PAX Boston 2012 Prep

In less than a month we’ll be heading to Boston for the annual Penny-Arcade Expo, or PAX. Getting ready for a show like this usually starts 3-4 months before, with booth designs, merchandise prep, and in our case, making sure all the arcade cabinets still work. Here’s a shot of the latest design for our booth this year. We’re bringing a huge projector screen somewhere around the 140″ range to blast some of our games up into the sky using the power of light. 

Did you know last year we were the grand prize winners of “Best Gaming Booth” for every single show we attended? Crazy right? We didn’t even know there was a competition going on. To continue our dominance for this year, we are bringing both our Castle Crashers and BattleBlock Theater arcade cabinets with us, and a surprise! Deep underground at The Behemoth Headquarters, we are working on a  super secret new arcade cabinet that has the potential to possibly blow your mind, if we finish it at least. Finally,  we will also be bringing our PAX Boston exclusive t-shirt design as seen below.

We’ll have more updates about our booth as we get closer to the show, which in case I haven’t mentioned yet runs from April 6th to April 8th in Boston, Massachusetts. We hope to see you there.

Tokyo Game Show Recap

BATTLEBLOCK THEATER UPDATES:

Hey everyone!

I know you’ve been hearing a lot from me on the Dev Blog lately. In case you didn’t know, I didn’t go to Tokyo Game Show because I’ve been in the office with the majority of the team, working and putting our focus on BattleBlock Theater. My left thumb is red and sore, and my reflexes for my right hand are quickening from all the play testing I’ve been doing!! (I am typing with these fingers as a display of my love for you fans)…

I’m also trying to plan fun things for you guys to partake in, and if you have any suggestions, feel free to let me know!

 

TOKYO GAME SHOW RECAP!

For the devs that did go to TGS, they’ve made me extremely jealous on all the action I missed out on! It was their first time putting up cameras for live streaming. If you watching at the right time, you got to see the Behemoth chicken do a little dance!
