Happy Birthday, Alien Hominid!

by

Alien Hominid 2 Happy birthday to our adorable Flash buddy, Alien Hominid! A short flash version of the game first came out on Newgrounds in 2002 and has been played over 20 million times! Since 2002, we’ve brought the game to numerous consoles including Nintendo GameCube, Playstation 2, Xbox, Game Boy Advance and finally Xbox 360.
 
In honor of this anniversary, we have unlocked a few special items in BattleBlock Theater so you can play as the alien or FBI guy!

Here’s how to unlock these characters:
 
XBLA Players:
–Alien : If you own Alien Hominid HD on Xbox 360, then you will automatically unlock the Alien in BattleBlock Theater once you’ve received an achievement in both games. This is forever-ever.

 

–FBI Agent1 : Just head towards an online area in BattleBlock Theater and this prisoner will be freed. This is a limited time only! Get it within the next few days of this post.

 

Steam Players:
–Alien : Since Alien Hominid is not available on Steam, this is one of the rare chances to get this prisoner into your entourage! Get it soon!

 

–FBI Agent1 : This friendly foe is also available for a limited time on Steam. Get it soon and battle it out with the Alien in the arena!
 
Unite the extraterrestrials with the felines!

Here it is! Can you feel the excitement that is National Underwear Day? Weeee can!

 

To show you how excited we really are:

Oh…how embarrassing. Well don’t let that image soil–I mean–spoil your urge to go. Go where? Go wear this proudly in the Theater! All you need to do it load up BattleBlock Theater and Mr. Peabody will unlock. But don’t wait too long to do it. It’s not healthy.

 

You have less than a day before we clean up the Theater and remove that stained prisoner for another day.

 

Battle it out in the Arena with Snail!

We have good news! Blocketeer and Moose will stay up over the weekend, but we’re giving you another special unlock today too!

 

FeaturePost_SnailTo fit the sluggish summer we’re experiencing due to humid San Diego weather, we’re unlocking Snail! All you’ll need to do is load up BattleBlock Theater and make your way to an online area. Getting the Snail will be that fast!

 

Just make sure your Snail doesn’t get a-salted in the featured Arena playlist!

 

We are keeping the Behemoth created playlists as the Arena Feature at this time since the Arena Playlist Creation Contest is still open until August 15th.

 

Reminder: Special unlocks in Steam will not be available to sell or trade until after they are no longer available to unlock in game. Click here for the specifics on that.
