Dan: Personally, I'm very happy with the price. Now that it's out, we're happy with it. Tom: Yeah, it's worth the points. Dan: If you think about it, Alien Hominid was a retail title and this game is bigger than that. So, to pay fifteen dollars for a game that is bigger than our retail title is pretty good. It doesn't sound like the community is really up in arms about the games pricing.
Dan: Everyone seemed really nice about it. Tom: We actually benefited from that whole Microsoft point rumor that came out of Japan. Dan: That was a curious thing, because we weren't even deciding the price at that time. We've been hearing about some Castle Crashers problems where people can't connect to their friends over Xbox Live to play co-op. True, the problem could have been blown out of proportion, but there are legitimate cases of connection problems nonetheless.
What are you doing to fix this? Tom: This was something that never came up in testing and now that there are problems with the Live release we're looking into it. We had six hour play sessions and nothing ever came up. Dan: When we went through testing, Microsoft approved all our network code and we had no problems at all. There are those things in real world scenarios that we couldn't account for. Just look at Call of Duty 4 when it came out, you couldn't play for a week straight and now it's fine.
So, you acknowledge that there are bugs that need fixing? Tom: We have some bugs that have been fixed. Dan: Yeah, there are certain network settings where, if you're in a very specific network environment, it won't work with another person's connection and that's what's happening. But that's something we're already addressing by working with Microsoft to get a patch out as fast as possible.
Will the patch release in a few days, a few weeks or a couple months? Tom: We're hoping soon, as soon as possible. Though, there isn't any official time frame yet. Dan: We're trying to get it out as soon as possible, because we know it's important to people.
I've played through half the game with a friend online and it runs fine. And when it works, it runs like it's local. But there's those certain people whose connections we have problems with and that's exactly the problem we're onto. It's that certain connection where two people just don't work, but we're on it.
The good news is that it'll work Finally, we have to ask, what's next for The Behemoth and when will we hear about it? Tom: Yeah, we're a bit gun shy because we don't want to torture people with the long release wait. We aren't saying anything now, but know something is definitely in the works.
All products recommended by Engadget are selected by our editorial team, independent of our parent company. The game also features local and online cooperative play. There are also two minigames: Arena, where the player tries to survive waves of enemies, and All You Can Quaff, a button-mashing game where the player eats as much food as possible.
Castle Crashers includes 28 playable characters. Defeating the Husky Barbarian early in the game allows players to use the Grey Knight, who can in turn be used to unlock Stove Face.
Five other characters can be unlocked by participating in the arenas, and four characters can be unlocked by playing as them. Alien Hominid is also a playable character, but can only be unlocked by having at least one achievement in Alien Hominid HD. Six more characters were also released in various Packs. The game was programmed by Tom Fulp and the art was done by Dan Paladin. Music was created by Newgrounds members. Castle Crashers is also the frequent subject of parodies and tributes, including Castle Crashing the Beard , a Tank Award nominee.
Additionally, a Collection dedicated to Castle Crashers was created. The game currently has average scores of 82 and 85 on Metacritic for the Xbox and PlayStation 3 respectively. Progress in experience and game completion is tracked for each of the playable characters separately.
New playable characters can be earned by completing the game with a character, or by completing the arena battles. Characters can also be unlocked through downloadable content. The game progression in terms of what levels are unlocked is defined by the hosting player; however, each player can continue to gain levels and acquire wealth, weapons, and animal orbs as they progress with the rest of the party.
Two mini-games are also present: an Arena mode similar to the arenas in the main game where the player attempts to survive through several waves of enemies, and " All You Can Quaff ", a game where players compete to eat the given food quicker than their opponents by mashing the X and Y buttons. It is a 4 on 4 style mode with variable courts that are unlocked in campaign play.
In the Remastered version for Xbox One and Steam, "All You Can Quaff" is removed and replace with a new minigame, " Back Off Barbarian ", a game where you need to work together with friends to not get caught by the barbarians.
