Stalin vs. Martians, 04/09!

So there I was, trawling the depths of /v/, when I saw something that shocked me to my core.

Someone is making an RTS called Stalin vs. Martians. The name is self-explanatory, in the vein of Jetpack Brontosaurus and Off-Road Velociraptor Safari.

Not only will you be controlling the glorious fodder of the Soviet Army, but you will also be controlling Stalin himself, on the battlefield, no less!
Vopros: Can we play as Stalin himself?
Otvet: Yes, but not from the start. Stalin is our commander and he gives us orders. Closer to the grand finale he will appear on the battlefield as a playable unit - a huge colossus, five times higher than any other creature. Just like it was in the real life.

I lack the words to truly describe this game, so screenshots and website follow:

    Watch out, blue elephant Martians, Stalin is in town!

    Alternatively: Quit Stalin and release the damn game!

    This reminds me of R.A.D for the PS2 actually.

    That was a great game. I remember buying it on a whim in a bargain bin. And i never regretted it, my friends and i had a blast for hours in the VS multriplayer, the weird controls just made the game even more hilarious. Like accidentally turning into a tank while your dude was on its shoulder, crushing him inside the joints for instant death lol.

    Oh wait this isn't RAD at all.

    I thought when they said you could control Stalin it would be like from his perspective ordering troops around.

    Nevermind!

    Whilst the concept alone deserves plaudits, the game itself doesn't really look all that good, at least not from the trailer.

    They may have the best FAQ page ever.

    "Stalin vs. Martians is not only a kitsch (check Wikipedia for this word if you're from Iowa), but also a parody. Sort of."

    HA HA they made fun of rural America!

    This is like Sneak King. Just the sort of thing you want to have around when you have company and they say, "I've played all these games. Don't you have something new?"

    Vopros: Your game is basically like Red Alert 3. The same shit. What's the difference?
    Otvet: Since our production budget is 1 zillion times lower than the budget of Red Alert 3, we think it is actually a compliment.
