Navigation
Select a large, green computer terminal to go to map view.
The map will take you between levels and from playable levels to the Omnicopter.
You can also move from one level to the next by walking to them.
The Omnicopter serves as your base and hub level.
Some parts of the level are blocked by removable obstacles.
Use an alien’s special power to destroy the blockage.
Each block can only be removed by an alien of a specific type.
Other parts of the level are locked behind specific colored keys.
Fight level bosses to retrieve keys.
Basics
Use various Omnitrix aliens to defeat Steam Smythe’s robots as you encounter them.
Collect purple XP orbs to unlock attack and defense upgrades.
Decorate the Omnicopter with various items you find along the way.
By upgrading and decorating the Omnicopter, you improve its XP trickle.
Omnicopter
The Omnicopter serves as the hub for the entire game.
You can do the following actions while on the Omnicopter:
Switch out your aliens (via Gwen)
Improve your stats (via Grandpa Max)
Decorate and upgrade the base (via Phil)
Unlock deco boxes
Staying in the Omnicopter gives you a trickle of XP.
You can decorate the Omnicopter with items retrieved from deco boxes and upgrade it with XP.
Decorating the Omnicopter increase the amount of XP gained each time you enter.
Upgrading gives you more slots to decorate with.
Alien selection
Due to the virus, you can only choose up to 3 alien forms at a time.
You have 10 alien forms to choose from, divided according to four categories:
Energy
Diamondhead
Stinkfly
Heatblast
Shock Rock
Strength
Four Arms
Humungousaur
Slash
Rath
XLR8
Impact
Slapback
Cannonbolt
You will sometimes need to use a specific alien type’s special attack to unlock an area.
Attacking
For most enemies, use your regular attack.
Upgrade your regular attack to bolster your attack strength.
Your special attack is useful when dealing with bosses, powerful enemies, and large groups of enemies.
Your special attack will take time to recharge.
Upgrading can reduce the time it takes to charge your special attack.
Hit points
Enemies come in two flavors: ranged and melee
Both types of enemies can be defeated by fighting them head on.
Ranged enemies can fire from a distance, but go down fast.
You can dodge their projectiles if need be.
Melee enemies can only attack you when they’re close.
In some parts of a level, you must contend with large waves of enemies coming at once.
You can’t leave until all the enemies are defeated.
The enemies might come in two to three waves.
Replenish your hit points by collecting hearts.
Hearts may be found lying around the world or within boxes and other objects across the level.
Defeated enemies may also spawn hearts.
Increase your survivability by upgrading your hit points
The game features four villains working alongside Forever Knight.

XP and upgrades
Collect XP by defeating enemies.
You can also collect XP by breaking various objects across the level.
Your enemies and breakable objects respawn each time you re-enter a level or level division.
Unlock and upgrade your XP magnet to bring XP orbs closer to you without going toward them.
Use collected XP to improve your attack and defense strength.
You may also use XP to upgrade the Omnicopter.
Strategy
Use your XP wisely
You won’t go far in the first level if you don’t upgrade.
Your first few tries will serve as level grinding.
Expect to do a lot of level grinding before getting to the bosses.
Prioritize your attack strength and hit points first. Make the cooldown time of your special attacks a second priority, and the XP magnet third.
Put off upgrading the Omnicopter until you’ve collected a lot of decorations.
Choose your battles and your paths wisely.
You don’t need to unblock every corridor to progress through the game.
Leave blocked areas that lead to locked rooms. Save your special attacks for where it matters.
Use special attacks to clear out large clusters of enemies. We recommend them for areas with 5 or more enemies or during enemy waves.
Unless you’re level grinding, you don’t need to face all the enemies in a level. If you can avoid the areas where enemy waves happen, do so.
Take note of an enemy’s attack range:
Ranged enemies can cause a lot of damage if you can’t dodge their projectiles. Take them out first if possible.
Dodge their projectiles whenever you can.
Short-ranged enemies will attack back when you’re close, but ranged enemies usually can’t.
