Video: Castle Crashers Level Design, In Realtime
I've been waiting for Castle Crashers to come out for quite some time now. I was a huge fan of Alien Hominid, and 4 player side-scrolling beat-um-ups just seem right up The Behemoth's alley. The game is still not out, but the folks over at their developers blog threw us a bone, a video of them creating a level in real time. Well, sorta real time, it's been sped-up considerably. It's still very cool to watch them doodle. I'm not sure if they are using an in-house tool for this video, if so it looks fairly full featured.

Gorgeous! Patiently waiting for this one has not been easy. The speedpaint is cute. I hope they make more vids like this.
I like the background music they use for the first two minutes.
As a guy who occasionally makes games and animates with Flash I can tell you that's very fun to watch and interesting to see my own techniques aren't that far from what the pros use. Very awesome to see indeed.
