The spiritual successor to Alien Hominid, Castle Crashers, has gone live on XBLA today for 1200 MS Points (around £10).
Hand drawn with a unique art style and utterly insane (just like AH), Castle Crashers promising feature list includes "magic, mayhem, floating face-biting bat buddies and fish-swords.
"Castle Crashers (rated T for Teen) features a unique mix of beat-em-up action along with mild RPG elements letting you hack, slash and smash your way to victory," explains the release.
AH was tough so we wouldn't be surprised if this is a total ball buster too. And if you're truly mental (or just well 'ard) it also features an Insane Mode, unlocked when you finish the regular mode.
There's also four-player deathmatches in there, online play, and the option to turn off the blood if you're pansy (or have strict parents).
Here, have some screens. Then get on it.
