Above is the first glimpse of The Behemoth's latest project, an as-yet unannounced game that should be revealed in full very soon. In fact, the studio is suggesting that before the date of March 18, the very first trailer will make itself known. Until then, all we have is this above image, which says very little, but is still undeniably cute.
A robot in a hat looks longingly at a gem while tears fall from his eyes. Behind him are other, more sinister robots, and what may be a cash register is also in shot. Obviously the videogame is about a robot who wants to buy jewelry, but cannot afford it. Probably. We don't know.
It's really cute though, right? Look at the cute little robot!

What is it with meeee..
I'm stoked to hear more.
Will we have to wait 6 months for a patch?
Will it be hyped to DEATH?
Well I think that last one is already happening, shame about CC's brokeness as it soured me on the behemoth and I probably won't buy another game from them again.
:]
also, i really don't know why that picture makes me think irish drinking game with robots..
It's really Behemoth's games that make me sad about my lack of 360...
Don't do it little robot!
You'd be right about it earning the hype, and the multiplayer glitch wouldn't have been that bad if that was the only problem. But what about the deleting characters glitch? That really ticked people off, losing their characters they spent hours grinding.
or someone is bribing him to use his robots to do some sort of dirty deed.
could be a strategy game in a little town(like the old FF towns)where you are some sort of tax man and you use robots to persuade people into paying there taxes by destroying there plants and burning down houses ETC..
The game takes place in different types of fast-food restaurants, usually manned by blockheads who are sad about their lives and for whom serving you represents the latest in a long series of soul-crushing life experiences. These restaurants specialize in serving specialized cakes that are shaped like life-sized devil-bots, but their marketing departments suck, so they have TONS of back stock going bad. The game is played from the first-person perspective. You, as James Pie-tin-hand, are tasked with two things: throwing hats in order to cast diagonal shadows over peoples' faces, and then covering as much of the unsold robot-cake overstock as possible with different types of crystals so you can take photos with your laser-guided cameraface. With your hands made of pie-tins, you hoist up heavier and heavier crystals and throw browner and browner hats in order to get the best picture. It's like Pokemon Snap except that, instead of Pokemon, you're shooting partially obscured images of sculptural specialty cake overstock with sad blockheads in the background, with bonus points awarded for making them cry by tossing hats on them in a way that makes diagonal shadows. Otherwise, totally the same game.
Paladin's such a ripoff artist. I've seen this concept a million times.
