Invasion of the slightly underwhelming trailer



We want to love Ignition's Teenage Zombies: Invasion of the Alien Brain Thingys, and thanks to its camp title, satirical take on '50s sci-fi, daft storyline, and brain-feasting anti-heroes, Ignition's platformer had already caught our eye from the other side of the bar.

However, just as we were preparing ourselves to waltz over and strike up conversation (this is possibly the worst analogy ever -- sorry), this new trailer appeared. Featuring lead villain Big Brain laughing and joshing his way through dialogue that is -- to put it kindly -- creaky, it smacks of a particularly bad Saturday morning cartoon. Maybe some of you will find that to be part of its appeal. But seriously: the crickets are still chirping after that "snicker" pun.
