A lot of the action-packed tracks contain electronic beats, but they are not exactly techno tracks it works most of the time but at times it gets a little annoying.įor more light-hearted levels there are themes like “Jumper”, the theme to the forest entrance. The tracks do get a bit repetitive while listening to them without the fun game to back them up, and I’ll talk more about that in a moment. The Painter Boss’ theme is just upbeat and silly like the painter boss is. The final boss track, “Necromancer”, is just bursting with hardcore rocking energy and when the synth comes in, it sounds great. The boss tracks also range from upbeat to epic depending on the boss. With the style of the game, it all just flows perfectly back and forth from epic to humorous. And after a battle of epic proportations, there’s nothing better than relaxing to the quirky shop track called “Spanish Waltz”. There must have been a lot of picking and choosing for what tracks went into the game and, of course, these were the best of the best.

It really gets you pumped for battling with your buddies and the fact that I could see it in a big name action RPG shows some of these non-professional musicians are worthy too. Some of the greatest serious music starts right with the main theme, “Four Brave Champions”. I don’t like to use the word “epic” too often, but I think anyone who has played this game would agree that it is an appropriate word. The more serious tracks work extremely well. This game is no doubt a comedy, but that doesn’t stop it from being epic. Despite what you might be thinking, it’s far from amateur and I can’t say I’ve ever heard a better user-based soundtrack in my life. It’s actually a collection of music previously made by various users of Newgrounds. The funny thing about the soundtrack is that it was never actually written for this game specifically.

The Castle Crashers soundtrack is, no doubt, one of the more appropriate soundtracks I’ve heard in a video game. Turns out it was just a trick of physics the whole time.Everything about the Castle Crashers soundtrack screams that humorous, awesome, and especially epic style straight from the heart of the game. When Union Pacific added a second track to the intersection, they levelled out the elevation, removing the downward slant that vehicles would gently roll down when they were supposedly being 'pushed' by the ghosts. Even worse, the tracks were 'exorcised,' if you will, by a construction project. However, in 2003, archivist Matt De Waelsche traced the story's origin to a 1938 bus accident in Salt Lake City, Utah. The push purportedly comes from wee ghosts of children who met an untimely end in the early 1900s when a train rammed into a bus at the location. As a bonus, if you put flour on the back of your trunk, you might even see their little handprints. As the story goes, you can park your car at this spot on the train tracks and get “pushed” forward by some spectral helpers. This long-dispelled myth is still a local favorite, and has repeatedly been voted Best Urban Legend in the Current’s Best of San Antonio poll. You can’t talk about urban legends in San Antonio without covering the Ghost Tracks.
