I think it makes sense that Castle Crashers comes directly after Pit People. This would line up with the fact that "pipistrello cave" is a location in Castle Crashers which is very similar to Pipistrella from Pit People, also the gorgon makes an appearence but she seems to be the last of her species. This would also mark the first appearance of the aliens which would line up with the next game in the timeline Alien Hominid. I think Castle Crashers makes a good bridge between the middle ages and the modern era.
But then you don't have the explanation of the crystal and then the cool theory of the crystal being a part of the hat and the wizard taking over hatty's body.
There really isn't any proof or evidence that the hat has the crystal though. His whole theory is just coming from, "both are red therefore it's the same"@@whiteflame7771
You forgot to mention the part where in Battleblock Theater, Honeyhug made a theory of how Furbottom (can't spell name) got his hat and he said that he got it in a cave where the giant crystal was under the hat and the crystal looked red. Just wanted to mention that.
I do really like how you point out where others might disagree with your proposed cannon, and explain why you treat certain features as cannon and others as not cannon. I'm just finding this channel after enjoying many hours in Castle Crashers around 5ish years after its release, and not really engaging with it since ~2015. I don't have much other deep game knowledge to go off of, so this is extremely informative and honest and allows room for me to form my own thoughts on this theory and the Behemoth cannon, while strongly supporting your cannon. Helps a lot with expressing what is meaningfully assumed with what is known.
Behemoth used to be called Synj Industries and made a lot of flash games for Newgrounds, the most well known ones being Dad n Me and the Alien Hominid demo They switched to being known as The Behemoth when putting out Alien Hominid's full game
Castle Crashers would might be in 1220-1350 cause Castle crashers helmets were based off of the Great Helm (confirmed by the behemoth) and the Great Helm was common in the 13-14 centuries so I think that it takes place at that time
Thank you so much for making this video. I have been waiting for anybody to make a connection between battle block theater and castle crashers that makes sense and you cracked the code my friend
my head cannon for hatty being in CC is that he's literally being ripped from BattleBlock into Castle Crashers. Like the Gods (dev team) are literally pulling him from his time into this one.
If Castle Crashers have a sequel I would love to see like what happens if we go to a place that's like Russia like Cossacks maybe one of the Cossacks could be an ancestor to Boris
9:37 Pit People marks the resurrection of HoneyHug, and still happens immediately after BattleBlock Theatre. The introduction to many characters like Jerkimedes and HoneyKiss still roam around. Calling this “non-cannon” can’t be true because again, in Honey Hug was killed and is now back.
I believe that the hatter from the СС is canon. Everyone's best friend is fighting the darkness in their heart (literally). In his head, he lives the story of the magician who captured his body and tries to defeat him not in order to free the princesses, but in order to regain control of his body. And while this struggle is going on, the hatter's body cannot function
I believe BattleBlock theater takes place after Alien Homind Invasion, because in the Chapter 4 movie/cutscene the same one with the Titanic, the narrator states that the year was around 170509-ish, though with the titanic being there in it, it could still be that it was before, then again there could be some other reasons for the titanic being there. I see where you’re coming from though. /lh
What I think for hatty in castle crashers is that evil wizard could tell the future so he uses magic to bring hatty to CC but evil wizard takes hattys evil magic so thats how hatty is good now but thats also how he doesn't have evil powers
I absolutely love this video! My theories connect with yours so well, except the pitpeople part of it never happening, really made it click for me. I was also wondering about your philosophies the word going around about dinosaurs, is it possible for something to involve them, or is it just a detail? Thank you
I was kinda hoping for the sequel, if they make one, to have the new leader of the cultists like some demon, and the knights had to call help from Paladins. But it would make more since for the origin of the crystal or how it got into Hatty's hat, even if I don't like it. Not that I'm saying they might not make it.
Well see it dosent make sense because even after honey hug dies his voice still says "it all makes sense now" also love the videos you made me beat battle block again to see the ending and it was interesting now I gotta play pit people
I think castle crashers is after alien hominid cause that would explain pipistrello and why install ball is friendly which only happens in alien hominid
I didn't dive this deep as you do, but what do you think about this random guess? Instead of the crystal isn't be purely purged, which will kind against the ending of castle crasher. Purrham Furbottom simply find the wizard's deadbody, and took some magical item, wizard robe for example, and reshape it into morden hat or somthing on the hat such as that belt. Quote from Battleblock:Chapter 5 "other claim Purrham was adventuring through the treacherous caves of the nightmare princess when he found the Hat perched atop a giant ruby, a ruby that naturally formed into the shape of a skull " You said that crystal's neutral state is white, but the hat only display two color, green and red, never white, well, at least never glow in white. Red is for wizard, and green...I have no clue. My best guess is, in the end of castle crasher, the last princess turn into a clown, and we know this series full with dark humor. Perhaps that means the king betray the knight? And then bury the knight and wizard in the same tomb to cover things up, and "the nightmare princess" might refer to the fake princess in ending. Since the default knight is the green knight, so the development team toke green magical power.
one thing to note is that even despite the hat having red magic and everything, the crystal when taken over still has white electrical effects with it. not red of course this isnt big and could just be an oversight in the game but its just some food for thought
You forgot to talk about the red crystal skull in battle block that may have connection with the idea of the hat having the wizard soul inside since the hat was found on the red crystal skull
Hm... What if Hatty is somehow traveled back in time, to defeat the wizard and erase him, since he's the only one who has "The Power of Good". Imagine if the ending with Hatty would change a bit in Castle Crashers?
By doing very basic research on The Behemoth, it is known that Alien Hominid HD, the ga,e that you showed, had its graphics redone in 2023, the first graphics change since Newgrounds. (2002). The hat is no coinsidence. It is supposed to be there.
I think it goes Alien Hominid (World isn't destroyed yet) -> Battleblock theater (Hatty falls into the sea and kills honey hugs, kickstarting the apocalypse) -> Pit people (immediate aftermath of the apocalypse caused by honey hugs death, medieval like society is starting) -> Castle Crashers (Period of relative stability after the events of pit people, medieval like society is in full swing. Hatty also reemerges to be a playable character which while probably non-canon would only make sense after at least BBT)
Okay i knew this video would be unique when he put castle crashers at the beginning normally people put castle crashers after battleblock theater because in battle block theater there's a scientist that wants to make mutant bats even though he's scared of bats and pp estrella is in bbt but it would make sense if castle crashers was in the beginning of the timeline
Yeah I mentioned the bats in my counter arguments section, I believe it to just be a reference, or at the very least, the scientist never did it as it only said it was his dream, so we cannot confirm he made pipi or not
I love how the tinfoil hat gets bigger and better overtime
OH MY GOD YES 😭
Bro’s just getting smarter and smarter
@@Guy339z the brain is stored in the had, of course, what didn't I think of that
i did not notice that
I can see that
Bro, Behemoth might need a sequel to Castle Crashers where the Hat is the final boss.
They’re done updating the game
Tin foil hat is poorly cropped onto your head and makes it funnier lol
It's not poorly cropped to begin with - it just keeps getting bigger XD
It’s getting bigger
it's overloading
@@ollysee3656big

I love that all the behemoths games have similar characteristics in their style
adds to the charm
You forgot to mention the part where in Battleblock Theater, Honeyhug made a theory of how Furbottom (can't spell name) got his hat and he said that he got it in a cave where the giant crystal was under the hat and the crystal looked red. Just wanted to mention that.
this crystal looks like the one that the wizard uses in castle crashers
Fr bro
In some of the videos, Hatty has a red gem looking thing on his hat. Maybe that’s the part of the crystal from Castle crashes.
dad 'n me in the corner: where do i fit in?
every other behemoth game arguing about the timeline: SHUT UP YOU
I do really like how you point out where others might disagree with your proposed cannon, and explain why you treat certain features as cannon and others as not cannon.

They switched to being known as The Behemoth when putting out Alien Hominid's full game
I love how reck’s tinfoil hat gets bigger as the video goes on
Feel like this video is one of your best projects so far. Great job Recker ❤❤
Castle Crashers would might be in 1220-1350 cause Castle crashers helmets were based off of the Great Helm (confirmed by the behemoth) and the Great Helm was common in the 13-14 centuries so I think that it takes place at that time
Thank you so much for making this video. I have been waiting for anybody to make a connection between battle block theater and castle crashers that makes sense and you cracked the code my friend
Tom Fulp and Dan Paladin: naw, bro uncovered 19 years of game lore in just one video
Very interesting theory! And I LOVE how the Tin foil hat just gets progressively bigger every scene 🤣
JAKE!!!!!!!! Thank you so much man
I JUST REALIZED
Alien theorists in a nutshell.
Great video man been loving the uploads!
Time lines!! Hope you feel better Recker :DD
That is so good video. I just love the theory. It gives most sense of all Timeline theories.
u always post before I sleep and I love it bc I get to sleep to these ❤
This is the best story line video I've ever seen
Great work👍
This video is all I've ever wanted for every franchise ever

Great video and a great theory!
I enjoyed this theory a lot recker great video
god I hope we get a castle crashers 2 set in modern day.
Nah, We'd Win.
dude i thought you had at least 2 mil subs how the hell is this channel so underrated
I believe that the hatter from the СС is canon. Everyone's best friend is fighting the darkness in their heart (literally).

Time travel fixes the conflicting easter eggs

FINALLY, a video like this. Thanks reckerless.
What I think for hatty in castle crashers is that evil wizard could tell the future so he uses magic to bring hatty to CC but evil wizard takes hattys evil magic so thats how hatty is good now but thats also how he doesn't have evil powers
If they make a third alien hominid game we will all riot at there hq
Start of the Video: There is no way these games are apart of the same universe...
End of the Video: Well what'da know?
I absolutely love this video! My theories connect with yours so well, except the pitpeople part of it never happening, really made it click for me. I was also wondering about your philosophies the word going around about dinosaurs, is it possible for something to involve them, or is it just a detail? Thank you
OUTSTANDING VIDEO video
I love you vids man
hatty does move in battleblock theater you can see him cranking the leg stretcher thing when you beat the time trial
BattleBlock Theater is my favorite game
I was kinda hoping for the sequel, if they make one, to have the new leader of the cultists like some demon, and the knights had to call help from Paladins. But it would make more since for the origin of the crystal or how it got into Hatty's hat, even if I don't like it. Not that I'm saying they might not make it.
Man if they make a cc2 it would be my dream come true that was most of my childhood lol
Tbh I didn't care my entire 25 year old life to know that those games might connect.....but if they do, I want it to be just like this.
Well see it dosent make sense because even after honey hug dies his voice still says "it all makes sense now" also love the videos you made me beat battle block again to see the ending and it was interesting now I gotta play pit people
Missed opportunity to say “Sit back, and Buckle your pants”
yo, this video is really cool!
a casual w from reckerless
I think castle crashers is after alien hominid cause that would explain pipistrello and why install ball is friendly which only happens in alien hominid
Hatty's green laser kills the alien from alien hominid, not sure why you didn't mention that
I don’t have tinfoil but I do have aluminum
Titanic was not completed on March 31st, 1909. Construction started. Blew the theory wide open.
Jk great vid
castle crashers always struck me as medieval, as there are barbarians, knights, castles, princesses and wizards.
Castle crashers 2 should have the knights go to modern day
Or castle crashers could be a post apocalyptic future
I didn't dive this deep as you do, but what do you think about this random guess?
Instead of the crystal isn't be purely purged, which will kind against the ending of castle crasher.
Purrham Furbottom simply find the wizard's deadbody, and took some magical item, wizard robe for example, and reshape it into morden hat or somthing on the hat such as that belt.

You said that crystal's neutral state is white, but the hat only display two color, green and red, never white, well, at least never glow in white.
Red is for wizard, and green...I have no clue.
My best guess is, in the end of castle crasher, the last princess turn into a clown, and we know this series full with dark humor.

Since the default knight is the green knight, so the development team toke green magical power.
Hopefully they make another castle crasher it’s an amazing game
[ 6:21 ]
"But the ocean was all like "SIKE!!" And it came back even bigger this time, Twice as big!"
*WSHOOOHSHOOSHOOOYU*
good video ❤
I loved this
i really hope for a castle crasher 2 🙏
I’m certain Castle Crashers is some where around 1400 to 1500, I think.
they’ll never make anything better than castle crashers
hey recker can you do a firedemon magic only run would be nice ❤
Why does the new alien hominid looks so, so adorable?
My personal head Canon is that the crystal is the heart of Honeyhuggs
During the spider phase of the evil wizard when he sommens? The mions whaere do thay gat the wepons from
one thing to note is that even despite the hat having red magic and everything, the crystal when taken over still has white electrical effects with it. not red
of course this isnt big and could just be an oversight in the game but its just some food for thought
You forgot to talk about the red crystal skull in battle block that may have connection with the idea of the hat having the wizard soul inside since the hat was found on the red crystal skull
What if it's all just a massive time loop that shifts little by little as more looping happens? Eventually it all segments into each other seamlessly.
Man I wish that they made more games
The evil wizard being a lich is very funny bro knows necromancy has a phylactery but he's still called a wizard
Hm... What if Hatty is somehow traveled back in time, to defeat the wizard and erase him, since he's the only one who has "The Power of Good".
Imagine if the ending with Hatty would change a bit in Castle Crashers?
By doing very basic research on The Behemoth, it is known that Alien Hominid HD, the ga,e that you showed, had its graphics redone in 2023, the first graphics change since Newgrounds. (2002). The hat is no coinsidence. It is supposed to be there.
also, what if castle crashers is a rotated image of the Black Sea, then the crimean war would make absolutely perfect sense.
it all makes sense now…
I wish he could have said yes, Castle Crashers for a third time.
Lets fucking go goated ass video
I’ve only played castle crashes and alien hominid
Tbh I hope cyboris or cyborg boris will be seen in the future
Alien hominid 3, castle crashers 2, blah blah, i want battle block theater 2
Okay now *it all makes sense now*
Castle crashers has a industrial castle in it, the industrial revolution was in 1760, so AT LEAST Castle crashers takes place in 1760
13:05peepeestrello💀
Hey recker! Hope ya have a grand ol' time. I know I won't
great video
thank you lucas :)
This video is the results of years of brain rot….. thank you
It may not make sense but what if castle crashers is a post apocalyptic from alien hominid. Making it a game set in the future.
I think it goes Alien Hominid (World isn't destroyed yet) -> Battleblock theater (Hatty falls into the sea and kills honey hugs, kickstarting the apocalypse) -> Pit people (immediate aftermath of the apocalypse caused by honey hugs death, medieval like society is starting) -> Castle Crashers (Period of relative stability after the events of pit people, medieval like society is in full swing. Hatty also reemerges to be a playable character which while probably non-canon would only make sense after at least BBT)
Forgot about invasion, would just be after alien hominid.
Would also explain all the technology in castle crashers
You forgot to sing “buckle your pants”
Did you know that alien hominid not their first game it was dad n' me
Pixar theorists have been real quiet after this was uploaded
The way to get hatty on xbox 360 is to have battleblock theater similar to pc
Okay i knew this video would be unique when he put castle crashers at the beginning normally people put castle crashers after battleblock theater because in battle block theater there's a scientist that wants to make mutant bats even though he's scared of bats and pp estrella is in bbt but it would make sense if castle crashers was in the beginning of the timeline
Yeah I mentioned the bats in my counter arguments section, I believe it to just be a reference, or at the very least, the scientist never did it as it only said it was his dream, so we cannot confirm he made pipi or not
castle crashers 👍
I really think behemoth needs an indirect or sequel confirmed sequel to castle crashers just to fix up the timeline
Didn't talk about that the previous souls that wore the hat got trapped and merged. Kinda surprised you didn't being that up at all
So i just wanna say there sorta is a castle crashers 2 the remastered one
🔥
Imagine if Castle Crashers 2 was a prequel
Behmeoth themselves had said they dont know the lore but they did explain their opinion a little bit in the last pit people stream they did😭
Castle crashers must take place around the times the pyramids were made because the aliens built them in the desert level
