Crush the Castle 2 – Released!

   Posted by: Con in Crush the Castle, News

Crush the Castle 2 has finally been released (last week, I’m a bit slow off the mark). Go check it out and be sure to contribute to the People’s Empire! As most of you probably know, I was responsible for the art and a few of the castles.

In other news, thanks to everyone for your congratulations for my winning of the Most Epic Battle Scene category in Nickelodeon’s recent Addicting Games Showdown. Warfare 1944 also thanks you.


PLAY CRUSH THE CASTLE 2

    Crush The Castle 2 IS GREAT! I’ve Finished it already, and unlocked the secret weapon , by the way what castle’s did you make?

    Can’t remember all of them, but:
    - Sacrifice
    - Great Tower
    - Flooding Plains
    - Deep Within

    - Con

  • Ewet8

    Great, now lie back and relax…for about two hours. People will probably be on your a$$ about finishing UC…. also I have an idea for an ad for the nre game… If you haven’t got anything already… Dollars and Sense, A insureance company, It could be a building you raid in game…. If you think its ok….

    Yeah, I’m not taking any more ad suggestions right now.

  • Xaitan

    You’re doing it great…
    -most epic battle scene
    -new crush the castle (Great game)
    -LS:Union City alphas are great

    Congratulations Con!!!!

    ohh and the game is fantastic i already played it

  • ChaosMan

    i created “Bad joke…BLACK HOLE!!”
    YOU CREATED DEEP WITHIN?!??!?!? YOU…YOU… I liked that one, it actually gave me a real challenge.
    WOOT!!! Con won!!!

  • al

    i played it yesterday man better then the first in every way and YEAH GO 1944!!!

  • Flameonfish

    Played it when it first came out. Great game but i wish when you hit restart (if your going for 1 shot gold) you could skip the slow moving from castle to catapult. It just started to get really annoying when you had to try a castle over and over and had to wait 5 seconds when you hit restart level

    Yeah agreed. I’ll mention that to Joey.

  • GenericInsult

    Con,
    Gotta say your unique art in flash games really stand out (meant to be a compliment), you did a really good job on this game. Havent finished it yet, but it feels and looks really really good! What can I say though, whatever flash game Con touches, its a hit! Keep up the good work!
    Cheers
    -Generic

    Thanks man.

  • GenericInsult

    One more thing, ‘grats on the win for most epic battle scene! I mean, if any of the other games would have won, I would have given up on life as a whole… or at least the gaming part… nah couldn’t do that either… what I’m trying to say is that it would suck. Who knows, maybe LS:UC might win something! Eh Eh?

  • Psycho

    Well, can’t play right now… but I think it’ll be awesome.

    I loved the first Crush the Castle so I think this one’s even better.

  • Marcus Vince

    Yeah! What he said! /\

  • poopmonster

    Crush the castle 2 is great hope you make more and congratulations on the win for 1944, I voted for you.

    I have an idea for your next game you could make you could combine Crush the Castle and the warfare it would be awesome. you could deploy troops and support them with catapult.

    So yeah, in summary your awesome keep making games.

  • dusty

    Plz put it on newgrounds man
    Btw great game

    It’ll be on Newgrounds at some point.

  • jack arthur

  • kuronosan

    Beat it. Loved it. Got all achievements. Now if people would just play my castles. XD

  • james

    Very good game! me and my brother love this game we are mad far already

  • http://www.armorgames.com coolLane

    It was a EPIC game i loved the final bomb i just liked making everything shoot into the Void what would have been cooler is all the stuff inside the void caught on fire then exploded

  • Matt

    I voted for 1944 on the polls! Crush the Castle 2 was really great, I loved all the new features and weapons. Did you just do the art for it, or anything else?

  • midget2

    loved the game, not surprised either, but what will always annoy me is the people who hack their castle so it gets the most plays, or most likes. but in real life every one hates it. any plan on make a players pack in the future?

  • http://yahoo ricardo

    hey con artist when i play crush the castle 2 its loading but then the screen keeps flashing and it wont stop please fix it

  • d3wd

    Played through on Sunday.
    Very very nice work, i have to thank you.
    It’s epic. Like Tetris is.

    ~d3wd

  • d3wd

    But there are two things.
    1.) Nobody has uploaded a user level right now.
    2.) I can’t delete mine what has an Flame title :-D
    Keep up the good work.
    ~d3wd

  • Ash

    Great game. Congrats on warfare 1944 as well. Making castles on another tab!

  • Rushzor

    how do you get the black hole thing on campaign?

  • ehw

    Crush the Castle 2 rocks!!

    by the way, TOGE has already managed to accomplish a zombie side scroller shooter. His was a defensive shooter, where you get your crap and press start when you’re ready for the zombies, though; yours appears to be exploration based.

  • Galex44

    Ok bud this is my list of thing that you should know.
    1. Take a break man you deserve it.
    2. UC..as we all know is going to take more time than we expected but keep on it if you can.
    3. Dont mind the addicts who keep on busting your a$$ on UC they dont know how time consuming it is lol.

  • mypie123

    dude i have played and beat every game you have made they are all great in there own way

  • Bib

    The art for CTC 2 was amazing Con, you really out did yourself. Working on the trophies now…

  • keatosimo

    plat CtC2. great game. i must say, you and joey put alot of effort into an already great game!! If you’re making a CtC3 then i wish you luck

    -keatosimo

  • shift4101

    Thank god that Crush the Castle is tied with Sonny 2 with a 9.5. I hate the Sonny series. Hopefully U.C. will go above and beyond, eh?

  • http://kacboy.webs.com/ kacboy

    Epic, I already got a gold on all the castles, except “Ballroom Dance”. That level is evil.

    Congrats on the Award as well. I voted for it about 30 times I think.

    Also, do you got AIM?

    I do, but I’m not giving out that sort of info, sorry.

    - Con

  • Mr. A

    you must be one of the unknown god of games

    anyways i wonder if youll ever make any real games which arent flash now i wonder how that would work out >_>

    hope to see LS:UC soon

  • Johnperry

    Nice job con. Although i dont think back in the medievil times there were timed bombs…

    There were wizards and black hole potions though, right?

  • Jake

    Quick question. I’m 16, love video games and have followed your blog for the past 6 months or so and I was thinking of maybe getting into adobe and developing games. I’m not asking you to teach me I’m just asking if you think maybe it’s too late to get started?

    No way is it too late. I started out really getting into computer graphics stuff at your age. I’d suggest with starting out learning what you’re strongest at.

    If you’re good at art, start playing with Paint or Photoshop if you can get your hands on a trial version. If you want to start with animation, get a trial of Flash and read up on traditional animation techniques.

    Or if you want to jump into programming, check out the Flash tutorials for building games on kirupa.com or the guides on Kongregate.

    Biggest thing is to just learn each thing as you go. Making games needs those 3 skills the most (plus a bunch more) and it’s taken me 10+ years to develop my skills in all these areas.

    You’re at the perfect age to get started!

    i love it!

  • d3wd

    congratulation for winning this award.
    I’m glad.

    ~d3wd

  • General

    Good job with Crush the Castle! I got all the achievements and gold on all the castles, the only real challenges were Ballroom Dance and the one with the man right behind the house.. it took me forever to hit that guy!

    - General

  • Jake

    Cool, thanks a lot Con. I downloaded a trial version of Flash CS5 last night and have been going through some online tutorials. I have absolutely no talent art wise, but I’m hoping my Dad and/or sister, who are good artists, can help me out there and I’d do all the animation and programming. Thanks again!

  • ChaosMan

    damn, CTC 2 went up a quarter of a million hits over night. congrats

  • Deviruchi

    Congratulations for winning the Epic battle scene award! TLS-UC would probably win some awards of it’s own. Great games so far. But I was wondering when you would put Crush the castle 2 on Kongregate.

    Deviruchi.

    It should, I’m not sure what their rules are like about connecting to outside sites so it might be a different version. As for when, no idea. Probably a month after the Armor release.
    - Con

  • Ahmad

    Thanks for the great games.

  • ChaosMan

    also, DAMN STRAIGHT THERE WAS WIZARDS AND BLACKHOLE/acid/ice/(timed, fused, remote, regularbombs)POTIONS!!!!!!!

  • mic777

    Hey con i know this totally unrealeted but please read!

    I think you should put a list of all known weapons for the last stand union city in the union city fact sheet, so we can have a look and see if we have them all in the Alpha etc…

    ~ Mic777

    Yeah, don’t want to commit to anything like that at this stage.
    - Con

  • Wild Style

    sorry to say something that isn’t positive con, but when i clicked on the link for the game it loaded like 6 times and stayed on that screen and started flashing black really fast.. i also tried going to armor games website and it did the same thing. what might this be from?

    Might be your flash player version. Check if you’re up to date here:

  • JohnPerry

    Hey con, i was thinking thanks for making games your good at it,AND we all really enjoy playing them…so,thanks…sorry for being off topic and posting twice. i wont again.

  • Enrique

    Cool, glad you won. I gave you a couple votes, ;)

  • Beau

    CTC 2 is pretty good, i like it when the castles burn and they react by raising their arms. Anyways congrats on w1944 winning

  • http://armorgames.com/user/Dannydaninja DannyDaNinja

    Another Quick Question.

    With Jakes question on on how he could creates games and stuff, do you think maybe it’s too early to start at 13?

    I started programming in BASIC at 11 or 12, so no.
    - Con

  • MrPinkyBoy

    WOW! Crush the castle 2 is SO fun! I bet you worked a ong time on that artwork! And congratulations on winning with Warfare 1944!

  • Bob

    Nice work on Crush the Castle 2, I love the secret weapon.

  • Kevin

    Hey Con, I like CtC 2 a lot, i also can’t wait for UC, but which will come first UC, or Autumn War 2.
    Want to play them both.

  • bk

    autumn war was pretty ill but way to hard sometimes.

    CtC was okay

    more interested in last stand…

    i’d say congrats but it looks like u got a whole fan wagon that’d give you sensual massages if you asked.

  • http://www.discombobulated.110mb.com Allan

    The art was spectacular in CtC, congats, just out of curiosity what tools do you use with image manipulating(photoshop eg.).

    Im finding it is hard to do smooth graphics in free editors and was wondering what the best thing to use for spriteing would be.

    Yeah, Photoshop was what I used. It’s probably the best for doing sprites too. If you can’t get your hands on Photoshop, have you tried GIMP, it’s a free alternative: http://www.gimp.org/

  • shredfangs

    CtC2 was amazing, if a little easy im my opinion.it took me somewhere around 20 minutes to finish the game with all gold medals.
    i thought the players pack was a better challenge.

  • http://http://www.conartistgames.com/index.php/the-last-stand-union-city-alpha-085/ Chris Tulley

    I cant play for some odd reason I keep clicking play and it doesn’t do diddly squat

    Check your flash version is up to date.

  • bob

    nice job con it must be hard doing all that artwork

    Was a big job, took 3 months all up.

  • ghost

    O: awesome :D

  • mic777

    Dude when are Submachine Guns coming out? just curios are they going to be in next alpha or will you release a list with it?

    RIGHT NOW!

  • Mr.Mongooseman

    Sweet i Love Crush The Castle

  • Goblex2

    I thought it was awesome!!! Awesome art work… Awesome Game Play… Awesome castles… The creator did a great job on the different types of throwables!!
    I give this 5/5

  • Tester

    How can I delete the achievements, so that i can play it again?

    Pretty sure you can’t, unless you find the .sol file for it (shared objects). If you’ve used the Armor Games Save, you can’t.
    - Con

  • Revelation01 (Kevin)

    Wow, the game is amazing! Every aspect and change compared to the first one is better! The only thing that was better from the first one is how the people die. I enjoyed the dead bodies more than the exploding bodies. Either way, great game! Looking forwad to number 3 :-)

    Yeah, there’s more death animations coming. Think I’d not put the stumbling head explosion back in?
