Stalin vs. Martians dated, still makes absolutely no sense photo

Indie PC real-time strategy game Stalin vs. Martians is still a ridiculous concept, and it's still coming out later this month. To be more specific, it's actually hitting "all major digital games retailers" on April 20.

Offering up a single quote for the press release, executive producer at Mezmer Games Tom Söderlund said that "one contributing factor to the success could be the high level of historical accuracy, that is completely missing from the game." Right you are, Tom.

History on its lonesome is boring for most of us. History as shown through an interactive medium such as games is at the very least mildly entertaining. But history that isn't at all accurate and instead opts to take more than a few liberties? Bingo. You've got my attention.

Hit the jump for a newish trailer.

I still don't get the idea behind it, but then again, maybe I'm not supposed to XD

I wish more people made games like this. The creators obviously didn't take themselves seriously for this one.

It's like the first SF movie and the unlincensed Chinese one , so terribly mediocre it's good.
