What a week this has been. PAX and Castle Crashers coming at us back to back? Talk about a win-win situation — unless, of course, the former prevented you from becoming intimate with the latter.
While Castle Crasher‘s netcode remains bothersome, that’s not to say it’ll be impossible to get a few Destructoid groups going. The key word here is persistence.
If you’re eager to tackle the entire campaign from start to finish with a level one character, you’ve come to the right place. I’m not sure about the rest of you, but I have already invested 20+ hours in CC and I am still antsy just thinking about it.
