There’s only six more sleeps until Halloween! Earlier in the month, we announced our annual Halloween Art contest with a classic prompt: dress up The Behemoth chicken in a costume, because (as we warned you) the Dawn of THE BEHEMOTH is nigh!
Game 6, “BEHEMOTH“, was unveiled yesterday and will launch for Steam on Halloween, October 31! BEHEMOTH will finally allow you to become our iconic chicken mascot as you fly your flock of baby chicks to safety while dodging deadly fruits and peck-uliar obstacles soaring through the sky!
BUT…this post is about an art contest! And now it’s time for what we’re all here for: WINNING.
It’s been the spookiest of times, it’s been the artiest of times. And it’s been an absolutely incredible return to hosting contests here at The Behemoth!
We are so grateful to every single person who entered a masterpiece into our Behemoth Halloween 2022 Art Contest, and to everyone in our Discord server providing some good Halloween discourse. There was an unearthly amount of aliens running around in their first ever Halloween costumes this year: some adorable, and some horrifying.
Also, the amount of talent that you all have hiding up your sleeve? I don’t have any Twix up my sleeve like that! (I ate all mine already on Halloween…)
Before we get to it, we wanted to let you know; due to the influx of costumed aliens pouring out of the sky and crash landing on Earth, we have decided to add some extra winners to all the categories, and some extra prizes. If we were able to, we would give each and every human who entered some sort of prize. Maybe we’ll send each alien with a briefcase of stickers to scatter as they land to Earth.
So without further ado…
