BattleBlock Theater Cutscene Development

About a year ago we were very lucky to bring in a new member of The Behemoth team to help with BattleBlock Theater development. Derek Lieu first joined us in 2012 to help with our Kickstarter video for the Necromancer figurine. Then we brought him in to change the process for BattleBlock Theater’s cutscene animation. You may also recognize his video editing in the recent trailers for BattleBlock Theater with art by Dan Paladin & Eric Haddad and narration by Will Stamper.

 
Derek has taken some time to share his involvement in the process for the in game cutscenes in BattleBlock Theater (BBT) and his collaboration with Dan & Will, from concept to final product. Read on!

BattleBlock Theater FF Unlock: Toast

FeaturePost_ToastAre you toast? Not yet you aren’t! You’ll need to complete the newest Solo and Co-Op Furbottom’s Features (FF) to get this special limited time unlock!

That’s right! It’s bye bye Winston & Donuts, hello crunchy on the outside bread. For these next two weeks, you’ll need to complete one of the two Furbottom’s Features, solo or co-op, to unlock this special prisoner. Go to the Furbottom’s Features section of the BattleBlock Theater website to read more on the newly featured playlists.

For those of you who didn’t catch Winston, Donuts, Furbottom, etc., the prisoners will be going back into the vault (poor things are trapped in a prison within a prison) but they’ll be back someday for another visit to the outside world. Just stick around and keep following our blog, Facebook pages or Twitter to find out the unlocks!
