Our BattleBlock Theater Beta Begins on Steam

by

SteamTrailerGuyThe BattleBlock Theater Steam Beta begins today!
 
We’re excited to have so many people be a part of this journey to bring BBT onto PC. Our selected Beta Testers should receive their Beta keys in their inboxes (please be patient as there are thousands of emails that need to go out) and Testers will start off by doing free-play tonight. Then we’ll all work together to check different areas each day by playing a specific online section at suggested times. Our development team organized these group playthroughs with the Beta Testers so we could maximize the week-long Beta.
 
It’s an awesome opportunity to allow Steam users to play through our game first before it hits the store and this helps our team by giving us a more real-world test environment. We’re so grateful to all the Beta Testers for volunteering their time and hope that they enjoy this special early preview of the Steam version of BattleBlock Theater. Now, without further ado, BETA GO!

 

Getting Toasty in BattleBlock Theater

by

I think I’ve personally had it with this mad winter. Dropping cold temperatures and then scorching hot days in the middle of February. Make up your mind, World! We can’t control things in reality, but in the island of cats and dangers we can unlock anything. So, it’s time to get Toasty again.

 

If you missed Toast last year, we’re bringing it back to BattleBlock Theater XBLA as a reward to those who finish the new Furbottoms Features playlists. You can play the new Featured Solo Playlist or replay the Featured Co-Op playlist to unlock this delicious snack.

 

Just imagine if you encounter toast enemies with a partner as “Breakfast Face”, could you make a double-decker breakfast sand-o?!

 

Limited time only!
 

PAX East – Pinny Arcade Pins!

by

Our merchandise team has been working towards the upcoming PAX East show that starts on April 11th in Boston. Penny Arcade just announced some third party pins on Friday and our new pin designs were part of that post! Look at our shiny new collectibles:

The four new pins are the second set of Pinny Arcade pins we’ve come out with. Each represent our company and games (from left to right): the Alien from Alien Hominid, The Behemoth company logo, Golden Whale from BattleBlock Theater, and Pink Knight from Castle Crashers. Pins are limited in quantity, with only one thousand of each Series Two pin!

 

All our Pinny Arcade pins are blind boxed in our Chonku Chonku capsule machines. PAX East attendees can buy the coins for the machine at our gift shop at Booth 512.

PAX East attendees will also have a chance to get some pins from our Series One set that we first brought to PAX Prime 2013. Series One pins are also blind boxed in Chonku Chonku machines and there are very, very limited quantities left for Series One pins, so get them soon!

 

Come engage in trading madness and merriment!
