About the Game



Invasion: Neo Earth is a retro sci-fi turn-based strategy game all about battling alien invaders to a soundtrack of Synthwave and Metal.
Simple to pick up but challenging to master, it's all about action - you won't find base building, management sims or xp points here.


Great for fans of heavy riffs and desolate retrograde electronics! The soundtrack is an amalgam of Metal and Synthwave created by Three Rooks Music to bring to life the darkly retro science fiction setting of the game.



Swarms of UFO's. Insidious parasites that turn your troops into zombies. Hybrid mutant horrors toting heavy weaponry. Giant wasps! Three massive bosses that dominate the battlefield. Fight a vast menagerie of alien species controlled by their Sectyd masters.


A freak meteorite shower brings alien invaders to the human colony planet NG-246. Command the planetary defense forces to deploy grunts, grav tanks, war robots and jets in battles across a retro sci-fi world. Choose which missions to fight to plot your path through the extensive campaign. Do you have what it takes to repel the monstrous hordes of the Sectyd?


Choose the loadout of every unit in your army, from a vast array of futuristic guns, launchers, lasers and cannons. Each unit has up to four weapons to choose from with different damage types that are more effective against certain enemies. Remember; if it's shiny it probably deflects lasers but hates bullets.
