Everything Dan Paladin draws makes me laugh. I just can’t help it. The first time I saw that squiggly-mouthed, bug-eyed little bastard from Alien Hominid, I haven’t been able to look at a single frame from either of Behemoth’s games without cracking up. Seriously, I almost suffocated when I saw the cyclops boss from Castle Crashers give a Terminator 2 thumbs-up as he drowned in lava. My sense of humor isn’t refined, what can I say.
Needless to say, I damn near choked watching this trailer for their new game.
From the looks of it, Game #3 is going to be some kind of… something. It looks like blisteringly fast multiplayer platforming that’s both co-operative (two player jumps) and competitive (player type changing color of platforms.) Not quite as much variety and batshit insanity as Castle Crashers in the art department, but I think simplicity is a nice change of pace after Hominid and Crashers.
Man. That little dude holding up the gem to the other dude. That is… genius. I can’t even properly tell you why that’s funny.
