Valentine’s Day 2026 Art Contest: Send a Valentine to Hatty!

February is just around the corner, cupid’s arrows are flying throughout BattleBlock Theater, and it’s time for another Behemoth Art Contest! This year, we have a simple yet delightful prompt for you: Send a Valentine to Hatty Hattington! We’ve seen many requests for a Hatty art contest these past few years, so without further ado, let’s welcome the handsome gentleman to center stage and get this show on the road!

Don’t know where to start? Purrrhaps the cat’s got your tongue? It’s easy! Just think of a fun phrase like “I love you as much as those pesky Cat Guards love golden yarn!” Next, decide how you want to portray Hatty in your work of art. Other familiar faces from the theater and overall Behemoth universe can be included in your Valentine, but please make the focus on everybody’s best friend, Sir Hattington himself!

Here’s a handful of examples to get that inspiration flowing:

You got this! Now close your eyes, imagine all the love in the world for Hatty in your brain, then unleash it all onto a single Valentine’s Day card! Next, it’s time for what we’ve all been waiting for–reading the fine print rules and feasting our eyes upon the dazzling prizes!
