Alien Hominid HD – Page 4 – The Behemoth Blog

Hello, Seattle 👋 We’re crashing PAX West 2019!

August 6, 2019 by roxanne

Ah yes, Seattle. Land of the Space Needle, Starbucks, and PAX West! We’ll be there (at PAX West 2019, that is) from August 30th through September 2nd at Booth #1501, and you should come, too!

PAX West is a gaming convention of epic proportions, one where we always pull out all the stops and show up in a big way. The biggest of ways, in fact. And we’ll prove it.

Read on for a preview of the entire amalgamation of everything we’ll have with us this year at PAX:

Smash and bash your way through the kingdom with playable demos of Castle Crashers Remastered for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4! Both versions of the upcoming port will be available to play for all show attendees, so grab some friends or make some new ones at the show and get ready to crash some castles!

We’ll also have arcade cabinets for all of our games, from A to… P. Alien Hominid, BattleBlock Theater, Castle Crashers, and Pit People. Play all of your Behemoth favorites with an arcade classic twist! On top of all that, we’re also bringing Back Off Barbarian, which you’re going to want to start practicing ahead of time…

Back Off Barbarian is coming back to PAX with a new high score contest to challenge and delight! Practice your fancy footwork for a chance to win fame and fortune (more or less). We’ll have more details on the competition coming in a future blog post, but in the meantime get hoppin’!

STATUES! Your favorite Behemoth characters will come to (still) life as maybe-life-size-but-maybe-not-life-size statues that you can snap selfies with. Gluten, the Blue Knight, and a Barbarian will all be there, along with an on duty Cat Guard for… guarding purposes. While you’re at the show, you’ll also have an opportunity to share any photos you take with them on social media for a chance to win a goodie bag full of Behemoth prizes!

And of course, we’ll be setting up our Gift Shop so you can get your goods. Keep an eye out for a merch feature post in the upcoming weeks, but just know that we’ll be bringing an all new, all beef PAX exclusive to the show.

We know you’re excited, and we are too! But don’t worry, it’ll be here before you know it. See you soon!

Breaking Down Backward Compatibility

October 17, 2023November 11, 2015 by megan

Larry Hyrb (aka Major Nelson) and FLitz (from Smosh Games) recently came out with a video explaining the Backward Compatibility features for Xbox One. As you’ll see in the video, all of our Xbox 360 titles will be available for Backward Compatibility:

Alien Hominid HD, Castle Crashers, and BattleBlock Theater will all be accessible on Xbox One through Backward Compatibility. If you owned any of these titles on Xbox 360, then they will automatically show up in the “Ready to Install” section on your Xbox One when you sign in with the same gamertag.

The video explains several questions regarding Back Compat, including saves and cross platform online multiplayer. Here are some highlights:

-When playing on Xbox 360, make sure to cloud save so that your saves will transfer over to Xbox One.

-Your Xbox 360 Achievements get transferred and you can continue to unlock achievements when playing on Xbox One.

-You will be able to play online mutliplayer with Xbox 360 players if you’re playing through the Back Compat version on Xbox One.

-You’ll also be able to use all the advanced features in Xbox One, like “record that” or “save screenshot.”

For those who want to see the full list of Back Compat titles, check out the list HERE. If there’s a game you don’t see on the list, you can vote for or submit a game title HERE.
