The Behemoth at PAX
On Thursday I’m driving up to Boston to hang out at the Behemoth Booth at PAX! I’ll be there Friday, Saturday and Sunday morning.
If you’re curious about what PAX is like, this thread has PAX photos from last year.
This year there will be new arcade cabinets for the Castle Crashers: Painter Boss Paradise DLC and BEHEMOTH, as well as cabinets for Alien Hominid HD, BattleBlock Theater, Alien Hominid Invasion and Back Off Barbarian (from Castle Crashers).
If you aren’t familiar with the Behemoth, it all started with making a console version of this:
Rolus in the Outskirts Kickstarter
I’d like to direct your attention to the Rolus in the Outskirts Kickstarter!
"Rolus in the Outskirts is an action-adventure that blends the gameplay of The Legend of Zelda, the humor of South Park and the heart of dead-end America. Meet endearing characters as you explore the ramshackle world of The Outskirts, risking it all in pursuit of a dollar-menu cheeseburger."
You can play the Rolus demo on Steam or play the web demo right here on Newgrounds!
