to Thomas Szabo, the project's talented art director. Next up are the voices. Aren't we all tired of lame or just adequate voice acting in games? The characters in SI, especially the aliens, are very professionally done--they're distinctive and hilarious. The character development, in fact, is one of the most fun aspects of game. There are (depending on if you are counting torsos or heads) either five or six aliens. There's Bud, the stupid-sounding but quick-thinking orange one; Stereo, the serene, double-headed, bright red one; Etno, the purple one with the high IQ; Gorgious, the husky, gruff, bucktoothed blue one; and finally, sour-apple green Candy, the nymphomaniacal presurgical transsexual one. Got that, everyone? Any questions? One of the game's most ingenious elements is the fact that you get to play, at various times in the game, each of the alien characters.
