== Trivia ==
*The Alien Knockgun Launcher's model is repurposed from the Pulsar 9000 Shotgun from Save The World. With a unique silver and metallic purple paint scheme to better match The Last Reality's weapon design.
*Despite having an internal damage value, the Alien Knockgun Launcher cannot deal damage to other players in the Mothership, due to damage not occurring at all in the experiment.
*The only way to view the Alien Knockgun Launcher stats in the inventory is by opening the inventory tab before the player is teleported into the Mothership’s cell.
*The Alien Knockgun Launcher has an in-game description, despite not normally being able to view it in the inventory. The description lacks punctuation and is incredibly simple, so it's likely that it's a placeholder.
*When playing team modes, it is possible to keep the Alien Knockgun Launcher, as well as the jetpack, outside of the Mothership via a glitch. 
**It will not deal damage and its knock back ability will not grant a low-gravity effect.
