So, if you don’t know who the devs “The Behemoth” are, which are also called the Castle crasher devs, they make good games. They usually make games that usually cost $10-$20. So, I’m going to be rating all their games, because why not. Also this is my opinion, and yes I have played all their games and completed them, and keep in mind all these games are pretty good.
4. Pit People
Pit people, their most Recent game (released in 2018, demo in 2017) is 5th in my opinion. It’s a turn based game where set in a apocalyptic dreamland with a space bear narrating what’s happening (voiced by Will Stamper, very good voice actor.) You should play
Battleblock Theater before this to understand the story. Why? The story is kinda short, but good. The game is mostly side quests so I would recommend doing those to make the game longer. You should also try to recruit units like cyclops, spidaurs, cup cakes, hair trolls, troll moms, humans, pixies etc etc. Game is $20 dollars, and is it worth it? Yes, but it seems more like a $15 game instead of $20 game.
3. Alien Hominid
Alien hominid is a run n’ gun game where you play as a yellow alien with big, black bug-like eyes and antennas with a zig-zag mouth. The story is that the FBI shot down your UFO and now you need to get it back. So you have to kill tons of FBI agents and their machines to get your space ship back, to where you somehow end up in Russia. In Russia you have to fight past lots of Soviet Union soldiers and machines, similar to the first world, Urban (it’s set in a city.) The next world is Area 51, where you encounter many strange things in the later levels, like small blue hairy things with shark fins on their backs that cling on to military soldiers and spray them with acid, disintegrating them. Is this game worth the $10 dollars? Yes, it’s a decently long game and your thumb will probably hurt a lot from how many times you pressed the X button.
2. Battleblock Theater
Battleblock Theater is a platformer game where the story is, your one of the hundreds of friends in whatever place. Anyways, they always go on adventures with their ship, The S.S. Friendship (yes they really did call it that) and there’s this one friend who is more like the king of them, but not really if that makes sense. His name is Hatty Hattington, and he later becomes important in the story. So the S.S. Friendship crashes into an island with a broken down theater that you enter, with random orange cats with a white face and belly (they stand on two legs) who are just there, and as you explore the theater you see the cats put a strange hat on Hatty Hattington. Later, you then wake up in prison with cat guards, and your forced to perform in front of an audience of cats to entertain them as you run through spikes, pools of water (your character can’t swim) and various other things. There’s also stuff like wings and a jet pack you can get. Also, did I mention you can shove and punch your friends to their death in this game? I would recommend playing with friends, because I played it with mine and we kept shoving each other into spikes and pools of water (well, mostly me because that’s the first thing I think of.) It even got to the point where whenever he helped my up a ledge he would instantly try to push me off because I was going to the same. It’s more than worth the $15 dollars, if you have friends. It has a level editor and all that, too bad the servers are dead though.
1. Castle Crashers
Ah yes, Castle Crashers. This is the first game I played made by the devs, and it’s a beat’em up type of game where you attack your enemies with swords and everything. Also this is set in the medieval age, but there’s a literal alien space ship that’s a reference to alien hominid, along with cone heads that have light sabers, and did I mention there’s an industrial castle? I don’t have much else to say since it’s getting pretty late, but is it worth the $15 dollars? It’s beyond worth it, the replay ability on this game is excellent, I’ve played it over and over again and have sometimes gotten bored of it, but yeah, definitely worth it and the best game made by “The Behemoth.”

More Silver Coloring Tips
okay, but, what the shuck is going on here, who is Tina (rip if it was real tho), who is dtg, I needa read allo’ this lore to get caught up, seriously tho, this silver coloring tips section is completely bizarre.
Feels like I’ve discovered an ancient landmark in Dododex.
A hidden community hidden away in a random place.
Arguing and chatting on the most random subjects.
I think they even made a discord.
Fascinating to know Dododex isn’t just a wiki for some, it’s a community.
-SomeGamerGuy, the stupid friend.
5 years ago this was me. Bruh I'm in college now...
-Dilo Girl, I still live!
jesus, i used to write in this thing in like 2022, looks like a nuclear fallout now
I will be continuing and revamping The Righteous.

Sometimes I look back at all the arguments we had back in the day here and I just cringe
DTG here again on behalf of Bob.
He deleted dododex but may return.
He appreciates any positive comments and is glad people are still writing.
-Dodo Tales Guy
DTG here.
I saw The Advocate's response and I'd like to explain some things.
Firstly, I take full responsibility for my past mistakes. I undeniably hurt the community with my naive actions. I was incredibly immature.
I apologized to PM about the argument we had years ago, but forgot to apologize for my other actions.
I'm sorry for aggressively promoting the discord and encouraging people to migrate to it. I shouldn't have pushed something that only certain people could use.
I'm also incredibly sorry about how I spoke of people and their writing. It was childish and I regret it. The only writing I currently dread is my own past writing.
Yes, most writers here can write stories FAR superior to Dodo Tales. Dodo Tales was pretty awful and I want to implode whenever someone reminds me of its existence.
Regarding my status in the community, I am currently uninterested in fanfictions in general.
Regarding other OGs,
do not blame them for my actions. Bob, snek, CL1, etc. simply trusted me. They are not responsible for what I have done. I also cannot recall them insulting newer writers as I did.
Additionally, I don't believe they are morally obligated to participate in the community or read any new stories. They (as far as I'm aware) have lost interest, and we are all free to leave the community at any time.
I've made an effort to improve as a person over the years and I hope you can all forgive me.
Also, please tell me if I've forgotten to address anything. Im sure I have.

P.S.
If you're wondering what we talk about in the discord nowadays...
nothing. It's literally just two people playing wordle over and over. It died.
There's an active discord server called Club Parrot that has some writers in it, but I'm not involved with that server.
DTG, You are still very well known within the dex, however, I wouldn’t be too sure if you are seen in a good light by some.
I am here to say this to you though. You are one the reason for this place’s demise, you as one of the main foundations didn’t cultivate when you could. You didn’t stand for those who needed it, you left entirely to a site that only available to those who make an account. No one else shall see or know what you speak or do. Then you only appreciated the works of those from your time or those who rivaled your own works. Therefore, you and many of the others, fell. Either coming in once a year or just falling into obscurity.
Something I find ironic is that when you once mocked the newer writers for sounding like the written work of ten year olds in a joking manner, which you claimed to be nothing more than light hearted jokes although from the conversation seemed to be more of mockery. But what I find funny is that you seem to be younger than most of those you “joked” about, which by means, doesn’t aid that their writing is simply better than your last pieces to DodoTales, which wasn’t that far separated from the newer writer’s writings.
But what I find most disturbing is that you didn’t even CARE when it happened. No apology, no forthright response to the matter, no claim of falsehood. The only one who did come was Bob, to which he apologized and set up diplomatic relations, bless him for his actions of trying to make things right… You came in AFTER diplomatic actions occurred like nothing happened and just claimed you were going to continue DodoTales. Which also didn’t see fruition.
This only seems to prove the claims of “Ben”.
NOW TO ALL THOSE HERE. I stand unaffiliated with neither side of the matter. I stand not with Achatina, nor with the dyes and OG, or even the “HATERS” and “Fanfictioneers”. I wander as though I were a Homo Deus. To wander the universe of the dex until I hit that fateful point where I go beyond this universe that is the dex. And cease to exist.
I have a statement to say to Achatina too.
You may act better than the OGs, you may not talk behind others backs like the OGs once did, but you are no means better. For one, seem to hold a bitter resentment against OGs, while you say you forgive, you never speak of them, nor celebrate their actions they had made that were indeed good. Not only that, but you seem to fall slowly in the same demise as they once did. That being, you don’t cultivate anymore, or as much as you use to. You slowly have disappeared from your own community, making your own decision to go to a site that while is more inclusive to those who lack access the ability to sign ins, allowing for all of dex to see what you speak of. But it is still exclusive to those who want to join in, because they need to make an account. As much as you don’t want to hear it, you are making the same mistakes as the OGs did so long ago. And who knows, maybe one day, there will slip, and you’ll become the new OGs to the next new writers. As those who ignore history, are doomed to repeat it.
Here is where I give my advice TO ALL.
For the OGs here that still come.
Do what is needed from you, if you sought to come and see what things are like since you last came in. Read the stories that are here now, especially before judging, interact with the new writers more than once a year, maybe be more apart of their communities, and not just your own here. Try to learn from them, or teach them if they need it. Try to make an attempt at this, genuinely.
For the newer writers,
FORGIVE… not just with your mouths, or your thoughts, but with your hearts. Saying you do so, but pretending they don’t exist or they don’t matter in your era of existing is no means forgiving. It’s barely considered tolerating. Forgive truly and honestly. And do as I said unto the OG writers. As the same can work for you too.
Instead of existing as two separate groups that never interact, maybe you both can work together, interact with one another in both positives and negatives as one. To make a better, more prosperous community in the dex. One that shares the same, love we all came to find within Ark and the dex. Love and Passion in a game and story. Maybe then there will be a truly thriving community that exists for years to come.
But maybe no one will listen, maybe no one will take my heed, we. May only see some come once every year, and others once every month. And then see a new dawn of young writers who have the passion to build their own community. And they’ll repeat this history as though doomed from the beginning. Or maybe the dex Fanfiction will die with the end of the Achatina Writers. It’s the choice of the Dyes/OGs here and Achatina Writers in Achatina though, not mine to carry. As I will continue to drift through the universe, I call the dex.
I have spoken.
