Buh-bye Monsters; Hello community playlists!

Welcome to another exciting week of BattleBlock Theater Furbottom’s Features! This week we’re updating both the Co-Op feature and the Solo feature since we had a month of Monster Playlists.
 
We’re done talking about us for a bit, so let us talk more about you. It’s fun to see what ideas the community comes up with using the built in Level-Editor and so here we are back to highlighting some of those awesome levels:
 
Cooperative Playlists in Furbottom’s Features
 
XBLA Co-Op Feature
Togetherwefail3 by leveldesignguy (Re-featured)
Difficulty level: Intermediate
 
Steam Co-Op Feature
Testing by Byrone
Difficulty level: Intermediate

 


 

Solo Playlists in Furbottom’s Features
Our Behemoth-made Monster Playlists took over the Furbottom’s Features slots for a bit, so we decided to bring back the solo playlists that did not get the full 4 week run. BBT players have two more weeks to try out these solo features, especially if you didn’t get to the first time!
 
XBLA Solo Feature
GiganticBlock by QuirkyTurky
Difficulty level: Expert
 
Steam Solo Feature
Orange Blocks by Getlucky12341
Difficulty level: Intermediate
 
FeaturePost_THIEFCompleting all the levels in any of these playlists will be an amazing feat and you’ll be rewarded when you finish all the stages!
 
Wait! Are you being rewarded or has it been stolen?! The Thief is here to rob the spotlight this week in BattleBlock Theater. Finish Furbottom’s Features Solo or Co-op playlist to capture this bold bandit before she bolts.

 

 

A momentous performance in our Monster Playlists!

Reminder: The Furbottom’s Features will remain the same until the end of the year, so you’ll have all winter break to get the Monster!

Prepare Yourself for a Momentous Performance!
 
Just about any BattleBlock Theater regular can tell you that each and every week we uphold a tradition first put in place by the great P.Furbottom, something we fittingly call, “Furbottom’s Features”. We choose one playwright from the Community Theater and place one of their creations on high as an example of great stage design… or playwriting…or level design–really, whatever you want to call it. It’s a really great thing that we love to do, where everybody wins and has fun and is happy.
 
But, uh, this week we aren’t doing that.
 
Instead, as a gift we made especially just for everybody, we would like to present two playlists from The Behemoth… now on Steam for the first time!
 
Featured Solo/Coop Playlists:
“MomentumMonster” and “ComentumMonster” by Mr H Hattington (On XBLA) and FurryBottom1 (On Steam)
 
Difficulty Level: Expert
This is not your mommy’s playlists – this is for the rage in “outrageous”, the ouch in “ouch-this-hurts”. Think hard, play quick, and don’t give up. Above all, remember that victory is that much sweeter when it’s drenched in sweat and tears.

WebFront_BBTSteamUpdate

Happy Monday, Everyone!
 
Today, we’re excited to bring you an update with a couple big changes in BattleBlock Theater. One of the additions could potentially affect over 143 million people — according to the 2013 census of the Russian population. (Or even more since we’re not accounting for those people who are learning or have learned the language living outside of the country!) Here’s what we’re looking at in BattleBlock Theater Update 1.2:
 
Russian Language Support
We’ve been working on this for a while now and thank our Russian fans for their patience and continuous support. Еще раз большое спасибо за вашу поддержку!
 
Update to the Online Menu UI
This will improve searching and viewing different types of available online games.
 
Minor bugs fixes
 
We will continue working on ways to improve the game and we are grateful for your support & understanding. If you experience any unexpected issues after this update, please feel free to let us know in the forums or in a support ticket that you can create here: Create a Support Ticket
 
Thanks again and happy holidays!
