Castle Crashers Hits 250k Players, Fixes Coming

Indie developer The Behemoth released Castle Crashers just over two weeks ago, and has told Gamasutra that the game has now reached 250,000 players, also revealing patch plans for the game and a 5-fold increase in Alien Hominid HD players due to CC's release.

"I'm pleasantly surprised that so many people are playing the game," says Behemoth lead artist Dan Paladin to Gamasutra, confirming that a quarter of a million players are now on the game's leaderboards. "I was optimistic and hopeful for Castle Crashers but I wasn't prepared for the reception it got."
