ECTS 3 September 2000 - Ubi Soft® Entertainment and Xilam are proud to present Stupid Invaders, a zany, 3D adventure game inspired by the animated TV series Space Goofs. Featuring the wildest and weirdest characters from a bizarre universe, gamers will soon have the chance to strap themselves in for the funniest most outrageous adventure of their life!

Five strange aliens, one tiny spaceship and a whole heap of trouble! After accidentally crash landing on Earth, Etno and his alien pals unwind from their latest calamity. With only a moments break, the five hapless aliens find themselves on the run from an evil scientist, Dr. Sakarine, who collects aliens as a hobby. However, this evil professor and his hired henchman, Bolok, have plans for Etno and his friends, which includes a comprehensive study of alien physiology. Players must guide the aliens and do their best to find crazy solutions and escape the clutches and scalpels, of the madman?

This cartoon-like universe is brought to life with amazing 3D animations (utilizing a new graphic rendering technique) and colourful backgrounds, as the aliens evade their pursuers in this madcap world. Highly stylized with a hi-resolution look, Stupid Invaders is graphically brilliant and movie-like in quality, as the player has the ability to embody each one of the aliens to host a variety of sensations.
