We’re excited to head back to Boston in April for Penny Arcade Expo East 2016! With lots of luck, it will be much warmer than PAX East 2015. Remember how last year we caught the tail end of Snowmageddon? Brrrrrrr. Let’s cross our fingers for sunshine and blue skies.

We’ll be back in our same location by the escalators located on the far left of the Exhibit Hall BUT our booth number has been changed to Booth 4025!
 
If you get lost, you can just look for our usual circular banner hanging over the booth. We’re also bringing back our Gift Shop and custom built arcade stations for our games!
 
PAX East attendees may recognize our Pit People dodecagon of single player arcade demo stations, our Castle Crashers Remastered arcade cabinet, and our BattleBlock Theater arcade cabinet.

 

New to PAX East this year:
-Our Back Off Barbarian mini game in a new custom built arcade cabinet. This mini game is found in Castle Crashers Remastered on Xbox One and Castle Crashers for Steam.
 
-Pit People co-op couches that will use our portable arcade sticks. This is the debut of our 2 player co-op demo–never before seen at any show we’ve done thus far!

If you find yourself enjoying Pit People and can’t wait for the game release, you’ll be able to sign up for our closed beta while you’re at the booth. And you can quell your cravings for PP by getting one of our new Pit People tees:

The Behemoth will be at Day of the Devs!

dayofdevs

We’re excited to be a part of the third annual Day of the Devs! For one day only, we’re joining several other game developers to have a day of games, food, music, and art.

Day of the Devs will be held on November 7 from 3pm to 9pm at The Midway in San Francisco, CA. It’s an all-ages event and admission is free.

Portable

We’re bringing our portable arcade set up for Pit People and we can’t wait for you to play the demo! There will be one solo Pit People station and one multiplayer station for our newest mini-game in Castle Crashers, Back Off Barbarian. You’ll be able to play with up to four people so make sure to bring your friends or make some new ones!

Speaking of making friends, be sure to say hi to John and Anna. They’ll be there representing our studio and they can answer any questions you may have about our games.

If you’re planning on going, RSVP via this Facebook event page. If you can’t make it, then you can watch the live stream at Twitch.tv/DoubleFine on the day of the event!

Goodbye, PAX Prime 2015

Another show done! PAX Prime 2015 marks the end of our con and expo tour for this year. We had four rad days of PAX to show off Pit People, Castle Crashers Remastered, BattleBlock Theater, Alien Hominid HD, and our Gold Egg Project recipient, Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime!

Asteroid Base waves goodbye to PAX

Four days of meeting fans and making friends, then it was over. We waved goodbye to our booth and gave each other hugs to solidify the spread of the PAX Plague.

To see our daily recaps, you can peruse our posts from PAX Prime 2015. We’ve also organized our photos on Flickr into a collection: PAX Prime 2015 photos. (Because we like collecting things as much as you do)

One last note for you fine folks at home: We showed off more of our development in Pit People during PAX Prime, so keep an eye on our Pit People Facebook page for coverage!
