Tokyo Game Show Setup Pics!

by

The boys are in Tokyo and haven’t had time to sit and write about their Tokyo Game Show experience. We DID however, receive a couple photos from the set up on Wednesday! Peep this!

Thursday and Friday are “Business Days,” in which we get to talk to people exclusively from the gaming industry, and see the booths in their entirety. On “Public Days,” Saturday and Sunday, Tokyo Game Show is open to the Press and Public. This is the time we do interviews and our fans get hands-on action with BattleBlock Theater!

OHHH!!!

We’ll be doing some LIVE STREAM ACTION from JAPAN from this link:

Celebrations Galore!

by

Hey everyone!!!

Lots of stuff has been happening in the Behemoth office! For starters, today is DAN PALADIN’s Birthday!!!

One of our programmers, JP brought a cute surprise for Dan…

Though it IS Dan’s birthday… he’s not in Japan for Tokyo Game Show. He’s actually in the office, working away at BattleBlock Theater…

IN CELEBRATION OF HITTING OUR LATEST MILESTONE OF HAVING OVER 2.5 XBLA MILLION CASTLE CRASHERS PLAYERS…

Dan would like to request that all of you practice your 2vs2 hacking and slashing skills! Fan “ImperfectLuck” will be setting up with us the FIRST EVER 2v2 TOURNAMENT soon with prizes to be won!

What a great time. We just had our 3rd Anniversary of Castle Crashers on August 27 during PAX Prime, though we were too busy to celebrate. The love for Castle Crashers is still brewing… OVER 2.5 MILLION PLAYERS strong on XBLA!!!

Things to do RIGHT NOW:

– Improve your CASTLE CRASHERS skills with a friend, against other teams

– LIKE our FACEBOOK PAGE

– FRIEND Hatty Hattington on Facebook

– Join the BEHEMOTH FORUMS (A new thread for Tournament details will be up soon)

THE EXCITEMENT IS BUILDING, so keep checking back on the DEV BLOG!!!

Tokyo Game Show!

by

Even though we just got back from PAX Prime, our tradeshow stops are not over. A couple members of the dev team: John, Ian and Kirit will be representing The Behemoth at Tokyo Game Show!

With last year’s record breaking attendance of 207,647–surpassing both PAX Prime and East combined, it’ll be the only place where we’ll have BattleBlock Theater demos on international waters for play! We’ll have the latest build running of our story mode on flat screens with a seating area reserved for players. Top screens will run game play so that attendees who are too shy to try, can watch and be captivated to free Hatty Hattington from doom.

For those going to Tokyo Game Show for the first time and are looking to buy merchandise, the layout is quite different than other trade shows. We’ll have our booth with BattleBlock Theater, Castle Crashers and our newest addition, Chonku-Chonku Machines! Three of them to be exact. There will be a separate “Sales Area” where we’ll be able to sell Behemoth items.

A month from now, we’ll be holding a booth at the San Diego Asian Film Festival, on the 22nd and 23rd of October. If you’re into great independent foreign films, check out SDAFF.org for more info!

Now sit back & relax, but expect a post with updates from TGS soon!!
