The holiday season has started, which means the year is coming to an end. We’ve had a lot of fun with the live streams on Twitch TV this year, and we’re going to wrap up with two more streams in December.
 
Next week, our live stream on Twitch TV will be our last Play with the Devs for 2013. Contrary to popular belief, it isn’t only the nice children that will be receiving gifts for the holidays! We’re going to see who is the naughtiest player and give those people a chance to get a Behemoth prize. On December 4th from 4PM-5:30PM PST, you and another community player may be called upon to play against The Behemoth team in either Muckle or Grab the Gold arena modes in BattleBlock Theater. The team with the highest points in that specific mode will be given a special prize: The Behemoth Chicken Charm + Cardinal Charm. Some happy birds to make your holidays happy.

So now the question is, are you naughty or nice? Do you have it in you to set a frog bomb on us or steal gold from us?
 
You must be in the chatrooms on our Twitch channel on December 4th from 4-5:30PM PST in order to qualify to Play with the Devs.

 
Also, we will be giving chatroom people a chance to get a free Gestureworks Gameplay code! The most unique questions will be selected and given this new software for their Windows 8 tablet. You’ll be able to play PC games like Castle Crashers on your tablet when you download using the free code.

 

Our live stream on December 18th, originally scheduled as a Play with the Devs episode, will be focusing on our Voyeur Feed.

Yesterday, we had our Thanksgiving edition of Play with the Devs streamed live on Twitch TV. We cut up some construction paper to relive our elementary school days and created the illusion that we were all pilgrims–or so we hope.

On the live stream, we did a short preview of an upcoming BattleBlock Theater Behemoth-made playlist called CoMentum Monster. More details on the release date on that, but for now you can watch the below clip to see what will be in store for you:


 
FeaturePost_TURKEYThe second part of our stream focused on a game the Level Design Team came up with called “Torch the Turkey.” The new Turkey prisoner was released during our live stream yesterday and used in a Muckle arena mode playlist designed specifically for this game. Basically, The Behemoth pair played the Turkey prisoner and the community pair played the “hunters.” The hunters would have to use their fireball weapon against the turkeys and set them on fire! Turkeys were only allowed to attack using their burning bodies to set their enemies aflame. Watch the insanity in the clip below:
