Castle Crashers On Xbox Live
Behemoth's new game, Castle Crashers, is now available for online purchase and download on Xbox Live. I loved their last game (Alien Hominid). I even had the opportunity to talk to Tom Fulp and Dan Paladin back when we were exploring the possibility of doing a Luchadores 5 videogame... and it became obvious that these guys are in it for the right reason: their love of gaming.
One of the greatest thing about downloadable games is it's allowed room for independent developers to explore unconventional ideas (both new and retro) without the need for huge financial commitments from large corporate publishers. Even before the downloadable gaming boom, Behemoth's been in the independent trenches. It's nice to see that they continue to push forward with great characters and universes with a touch of that retro gameplay. I look forward to seeing what they do next.
I love that catfish design. Brilliant!

I feel we are definitely coming from very similar places in very different industries. I love the spirit of independence!
Bongo:
Behemoth rocks. Good guys. Maybe there's something to be explored on the toy end of things? Without a doubt their mission and games are inspirational.

My entire weekend has been taken up with Castle Crashers and PAX (and the Behemoth team being there) and not much else. Kinda funny you guys wanted to get involved with them as one of them wants to get more into the toy side of things after how much fun the CC knight figures were apparently (missed out on them all, sold out quick).
The Behemoth is a big goddamn inspiration for the likes of me, aspiring developers that want to stick to indie/DIY.

Um, please get a Lucha Libra game made by these guys! It just makes too much sense!
