Despite really enjoying Castle Crashers (Red Knight for the win!) Gamervision is saddened by the game's lackluster online play. It's broken, and unless you find yourself in a perfect situation you aren't going to be able to get four players to join a game together online. They were shocked by this when the game was released, and so were the developers. They submitted it with no problems, no issues, and when reports started circulating about the game being broken they, well, shot diarrhea all over the place in confusion. This is an interview Gamervision had with Tom Fulp, Newgrounds founder and game coder, where he talks about this, the game's inspiration, and more.
