Game Info

Developed and published by NiftyToolsUK, Aliens and Umbrellas was released on July 2, 2019. It supports multiplayer and Steam Achievements, and is available for players of all ages (required age 0). The game is available in English. Players can earn a temporary Blue Shield by hitting blue umbrellas, offering protection against blue alien bullets, but this shield does not defend against other alien projectiles or physical contact.
