Beta signups are live

It is a coop platformer that features alot of (optional) backstabbing and oddball humor. It is a whole lot of fun and is one of my favorite games of last generation, period. It is one of three reasons why I keep my 360 around, and if Perfect Dark HD and the Halos get ported to the PC I will have very little reason to keep the 360. And the best part - Steamworks integration.

If nothing else, watch the trailer for the 360 version:


Edit:

Sadly it looks like it is going to be a controller only interface. Using a mouse would make the map maker so much easier.

Awesome --- any word on a PS3 version, by chance?

Thanks for the heads-up, I signed up. Never been asked for the logon name of my account though (which is different than my profile name).

I have a shelf full of Castle Crashers figurines and a raging hard-on for that game, so I figure even sight unseen this is going to be great. Not to mention I'm in full support of getting things off the 360 and on to the PC.

I liked everything else from The Behemoth so I'll get this on release. Signed for the beta.

I got my "golden ticket" as they described it yesterday. So come Monday I should have it downloaded.

I'm going to be in the beta too! But I just got an email saying that they are pushing the date back. I'm excited for this even though I'm pretty clueless about the game but I've liked everything else they've done so I'm sure this will be fun too.

We should add each other on steam and we can be beta buddies. (that sounded better in my head)

I just got the push email, which is saddening but gives me time to do my yard work this week...I know Ack also got in, and I am up for multiplayer.

My steam user id is the same as here.

I got in as well. Happy to try some multi -- I'm in the PST time zone, and will likely be trying this out in the late afternoon - early evening.
