Developer The Behemoth has been toiling away on its latest, Battleblock Theater (http://joystiq.com/game/battleblock-theater), for a while now, and all we've learned about the game has come from a few scant glances (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/07/17/in-fighting-to-win-in-behemoths-battleblock-theater/) at various industry events. But the game is finally code complete (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/07/17/battleblock-theater-passes-microsoft-certification-slated-for/), so the developer is being a little more forthcoming with details.
On the latest company blog, the team goes through the numbers on the new game: There will be over 200 characters to unlock (compared to Castle Crashers' 30 (http://castlecrashers.wikia.com/wiki/Playable_Characters)), over 200 levels to play through, and over 10 "weapontools" to use. There will also be a full slate of online multiplayer modes, Achievements and avatar awards to earn, and a "soundtrack created by well-known artists and members of our community" (that community being Newgrounds (http://www.newgrounds.com/), which was created by The Behemoth co-owner Tom Fulp).
The dev has also shared a video (above) of artist Dan Paladin working on some of the creations in the game. The Behemoth promises more announcements later this year - here's hoping they'll finally be able to bring this long-awaited game to players soon.http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif (http://www.joystiq.com)Battleblock Theater will have 200 playable characters, and at least one duck (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/08/04/battleblock-theater-will-have-200-playable-characters-and-at-le/) originally appeared on Joystiq (http://www.joystiq.com) on Sat, 04 Aug 2012 22:00:00 EST.
