"This is like if Little Big Planet weren't British and was more like Amped 3" --Ryan Davis


Welcome to Battleblock Theater where you can team up with a buddy to collect gems and yarn and basically just be a huge jerk to your friend. Sure, it has a single player mode. But why would you ever want to play this game single player? Basic gameplay is basically just go through the level and collect gems, 3 gems unlock the exit but there can be up to seven in a level, get the ball of yarn and collect those to get new weapons, try not to die, or instead use death as a crutch. But if I can be real with you here, the attraction isn't necessarily the gameplay, but instead is the story and constant in-level narration by Stamper.

So, yeah this is a Co Op LP. It's gonna be fun. I'm gonna rotate my Co Op partner sometimes!

I've actually gone ahead and set up an image gallery for custom user heads. Register and upload what you've got: http://battleblock.club/

~~Welcome to the Stamper Appreciation Station~~











Bonus???? What do you mean I already did chapter 7?

Playing on normal or insanity and will you + friend try to A++ everything?
Good luck and will love to see more content!

All insanity mode does is remove the checkpoints. In Co Op checkpoints are 100 percent useless (when you die it spawns you at your partner's location) so that doesn't actually make any difference.

Also gently caress no I'm not 100 percenting this. I'm opting to have fun instead. I am by no means a completionist.

I tried to A++ things with mico and unless you have a prepared route you'll usually screw up because the timer. Or because I've beaten myself senseless with a boulder.

Someone told me there were yams in this game. I watched your video and didn't see any yams. Will there be yams in a future update?

It will be fun to watch you all fail. And squirm. And generally screw each other over. This coming from experience with co-op. Good lord this game is fiendishly simple, yet simply fiendish.

Okay, I didn't actually watch the video until now. I never seen poo poo go THAT crazy while playing. One of you must've been doing something fun with net limiter or the game updated since I played it because the extent of my lagging woes are self-inflicted boulderectomies.

Oh neat, I didn't put those two together. Not only this, but most secret levels also take place behind a single isolated bush on some weird assed corner of the map. I think stamper also has a couple lines regarding the cyclo-shrimp, that were supposed to clue me in on what you just said but I didn't think too much about it.

I had no idea you could bounce on those acid bubbles.

Man, I can't wait to see when the game gets really bastardly later on.

EDIT: The hand grenade is the best weapon. So simple and effective. Just lob it at what you don't like and make it go away.

The up push is unnecessary. While you can shove people, you can almost always get around the problem by skull yumping or by employing some environmental hazards. Plus you can stay in control while moving whereas the toss just sorta dumps you. Basically I play like an ant climbing all over everything indiscriminately in the vague hopes of getting something neat and it works out most of the time.

Well, this is some proper horror. The poor kitties just want their theater back, and only the hat can save them, but not even the hat can save them.
