Inspiration

There is a lot of inspiration for this game, as it is a common theme found in scifi literature and film. However, I'll pick the top few movies that come to my mind in no particular order of importance:

The Faculty: A 1998 mess of a film that is fun if you enjoy a blatant exploration of scifi tropes. A group of high school students fights off an alien invasion which snatched their Faculty.

The Thing: John Carpenter's paranoia masterpiece. In a remote cold base, an alien invades and begins to snatch the crew.

Screamers: A cult movie based on a Philip K. Dick story called The Second Variety. Man-made weapons evolve to look like people.

The Arrival: A pretty terrible 1996 film staring Charlie Sheen as astronomer Zane as he discovers an alien plot to terraform the earth.
