Castle Crashers

Born out the popular Flash website Newgrounds, indie developer The Behemoth released Alien Hominid, an homage to arcade run-and-guns like Metal Slug. While finding modest success, their next game would take on a different classic genre: the beat-em-up. Initially titled "Ye Olde Sidescroller", it was eventually re-titled Castle Crashers, and released in 2008 for Xbox Live Arcade to great acclaim.
