This Friday morning, March 21st, we’ll be closing off the registration form for our BattleBlock Theater Steam Closed Beta. We will start reviewing the applicants this week and start sending out acceptance emails so please keep your eye on your inboxes for that golden ticket. You know it’ll be pretty sweet! (Haha, see what we did there?) And for those who still need a bit of persuasion before signing up for the beta, check out our announcement trailer below:

 

 

Our tentative start date for Closed Beta of our Windows version of BattleBlock Theater Steam will be next week. A Closed Beta means you’ll need to register to get a beta key, but anyone 13-years-old and up are welcome to sign up!
 
Read all the rules and sign up here before it’s too late.

 

 

For those of you who are curious about other versions of BattleBlock Theater, we’re happy to announce that we are currently working on the Linux version of the game as well, but it will not be ready in time for the beta. The only confirmed version for Steam at this time is for Windows, and once the first PC version is out, we will focus our attention on the Linux version. Until then, don’t get too excited staring at the pot and waiting for the water to boil.

 

Day 3 of BitSummit

Well the Japan adventure is almost over for us. Our last day at BitSummit was yesterday! We took part in the awards ceremony as one of the sponsor presenters. John went up to represent and presented the award for Excellence in Game Design to Gangs Of Space. There were nine awards in total.

Finally, we started the tear down of our booth by giving away the booth sign of our logo to our biggest fan at BitSummit. Natsumi-chan came by every day of BitSummit every few hours with more friends. She couldn’t keep away and we didn’t want her to part without keeping a part of us.

Our group had a great time meeting everyone at the show! Thanks to everyone who came by to play our games and to say hello. (To see the rest of the photos from Day 3, click HERE.)

Day 2 of BitSummit

Our second day at BitSummit, and first public day, at BitSummit was a success! Over a thousand people attended the show and walked through the aisles of indie developers. For the public days, the room is double the size of business day as you can see in the picture below.

 

Here is the exhibit hall before the general attendees came in.

After our team got the groove of the show, we took turns walking around the show floor to check out some of the games at other booths.

The Kyoto mascot, Mayumaro, gave us another visit and this time we had a bow off between John and Mayumaro to see who could go down the lowest. We got out-bowed.
