Check Out a Behind the Scenes Look at BattleBlock Theater's Artwork Drawn in 800% Real-Time

The Behemoth, the guys that brought you the legendary co-op side-scroller, Castle Crashers, have in the works their newest title, BattleBlock Theater. This game is as classic a modern, arcade, co-op, puzzle platformer will ever get, so of course people are excited to see what this game holds for us.

In the game, players are forced to “put on a show” for a group of evil cats, as well as an evil hat (whatever that means), while working together with your co-op partners to try and escape your playtime enslavement. Jumping platform to platform to avoid deadly traps and obstacles, players can also collect wearable items that help add a customizable element to the puzzle game’s already bursting cartoonish charm.

Gamers these days normally overlook how long some of these environments take to design and produce, so it’s nice to appreciate the artistic work alone from time to time:
