Origin[]
Roswell loading screen in THPS3
The level is a fictional military facility located in Roswell, New Mexico. The entire theme is based on the infamous conspiracy theories surrounding a supposed UFO crash in the outskirts of the town, in 1947.
Trivia[]
- The level is notable for its military facility setting containing UFOs and Aliens, a departure from the relatively grounded settings of previous levels in the game.
- The sliding doors that open automatically when the player skates close are always opened permanently in the THPS3 rendition of Roswell.
- Roswell features a specific metal sound only used in this level.
- There is a captured alien lying on the table behind the glass in a passage. The player may hear his prayers for help occasionally. This is an obvious reference to the 1982 movie E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, as the alien once in a while says, "Phone home" which is E.T.'s catchphrase. There is also a grind gap called the "ET Grind".
- A UFO, military jeep and a tank are all held behind red lasers in the excavation building.
- The THPS3 version of the level has several graphical glitches, including a non-working middle rail animation and incorrect light blue vertex colors at excavation area as seen on the screenshot below.
