In today's crowed video game market it can be hard to stand out amongst the crowd. More often then not your game needs to be
bigger and
flashier looking to stand above the rest. Of course, the other option is to be so
weird and
idiosyncratic that people just can't help but notice.
It is this latter route that is being taken by a game called Stalin vs. Martins. The game is a very arcade-y RTS where you play as...well, let me let the game speak for itself:
Obviously, the main concept behind the game is pretty much clear if you can see its name. It just speaks for itself. The fact that such game exists is quite an event. It doesn't really matter what's behind the name or if the game is playable at all. The concept is enough. Simply makes your brain explode.
Meanwhile, we decided to move a little bit further than making up a bizarre concept and product's weird name. Stalin vs. Martians is also a good real-time strategy game. Probably one of the best in years and years. You can quote us on that.
Bold words there, but what could they possibly show the world that could back up those claims? Perhaps a video of a techno-dancing Stalin?

Yeah, that would work.
Normally this would prompt the question of "just what the hell are the developers on?" Since the developers (all three of them) are Russian though, this is pretty self-explanatory.
