BattleBlock Theater- Hail to the King, baby!

KotH sGreetings,

I hope some of you got a chance to check out BattleBlock Theater at ComicCon last week! What did you think?

We’ve been having fun coming up with all sorts of new ways to throw kick discombobulate toss punch interact with your friends and this mode started to take shape.  It’s like a king of the hill game- claim the special golden blocks as your own and do anything you can to keep the other guys off. I mean, look. These are your blocks and you are the king of them. You can’t let just anybody come and stand on your blocks. Give those interlopers the royal treatment. And by royal treatment I mean uppercut them into some spikes or push them into some nice lava. That is the sign of a true king.

If you missed us at ComicCon, you’ll have another chance to check out all the new features in BattleBlock at Penny Arcade Expo in a few weeks!  Hit the jump for some kingly screenshots.

Castle Crashers ready for submission

castlestat

Dear Behemeisters,

Just a quick note to update you on Castle Crashers for PSN’s progress. After months and months of rigorous testing, we’re beginning the FINAL submission process! We still can’t estimate a release date, as this submission process is highly variable and involves yet more verification by Sony.  We will, of course, let you know when we have an idea of the date so you can put it on your calendars.

We are very pleased with the way Castle Crashers for PS3 has turned out and we look forward to playing with you soon!

Word up to all the XBLA Castle Crashers players out there! The Behemoth would never had made it this far without the overwhelmingly positive response Castle got from players on XBLA. You’ve shown a lot of love for this game and we want to share that love with as many players out there as possible.  Behemoth loves you and we haven’t forgotten about you either.

-Tom
