BattleBlock Theater, formerly titled "Game 3", is an upcoming co-operative / competitive platformer video game and the third production from developer The Behemoth following Alien Hominid and Castle Crashers. Set to be released in 2012, the company originally revealed an early playable version of the game at the Tokyo International Anime Festival on 16 March 2009 with a trailer of gameplay footage. The game has been announced for Xbox Live Arcade, with other possible formats yet to be confirmed. Programmer Tom Fulp, creator of Newgrounds and The Behemoth, is said to be focusing on other Newgrounds projects rather than playing a prominent part in this game's development.
Hatty Hattington, who has a square head, is adventuring at sea with his nameless friend who has a round head. All of a sudden a storm brews and destroys their boat, leaving them shipwrecked on an island, where they enter a mysterious theater. Hatty, greedy for gold, forces all the prisoners of the theater (including his friend, the player character) into deadly plays.
