Me and my friends had this theory that the Orange princess was killed some time during the game. During the painter boss fight you see pictures of her with a sword in her back, and every time she's on screen alone she doesn't make a sound or seem to stand up, She just lays there. Finally the fact that she turned into a clown at the very end. Maybe as some kind of last laugh by the evil wizard.

with the boss room details it implies this wasnt the first time the evil wizard tried taking over a kingdom,in the past he most likely succeeded elsewhere

The dragon entry was actually referring to the fact that the Fire demons could potentially be baby dragons

Finally a iceberg video about castle crashers

Man, that crystal theory makes the game so much more disturbing. Like you’re killing all these people that are your allies, at the end of the day. But it also explains why the skeletons attacked you if they’re the lava town villagers… and I guess we could say the necromancer revived them, but he couldn’t have brought back all of them. It also explains why all but one regular enemy is playable.

God, this game was my childhood. Nostalgic to see people talking about this lol

4:33 LFG Is actually a youtuber who did a lot of Castle Crashers character rankings awhile ago. Hope that helps clarify why that's on the iceberg!

I think within the Under Water section at 4:09 means to reference Waterflame (composer for some music) and Acid Lightning (being some sort of content creator for the game) as being inspirations for the four elements the knights hold (Water (Ice), Flame (Fire), Acid (Poison), Lightning (lightning lol)). That’s probably what that entry is for.

about the last entry, we can see that the area leading up to the crystal castle place that houses all the endgame bosses and the castle itself are full of skeletons and pieces of torn up houses, sheds, and other structures. this probably means there was once a kingdom next to the ice kingdom that has since been destroyed presumably by the wizard and turned into his own lair.

Only the real OG's remember Castle Crashing the Beard

I grew up with Castle Crashers on the PS3 version and I remember the scissors being there And then I played the PC port later on and I was questioning if I had a mandela effect or if it's rare And now I know it's PS3 exclusive

God knows how much I needed some informative Castle Crashers content for that sweet nostalgia itch, amazing video

Tbh the red knight's constant zap magic is pretty unique to me so I thought they were the leader Also red usually is in other media

I can honestly see the Crystal theory being true as it can actually explain why you unlock enemies after most play throughs ( granted the real reason is probably because playing as the enemies is a cool concept but it’s cool to think about )

you exclusively have made me invested in Castle Crashers.

you should do something like this but for battleblock theater, that and castle crashers used to go hand in hand back in the day

I have had a theory for a long time that Alien Hominid, BattleBlock Theatre, and Castle Crashers are all connected. This is because the Alien Ship in Alien Hominid is seen being shot down by a large beam, possibly being Hattingtons after the credits of BBT. Although in AH it is implied that the FBI shot it down, it could’ve just been an alarm that alerted people of Alien Invasion. In Castle Crashers, we also can obviously find both Hattington and his Golden Whale pet, along side the Aliens in their ship that were identical to the ones in AH. There is more to the theory, but I don’t have time to explain it in depth. I might make a KZfaq video on it at some point in the future though.

A 17minutes Reckerless video. There is no better way to finish the day

Castle Crashers to this day is my favorite game and im playing the game every year. Seeing this iceberg was a huge pleasure, and i guess i will start playing the game again.

LFG - it's actually ment to be for a castle crashers KZfaqr I watch and I put it their as a joke Acid lightning - used to be the name of the creator of Simple Sights Hatty and crystal connections - hatty's hat is glowing and red, which is eerily similar to the crystal when under the evil wizard's control

On that last theory. Always thought that was the queen. I mean, the princesses probably had a mother right? With the chair being there as well, the evil wizard could have kidnapped her along with the throne with the levitation magic used to take the crystal.

If you're looking for ideas on Castle Crashers challenge runs, I think I might have an idea, one that's not even too painful. It might also showcase some of the lesser used weapons in the game. The premise is that you must switch to and use every weapon you find during the campaign. This can be through weapons that are plainly in sight, dug up or bought. Making sure you start with a shovel might also make it a bit more fun. Here are also some extra rules ro spice it up. - You can never go into the moose-frog to change your weapon. - Whenever you enter a shop, you must buy the weapon there if you haven't already. - To prevent it from just being a magic run, you can't invest more than five points into magic. (Just to unlock the horizontal projectile spell). Given castle crashers rather imbalanced weapons, this could be a fun run to showcase the ignored weapons while indulging in some hijinks from potential dropped weapons from enemies.

this game is my childhood and my favorite of all time; i would die happy if they ever released a part 2

I think that the skeleton and the crown where supposed to be the orange's princess corpse and crown, and yeah, I know that we don't see the princess with a crown but i do think that the plan was to get the princess killed (mainly for the art that we can see in the paintings in the painter's boss fight) and because I'm pretty sure that Dan said once that the idea was for the mage to kill the princess unleashing the fury of the knights

What a guy, I’m replaying castle crashes again on a fresh account and this jus opened my eyes. Been rocking with this game for over 10 years now good to see guys still playing it.

Is it me or is castle crashets having a small resurgance

Correction: 1:15 The PS3 version also only has the pink knight and blacksmith as DLC (+ hatty) the other characters are unlocked during insane mode. The Switch, PS4, and Xbox One versions have Hatty unlockable for gold in the Insane Store. Alien is technically also DLC for Xbox 360 because you have to get an achievement in Alien Hominid to unlock him. Correction 2: 2:57 You can play as many Castle Crashers characters in Battleblock theater! These include Barbarian, Snakey, Rammy, etc. You can also play as Alien Hominid characters in Battleblock such as the FBI agents, Alien, and more. Also… GOOD VIDEO MAN!!!

This game means a lot to me. Playin it for hours and hours with my lil bro and friends. Great video dude 🤘

note that the behemoth chicken pet increases all stats, which is pretty gud.

ive been looking for a castle crashers iceberg and finally found one, thank you bro and great video!!!

RIP hatty hattington,saddest death ever,i couldn't belive what had happened when i first saw the final level and the tragic cutscene that came with it,the final level was a mix of *awesomeness* of the music,the hard timings,and getting to the final jump...when you finished the level,you would go to hatty's room where it was already too late,you took him and ran outside to see all your friends fighting the guards and the storm just adding more tension to get to the ship,when you got to the ship,you thought there was hope,but you slowly realized that there wasn't,the ending was unexpected because i thought he would return to life but sadly no,the hat corrupted him so i hope there will be a sequel to the game or atleast some explanation or some video.

16:17 although a silly game the idea now it’s intriguing to imagine that this floating castle of evil went around to collect crystals and bait in the form of princesses but were stopped only thanks to these knights, I mean armour was normally standardised so it’s also a nice idea for the necromancer having a similar design to our armour. I am just glad to see this game again, also I forgot hegreen knight had a special attack like that! And more interestingly, the wiki states that the Arabian/sand knights can also do a unique attack in the form of the sand twirl. I don’t know how and if it’s real. But it’s also interesting, totally not happy as the green knight was the knight I played at the start and the only one so far that I made him reach level 99. I tell you the insane volcano solo was a grand milestone indeed

Super interesting ^^ thank you for making this!!

i love this!!!! i just replayed castle crashers recently i was so happy to see this in my recommended, good video!!!

One thing I've always wondered was why the iceskimo starts with one of the strongest weapons in the game, probably because they had to give them a weapon the iceskimo enemies use but didn't want to nerf it cause it's really far in the endgame

its so nice seeing new castle crashers content

Another great video!

I'm excited for this

Good video bro-ham keep’em coming

Great video 👍👍👍👍👍 learned alot of interesting things

Yooo! That is dope! Have you considered doing an iceberg video about other "The Beheamoth" games?

15:26 I'm just convinced that he was so into cosplay, that even death didn't stop him from acting out the sock puppet.

Love ur channel

great video

I remember as a kid asking for a physical version of this game for Christmas. I had no idea it was digital only and instead, “Santa” brought me Microsoft points cards with a note explaining me that I had to buy it in the online store and download it myself hahaha

3:02 I read: "Blacksmith is Purple Guy" for a moment lol.

YES finna be a good video

For that last theory about the dead king, I have an idea for it: When you make your way to the Wizard's Castke in the "Wizard's Castle Takeoff" level, there is ruins of a village. Maybe this was the Wizard's village until he turned evil, killing the king, destroying the village, and taking over the area.

This iceberg was poggers Castle Crasher-sama

And to think it was an Xbox Arcade title, absolutely absurd amount of detail and thought put into it. Nice vid, still here learning new stuff about Castle Crashers all these years later

i like the conehead industrial castle theory.

This game is so well done I still own the 360 digital copy and my progress still, I think its time for a new run :)

4:41 Wasn’t expecting to see my favorite game appear in a video about my second favorite game

This is awesome

13:20 That is a reference to the Castle Crashers logo because of the colors, but it's also a reference to an early joke text in Alien Hominid which is a store titled "Castle Of Crap"

good content mang

you really should've mentioned the full map theme unheard in the final game, and that it was made by stamper, who voiced hatty. also johnnyutah drew all the character select art.

This is epic

9:24 Yooo I actually remember these scissors!! I owned Castle Crashers on the PS3, and I've only encounters these scissors once in an insane playthrough!!

the dead king may have ruled over the castle before the evil wizard came and took over

I seen this in my recommended and was so damn happy.

awesome vid

Can’t wait for insane damageless streams

Editing is top tier

I’ve been waiting for this since 2021

It cool how castle change so much for it early develop to now

didnt even know there was deep lore about goofy knight game this should be good

Keep grinding

If you were to ask me, I would say that the crown, skeleton, and broken chair you see in the wizard boss fight was probably used as a threat to scare the player that the king was killed, because we rarely see him in the game at all, and we have no knowledge of where he could have went.

Wow the screenshot of the scissor enemy brought back a decade+ old memory

OH NO recker has turned into matpat XD

I WANT THIS VIDEO TO BE 7 HOURS LONG AND AN 5 SEASON SERIES

Acid lightning is a castle crashers youtuber that does a lot of content such as a guides, playthroughs, personal challenges, etc. He's also ranked top 10 globally on the kill leaderboard if you check in the castle crashers game. this is because he is very good at juggling and does a lot xp grind, so he racks up a lot of kills over the many many many hours.

Holy shit, this video is amazing. You are always 1up-ing your content, and it's crazy. Keep up the great work, man!

O detalhe do rei morto na arena do último chefe, me faz pensar o seguinte, talvez o esqueleto seja do mago, que ao invés de ter sido ressuscitado atravéz de uma magia do necromante, ele tenha voltado em uma forma mágica ou nem voltado, talvez esse mago que a gente vê no jogo tenha pego o cristal e mais uma das princesas para reviver o corpo morto, pois de todos os lugares para manter um corpo tão importante fosse em uma sala tão importante quanto a do último chefe.

I would go NUTS if there was a castle crashes sequel

To be honest, knowing how Dan Paladin designs things, I can safely say that the details in the background or similar things to it are just made because they were either funny, or just wanted to decor the thing. I don't really think they hold actual meanings lol. Nice iceberg tho, some things were unknown and I still liked the Bear theory!

goodness, i think this is a mandela effect. i was playing xbox 360 Castle Crashers, and i loaded into a online multiplayer match, someone was playing as the troll, someone played as red knight, and someone played as the EVIL WIZARD(not the minion). I swear, i remember it clear as day. That group was how i maxed out my king, beating insane mode with them. I ported the save data to remastered, and yeah, my king is still lvl 99, gold skull.

Well, there are a few things that pretty much disprove the Bear theory. For one, you can see it's real arms when beefy, and they're also covered in fur, confirming it is indeed a bear. Second, the aliens also have the same armor over their arms and legs to fit the style of the game, and we already know they're legit aliens.

LFG might be refrencing the CC youtuber LFG

This iceberg was fire 🔥 🔥🔥

i need to start playing castle crashers again

I like to think that lava world used to be a somewhat more advanced area as this is the only place you can find more cultured and complex foods like burgers and fries as opposed to the usual fruits and turkey legs. The coneheads are somewhat similar as they have more luxurious deserts.

The people in xbox beef in LFG posts. I've never seen that in any other game its hilarious. Maybe thats why

This was an intresting video some lore and story was one of the many things castle crashers wss missing

Now to add the Piercing Lazer situation…

I met Acid Lightningx when I was younger. I didn’t know that he was famous😂 He did tell that he had a KZfaq channel and was busy trying to help other people beat insane mode, so we only played for an hour. Edit; this was on Xbox

13:20 Yes, it may have the color scheme of Castle Crashers; however, this is not a direct reference to Castle Crashers as this was a location in the original Alien Hominid. It's 2 indirect references combined. Gotta love Dan Palidin.

now there is a playable troll mod

Ye old sidescroller looks like “dad n me”, an old flash game

I can't believe after 10+ years I'm just now finding out that the dragon's bones are in the Cyclops boss room, and that weird thing on the floor is the sock

This gave me more questions than answers💀

W love vid

Alright, time for my genius to show: The Hatty Crystal theory references that the crystal that is taken from the king and CORRUPTED (keep that in mind) could’ve possessed Furbottoms hat in Battleblock Theatre, causing the hat to be so powerful and have the same mysterious glow as the crystal. Which leads to this: The hat is possessed by a fragment of the crystal, which just so happened to have a bit of the evil Wizard remaining inside of it.

Top ten video

The pink knight is accualy the pet handler, you can see this as when someone playes pink knight, the pet handler is no longer in the pet pllace

the blacksmith has always been the person who actually defeats the wizard in my headcanon

i cant believe castle crashers is still alive

No way you just made a iceberg video on one of my favorite games ever

The bears being Vikings doesn't make sense because there's literally the statue of a giant catfish made so that the bears know not to go in the water. Basically reversing the natural roles
