Press release:
Wiesbaden, Germany, 28th October, 2021.
The Germany-based indie games publisher/developer Assemble Entertainment and indie games developer Robot Pumpkin Games, are today super happy and excited to announce that their sci-fi comedy adventure game “Plan B From Outer Space: A Bavarian Odyssey” is now available for PC (via Steam) and mobile (iOS and Android devices).

The wait is over and Earthly exploration awaits! Publisher Assemble Entertainment and developer Robot Pumpkin Games announced today the Windows PC, iOS, and Android launch of Plan B from Outer Space: A Bavarian Odyssey, a comedic sci-fi text adventure. Plan B From Outer Space leverages choose-your-own-adventure-style gameplay to hilariously tell the daunting tale of a castaway alien who’s taken an unforeseen “vacation” in the Germanic South.

Stranded on this bizarre beer-soaked and pretzel-salt encrusted world, a now earthbound E.T. must keep their wits about them to avoid detection. With over 19 unique endings, each decision made will affect the way the story unfolds. Get immersed in the beautiful hand-drawn scenery, colorful culture, and traditional cuisine…or else rouse the locals’ suspicions.

Subvert the “Alien Invader” trope by taking on the persona of one. The mission? Once the crash and culture shock wear off, explore the cozy Bavarian town of Unter-Hinterobersdorf, located in the beautiful scenic Germanic countryside, and stay under the citizens’ radar while fixing your radar (and the rest of the ship while you’re at it).

Design a cute and cuddly or funky fresh Martian visitor and utilize the Aliens’ shapeshifting abilities for some bonafide “Barbvarian” blending-in. With engaging minigames that progress the narrative, a charming story, and gorgeous illustrations, Plan B from Outer Space: A Bavarian Odyssey is sure to be an unforgettable, out-of-this-world adventure.

Key Features of Plan B from Outer Space: A Bavarian Odyssey Include:

“Basic” Bavarians Meet “Extra” Terrestrials: Design your very own cute, cuddly, and conniving space creature with unique features and a touching backstory
Make the Right (or Funniest) Decision: With 19 possible endings, every choice matters, which means plenty of trial and error with comedic results
Big Brain Blobs: Use those alien wits to solve fun, challenging mini-games and discover handy (or tentacle-y) items to help you escape the savage backwater of Southern Germany
Handmade German Craftsmanship: Dozens of beautifully illustrated backgrounds and animated characters breathe life and personality into this sci-fi comedy experience

Developed by RobotPumpkin Games and published by Assemble Entertainment, Plan B from Outer Space: A Bavarian Odyssey is available now on Steam for £10.49 / €12.49, and iOS and Android for £4.99 / €5.99.

Keeping with Assemble Entertainment’s usual theme, Plan B From Outer Space is also available in a special “Save The World” edition, priced at £20.49 / €22.49. This edition supports ‘BUND Naturschutz’ the largest environmental protection association of Bavaria and includes the game’s official soundtrack.
