Unlock answer

Complete Alien Mode, rather than paying Bonds. Activate five hidden levers around the starting fortified town, then win the run with alien spawns.

Finish the unlock

  1. Prepare. Buy fuel and organize the team before activating the last lever.
  2. Check activation. The wiki describes a UFO, dark-blue sky and Ray Pistols for players.
  3. Win. Finish the activated run. The wiki says Bite Sized can shorten the route; no code gives an instant unlock.

Starting loadout

The class gets a Shovel, Ray Rifle, two Ray Ammo packs and four alien guards. Alien Desert supplies ammo ores but also dangerous enemies.
