See You at Insomnia the Gaming Festival!

by

Birmingham, watch out! It’s not a bird! It’s not a plane! Wait, it is a bird – a huge chicken has been flung via slingshot across the pond and IT’S LANDING ON YOUR CITY! RUUUUN! We’re heading to Insomnia the Gaming Festival at the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) in Birmingham this March 29-31, and we can’t wait to see you.

We’re bringing Alien Hominid Invasion, Alien Hominid HD, and BattleBlock Theater alllll the way to Birmingham! In addition to alllll the exhibit hall’s other awesome playable games (including many indies and tabletop titles), the convention features many immersive experiences like life-sized DnD, live-action gaming, simulation games, and a VR arena!

Imagine an alien invasion in VR… Actually, that sounds a bit terrifying. How about we stick with our 2D aliens, and you try out whatever exciting VR experiences the Insomnia crew has prepared? See you at the show!

Pink Knight Valentine’s Day 2024 Gallery

by

Here is our Pink Knight Valentine’s Day 2024 art gallery! A post highlighting the winners is coming soon, but we wanted to take the time to appreciate the nearly 300 artists who participated this year!

After reading so many endearing cards and seeing Pink Knight made out of so many different materials (even ice cream!!!!), we’re truly feeling the love this February. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for spreading the love of Pink Knight and Castle Crashers!

Another Year, Another PAX East

by

It’s time to head back to Boston for PAX East 2024! That’s right, this chicken has once again decided to fly cross-country to bring you the best gift of all – wacky co-op video games!

This March 21-24, you can find us at Booth #16061 in the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center from 10:00am-6:00pm daily.

“Why should I go all the way to Boston to meet a chicken?”

That’s a great question. Well, we created these super special arcade cabinets just for you to have a heightened experience when playing our games at shows like PAX East. And you get to say hi to us, which makes us pretty happy! What’s the opposite of a double-edged sword?

Here’s the games coming alllll the way to Boston with us:

Castle Crashers

Back Off Barbarian

Alien Hominid Invasion

Alien Hominid HD

And wait.. there’s more?! I hear talks of BattleBlock Theater making an appearance at a trade show for the first time in five years. We’ve dusted it off just a little, so why not come try it out at PAX East? 😉

On top of the games, we’ll have exclusive merch, daily competitions, and general silliness in the booth all weekend long. Stay tuned for more info, and we can’t wait to see you soon!
