Anyone else playing in the Pit People beta on Xbox One? The beta there runs until Sunday and then there is a Steam beta running from September 28th to October 5th (might get extended, XB1 beta did). You can sign up for the Steam beta here: http://pitpeople.com/beta/steam/ It's from The Behemoth, the same folks who brought us Castle Crashers and BattleBlock Theater. (Yes, Will Stamper is the narrator). Fast-paced, turn-based, co-op adventure you'll quest and explore, find awesome loot, customize your fighters, and recruit strange species! A strategic game of positioning Single player, 2 player co-op, and up to 4 players for 2v2 Coming to Xbox One and Steam Early Access on January 13th 2017 Trailer 1 Gameplay (worth it for the full intro) I can't stand strategy games, but this game is so completely silly I am falling in love with it!
It's coming out in Early Access on the 13th of January 2017 ($15 in EA, $20 after)! I am so excited for this game, it's the most pure fun I've had gaming in a long time. http://blog.thebehemoth.com/2016/12/12/pit-people-early-access-in-2017/
Pit People/The Behemoth AMA right now! https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/5nkygn/we_are_the_behemoth_developers_of_battleblock/
It's completely ridiculous A lot of the strategy is trying to keep the one with the funniest name/best hat alive so you can capture it!
Will Stamper is easily one of my favorite narrators ever. Everything he's in instantly becomes twice as funny. I found Pit People through a youtuber I watch and immediately bought it. The whole premise is silly and light hearted but the mechanics and gameplay are still deep enough to be fun. Tbh, The Behemoth hasn't make a game I didn't like. Highly recommended
