Geraint at GameSpew.com writes: "From The Behemoth, creators of Alien Hominid and Castle Crashers, comes this little gem of a puzzle-platformer.
Having grown up on early-90s platformers like Commander Keen and Cosmo’s Cosmic Adventure, and playing both of The Behemoth’s previous titles, it seemed only a natural choice to pick up the fabulous Battleblock Theater.
The Behemoth have advanced their status in the gaming world by finally adding actual speech to their games instead of just speech bubbles filled with witticisms and exclamations. They have employed the voice talents of Will Stamper of Newgrounds, StamperTV and OneyCartoons. Here, he is the much-loved-and-loathed narrator."
The Behemoth has taken to Twitter to announce that they are ready to announce their next game.

If its not Castle Crashers 2 then I don't care, at all. I've been wanting a sequel since the original 08 release.
Castle Crashers is just as fun today as it was a decade ago, writes Gazette gaming columnist Jake Magee.
Newgrounds fundamentally changed indie gaming and independent animation. Now it's struggling for the very reasons it was so influential -- creative freedom.
Interesting story. I haven't heard about newgrounds in years. The site was great and I hope the people that still frequent the site choose to support it. If not, you should give it a Viking funeral.
