Castle Crashers, McPixel now on Steam
McPixel first of Steam Greenlight program to make it to storefront
Four years after its appearance as one of the first Xbox Live Summer of Arcade games, four-player brawler Castle Crashers has finally made its way to Steam. In other indie news for the PC gaming marketplace, rapid-fire adventure game McPixelearlier this week became the first Steam Greenlight title to be put up for sale, according to creator Sos Sosowski's Twitter account.
Castle Crashers brings its online and offline cooperative play for $15, and McPixel's WarioWare-inspired frenetic point-and-clickery costs $5. Gamers who need to catch up on indie games featuring ample toilet humor can now snag both in the same place.
But no, this does not mean The Behemoth's long-in-development BattleBlock Theater is coming out yet.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and now I'm a staff writer here at GamesRadar.
