BBT Steam Registrations Close Friday

bbtpostreg

This Friday morning, March 21st, we’ll be closing off the registration form for our BattleBlock Theater Steam Closed Beta. We will start reviewing the applicants this week and start sending out acceptance emails so please keep your eye on your inboxes for that golden ticket. You know it’ll be pretty sweet! (Haha, see what we did there?) And for those who still need a bit of persuasion before signing up for the beta, check out our announcement trailer below:

 

 

Our tentative start date for Closed Beta of our Windows version of BattleBlock Theater Steam will be next week. A Closed Beta means you’ll need to register to get a beta key, but anyone 13-years-old and up are welcome to sign up!
 
Read all the rules and sign up here before it’s too late.

 


 

For those of you who are curious about other versions of BattleBlock Theater, we’re happy to announce that we are currently working on the Linux version of the game as well, but it will not be ready in time for the beta. The only confirmed version for Steam at this time is for Windows, and once the first PC version is out, we will focus our attention on the Linux version. Until then, don’t get too excited staring at the pot and waiting for the water to boil.

 

New Arena Feature + Encore by Duckshark

Time to bust out your skills in the arena with a new playlist made by community user super tim2605! Go to the Featured Arena via Community Theater or Furbottom’s Features in BattleBlock Theater.

 

FeaturePost_DuckSharkAlso out today, we have an encore by special prisoner: Duckshark! This re-release was chosen because of our current trip to Japan for BitSummit. The origin of Duckshark is actually from an earlier trip to Japan for another event. Dan, our fearless leader and art director, took a look at the kanji 両替 and thought that the second Chinese character looked like a duck! Thus the Duckshark was born.

 

Don’t miss your second chance to get this Duckshark so you can do this:
