Rumour has it that the Newgrounds-inspired 2D action game is coming to Europe!

Following a seemingly innocuous post on the Newgrounds forum, we are led to believe that Alien Hominid is coming to European shores! Click here to visit the site.

The post, made by the webmaster of the site states:

"We are working on foreign language translations of Alien Hominid, and could use a Dutch translator."

For those of you who aren't "In The Know" Alien Hominid is inspired by the work of the guys at Newgrounds and features the Alien from the title in a crazy and explosively colourful 2D side-scrolling adventure in a similar mould to Viewtiful Joe.

Of course, this is purely speculation on our behalf, you don't however have to be a Rocket Scientist to put two and two together and come up with the idea that a team looking out for European translators could easily result in a European game. We'll keep you posted.

UPDATE: Cube-Europe Confirms! A version of the game IS in development for Europe! We received the following email from one of the creators:

Yes, we are currently working on the PAL version of Alien Hominid. O~3 Entertainment is publishing the US/Canadian version and we are current(ly) working to determine who our European publishing partner will be. Pitching to publishers is grueling work but it has been very rewarding and there is a lot of interest in the title.

This is good news, folks! And remember: You heard it first on Cube-Europe!
