Our friends over at No More Robots have unveiled Earth Must Die, the tale of would-be galactic despot VValek Lizardtongue. After his father's death by being horribly impaled on an extremely pointy thing and subsequent accidental surrender to Earth, his reign is not off to the most exciting start. But dang it, he is the third son of the Grand Shepherd of the Tyrythian Ascendancy, and you will learn to respect him!
The voice cast includes some serious comedy power, including Joel Fry (Our Flag Means Death, Game of Thrones), Martha Howe-Douglas (Ghosts, Doctors, and Ben Starr, known both for TV and video game voice acting, including Final Fantasy XVI's Clive Rosfield. Starr picked up a coveted Golden Joystick Award for that one.
It's being developed by Size Five Games, which has brought us Been There, Done That, Time Gentlemen Please, and Lair of the Clockwork God.
