Castle Crashin' Bear

Did you know Castle Crashers has a development blog? Now you know! I especially like these videos of artist Dan “Synj” Paladin making his magic in Flash. Lookin’ good!

...oh jeez, who am I kidding, this entire post (and perhaps this entire site) is just a reason to post this damn awesome BEAR who’s wielding a fish as a weapon (one of the 22 unlockable characters in CC).

Castle Crashers is still slated for a Summer release.

    I am first. You are not.

    My fish is better. Solves Rubix Cube no problems.

    ohh…for box only?…damn micros…

  3. Felix said about 2 hours later:

    Remember how Okami looked incredible at first, then took ages to come out, and finally was sort of mediocre?

    =(

  4. ChuChuRocket said about 2 hours later:

    Hmm… a blog regarding the development and expected release of an XBLA game? I guess this blog will be up for a few years then, right?

    Doesn’t really matter, Mr.Driller is out now, so we won’t need another XBLA game for the rest of the year. <>

    Castle Crashers looks promising but Alien Hominid was a good game on all the other systems aside from the Xbox 360 because the controller sucks for twitch shooters… same problem trying to play Contra and any other 2d side scroller. Castlevania was the only one that I could bear to even play as a side-scroller through XBLA.

    Felix: Do you remember how OoT looked incredible at first, then took ages to come out, and finally was relly fun?

  6. Zeno said about 4 hours later:

    Do you remember how Zeno posted on TIGSource at first, then took ages to get breakfast, and finally had a ham omelet?

  7. Mike Hawk said about 5 hours later:

    Alien Hominid was little more than a Metal Slug clone, and very very overrated. I don’t have much in the way of expectations for Castle Crashers, but hey, if it isn’t dull and derivative I will be that much happier with it won’t I.

  8. Joola said about 5 hours later:

    Okami was great!

  9. ray said about 5 hours later:

    castle crashers will be the greatest game ever made

  10. Benzido said about 6 hours later:

    Okami was great. Anyone who says it’s mediocre has a piece missing.

  11. Dusty Spur said about 6 hours later:

    Okami’s dialogue scrolls at a kindergartener’s pace.

  12. KiddieFiddler said about 8 hours later:

    Didn’t really enjoy Alien Hominid too much, not my kind of game. Castle Crashers, however, looks like so much fun to me. On a related note, the videos of Synj drawing in flash gave me a boner.

  13. notderek said about 11 hours later:

    now this sure looks like a fun game. could be a classic. let’s hope.

  14. gustav said about 12 hours later:

    i hope synj dies and is replaced by a better artist.

    AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

  15. Derk said about 14 hours later:

    Gustav, please contain yourself.

  16. GirlFlash said about 15 hours later:

    okami was pretty as heck, but if everything in it happened a million times faster it would still be too slow =p

    as for castle crashers, I’m keeping an open mind, is that so hard guys? ;-)

  17. Adam Atomic said about 18 hours later:

    i love dan but i totally fell asleep watching that video :P still can’t friggin wait even a little bit for castle crashers!!

  18. Exoduster said about 19 hours later:

    Goddamnit you’re all missing the point.

    Nobody cares about Okami, Metal Slug, art or quality. The fact of the matter is, there is a bear who kills people with a fish. And that alone is worth my $10.

  19. Geoff said about 20 hours later:

    @Exoduster

    Amen brother, amen.

  20. Joseph said about 20 hours later:

    OMFG OKAMI FUCKIN RULED! >:O And I’m jealous of Dan’s highly modified version of flash :(

  21. branewalker said 1 day later:

    I’d pay 12 dollars for a bear who kills people with a SHARK.

  22. MrBig said 1 day later:

    The sad thing about Castle Crashers is that it is one of the several unique games that are slated for a 2008 release on XBLA… what a sad state. Expect a lot of shit in between…

    Ah well, off to play Ikaruga :-) M$oft seems to be holding on to it’s Japanese fan-base by a mere thread and stunts like this seem to work short term to keep the Japanese Xbox Players (or OtoBoxes as some call them… since they are a rare breed in the console market - Where Sony and Nintendo still reign supreme).

    At least Ikaruga will make me happy for a short time… until next week, when they release: “Yet-another-cloned-piece-of-shit-game”

    Cheers!

    OtoBoxes, ROLL OUT.
