The Behemoth Universe (SPOILERS)

[Dark Judas]

So, I've taken this to Behemoth and their forums, and no one really cared, so I thought I might as well bring it to a place that cared about story(spoilers for anyone who hasn't played theit games):

For those of you who don't know, the games Castle Crashers, Alien Hominid, Battleblock Theater, and Behemoth's new game Pit People all exist I'm the same universe, just at different points in time.
Their are a couple ways that the story can go through, but I think the most logical way the storyline goes is Alien Hominid happened first (I'll explain why later), Battleblock Theater happened next, Castle Crashers most likely came next, and Pit People is where the story is right now (Pit People is in Early Access, so no one except Behemoth has the actual full story).

I'll get to the things that are known for a fact(not in any particular order): Castle Crashers had to happen after Alien Hominid because when you're in the Alien Ship level, there is a beefy alien, but not just any beefy alien. He had the same bent antenna as the beefy alien from the end of Alien Hominid. Next, I know that Pit People of course comes after Battleblock Theater because at the end of Battleblock Theater, Honey Hug (the giant space bear) gets shot by a beam that came out of Hatty Hattington's hat, and that same scene is how Pit People begins with the Narrator talking about how the world went to chaos after the space bear hit the planet. Now, Castle Crashers happened somewhere extremely close to Pit People (I mean, there is a cutscene in it that has the same pooping owl and pooping bear from Castle Crashers, and has the same bridge that's used in the level they appear in). Outside the Pit, which is where you do PvP in Pit People, there are statues of the Painter boss and the Cyclops boss from Castle Crashers, which means they fought and won the arena before, which then provides proof that Castle Crashers is close to Pit People.

Now, time to get to things that make it "Tricky" to find out the actual timeline (there's a refrence not many will get but soon will :,)): Tricky the Clown is the last "princess" you kiss in Castle Crashers. In Battleblock Theater, the Narrator says that The original owner of Hatty's hat "might" have come from a cave where the "Nightmare Princess" was, and then, a picture of Tricky the Clown shows up, so that means one of three things. Either Tricky is extremely old, Castle Crashers takes place before Battleblock Theater somehow, or the Narrator just said that to mess with people. Also, at the end of Battleblock Theater, the Fat kid from Alien Hominid is on the ship firing a gun at the cats, so either he ended up on the S.S.Friend ship before his abduction, and he sailed his way to the city, or (and the one I like better), the aliens brought him back to the planet and somehow found his way to the ship. Also, something that I found peculiar is that both Pipistrellas father, Papstrella from Pit People, had a very similar Scepter to the one that the King in Castle Crashers had, and they both are just called "The King's Scepter." In Castle Crashers, you have to beat Pipistrello in order to unlock the King, so there is a big possibility that the King is either an ancestor or a descendant of Papastrella and Pipistrella.

Lastly, a couple of notes that might not mean anything, but I still consider them important to a degree: Considering you can be Hatty Hattington in Castle Crashers and you can get his head to use in Pit People, I believe that he didn't drown in the end because it just said that he sank to the bottom. Because of this, Hatty already has his hat in Castle Crashers, which means Castle Crashers had to happen after Battleblock Theater. In Pit People, you can get the four Knights heads (Helmets) for characters, so that could mean that the four knights aren't working for the King yet, or those are just the Helmets of the previous knights.

Tell what you think, and if you have anymore insight as to how the timeline might go, please share your thoughts below!

Edit: it's confirmed that Castle Crashers comes before Pit People because in Pit People, there is a statue of Hatty Hattington when he is beefy from Castle Crashers, and he is holding the shield and sword that he starts with in Castle Crashers, also confirming that he was alive during Castle Crashers, and that he also fought in the war.

what about half life 3

[SSJ Rick ム]

No ,In my opinions is yes:
Alien Homind-Battleblock Theater-Pit People-Castle crashers ,because?

In Alien Homind is Normally modern civilization ,later in Battleblock Theater bear is shot by Hatty ,later in Pit People bear falls to the Earth and this is The beginning of the apocalypse.And Castle Crashers ,after apocalypse with Pit People, people return to the Middle Ages

This is a very nice and thought out theory, I wish I had the chance to play battleblock theater but my computer wont run it so now it's stuck on my steam account to never be finished.

CyberMan then how do you explain how Hatty is dead in Pit People but not in Castle Crashers?

[Dark Judas]

Rapikol Castle Crashers happens after because the beefy alien was made as a final boss, and was taken at the end of Alien Hominid, and the beefy alien had a bent antenna in both Alien Hominid and Castle Crashers, so you know it's the same one.

[Pants Chicken]

Well, no matter how you put it, Pit People will allways have BBT be the one behind it due to the end of BBT, start of Pit People and the End of Pit People when you beat it for the first time.

Doesn't Hatty's lazer cause Alien Hominid to crash?

[Pants Chicken]

[Alix_Mandela]

funny idea: hatty died in battleblock theater, but he is revived in castle crashers using his statue on the insane store (ps4)

edit: i remember now, the knight is a playable character in Battleblock Theater
