Got a chance to try it out at PAX, really looking forward to it. That art style just slays me, I absolutely love it.

I don't like Dan Paladin's tone. It sounds like "I can't even be bothered talking to you". Also his characteristics are that of a....................................................stone man.

Is it just me or does it seem like the guy is just making stuff up when Ryan asks what the characters are in the game?

This guy is showing the most telltale signs of having the explain the same things over and over again until it`s hard to think of small permutations for the same points, that it`s hilarious.

@Brendan: Yeah, but I think it's because he's still somewhat new to making games, and he seems pretty young too.

Listening to this guy talk about the game was so annoying, saying things like theres no other game that plays like it and stuff, looking at the footage it plays like a lot of games. Just look at how the guys played on that super mario brothers wii quick look.

Yep, I wasn`t knocking him or anything, just commenting on how clear the strain of a show like PAX is on someone not quite used to it.

Christ. Anyone else getting that crazy weed high feel from him? I find it almost intolerable to listen to people who sound like that. A pet peeve I suppose.

I'm going with the Dan Paladin is crazy tired and jetlagged thing. Loved Alien Hominid and Castle Crashers just hope this has stable online. A reason I didn't even play Castle Crashers online and just stuck to single player mostly.

Well, now we know why it takes so long and why Castle Crashers sometimes were very weird. They're all high as shit, all of the time.

I love this game. Voice over for the opening really hit's all the right notes. I wish the release date was soon but it's not soon. But that's okay, as long as it comes out sometime in the next year hopefully.

That's just how dan paladin is, if you watch the videos he has done with mega64 that's just the ways he is. Super chill, almost high swagger.
