All Upgrades in Alien Invasion: RPG Idle Space

There are multiple different types of upgrades, each having their own pros. The best part of the game is that players can choose any upgrades they want from a variety, and don’t have to compromise on settling only for a limited few. In essence, you will be able to upgrade everything for your alien. The real choice comes during the early game when you have limited resources and need to prioritize choosing a certain few to enhance. Don’t fret, as we have covered all the upgrades along with explaining what each of them does. The upgrades are as follows:

• Catching Speed – This upgrade allows your alien to gain additional human hunting speed. Whenever you catch a human, you should see a little timer circle besides them. This indicates the time required to catch any human. Depending on the type of human, the timing can vary. Enhancing this upgrade allows you to catch more humans in shorter duration of time.
• Cargo Capacity – As the name itself might suggest, this upgrade is directly linked to how many humans you can catch at any given point of time. The higher the cargo capacity, the more humans you can hunt. This can be an important upgrade early on as it allows you to hunt more humans without constantly going to the cargo base to unload.
• Move Speed – Enhancing this upgrade directly increases the movement speed of your alien. Movement speed refers to the actual speed of movement, and not to be confused with human catching speed. Players can enhance this aspect of their alien to travel faster between zones. It will also help you unload your cargo easier and faster.
• Catching Tentacles – This upgrade allows players to catch multiple humans at once, thanks to addition of another tentacle. Your alien catches and drains humans with their tentacle. Adding another tentacle will help you load more meat and bones faster.
• Catching Radius – The catching radius determines the amount of enemies that are possible to catch. This radius is indicated by a small white circle near your alien, and if an enemy moves out of this zone, they will not be captured. Enhancing this radius can be a good choice for players who don’t want to constantly chase their enemies and move their alien.
