Castle Crashers: [Insert untypable squeals of joy here]

By BFeld

Dan Paladin ranks up there as the world’s biggest tease. His previous game, Alien Hominid was an awesome sidescrolling arcade shooter, with difficulty reminiscent of the original Contra and a charming art style to boot. But that was just a warm-up for his newest opus, Castle Crashers. The isometric sidescroller could very well be a long-lost brother of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game. Both have four different characters, each with their own unique fighting style, and cooperative play to increase the degree of awesomeness to dangerous levels.

The above video demonstrates some of the amazing animations and moves that games showcases, as well as a possibly massive overworld map, and the leveling system in the game. Screw GTA and Metal Gear Solid; Castle Crashers is my most-anticipated game of 2008.

    I played this at Wondercon. It was even better than I thought it was going to be.
