Beta Launch: Play, Test & Help Shape Mayhem

To kick off the beta, we’re inviting players to jump in, explore the game, and share their experiences. While the leaderboard will track wins, the core focus of this phase is gathering valuable feedback and celebrating community contributions.

Over the next two weeks, players can submit bug reports, gameplay suggestions, and balancing feedback. Rewards will be distributed based on the quality of submissions, helping us identify what’s working and what needs improvement.

We’re also introducing a content-based reward track where players can submit clips of their best shots or favorite in-game moments. Selected footage may be featured in a future community highlight video.

A dedicated Mayhem channel in the official Alien Worlds Discord has been set up to share feedback and submit entries via a simple Google Form.

This is your opportunity to help shape the future of Mayhem: Alien Worlds. Your input will directly guide the next phase of development.

Gameplay Inspired by a Classic and Built for New Audiences

Mayhem draws inspiration from cult-favorite Worms 3D, blending tactical artillery-style combat with the visual depth and lore of Alien Worlds. Players compete in 1v1 and 4v4 squad battles set in fully destructible environments, using timing, skill, and turn-based strategy to eliminate their opponents.

This game was designed to appeal to a broader gamer profile with familiar mechanics and quick match formats as part of our effort to attract mainstream players into the Alien Worlds ecosystem.

Built for the Community, By the Community

Mayhem was designed with the long-term vision of community-driven development. This game is a step toward decentralized game operations.

As the game evolves, the goal is to hand off operational tools such as self-hosted tournament tooling to the community, allowing players, creators, and DAOs to run their own events independently.
