My Destructoid friends, let me show you them photo

At this point I think it can be unanimously decided that what you need to know about The Behemoth's upcoming game Castle Crashers is simply the following: awesome game is awesome. End of story. Both editors and community members have gotten their pixel-colored panties in a twist in mere anticipation for the game because of its refreshingly fun gameplay complimented of course by the incredible artwork of artist Dan Paladin (who's creative womb also yields throngs of healthy, bubbling Castle Crashers figurines in four flavors).

Reciprocal fanboy-ism is never a bad thing when it comes to the video game industry, and one certainly can't help but swoon just a smidgen to Paladin's artistic ode to Destructoid in a work titled My Destructoid friends, let me show you them <3. The drawing speaks for itself, so a huge less-than-three out to Mr. Paladin. We here at Destructoid totally heart you back.

The queen regains her thrown but for how long? Topher, have you considered breast augmentation? It could play to your advantage.

For the record (or for those of you who didn't manage to read the entire post) Dan Paladin himself rendered the drawing. Not just CC-style, it's done up by the man himself!

Omg. That is too good! Dan was a pleasure to meet, real chill and laid back. It's awesome that he found time to make this.

CASTLE CRASHERS COME OUT NOW!

I wish Mr. Destructoid could be a secret character in Castle Crashers. Hahahahaha.

I really want this game. Looks like it will be crazy fun.

Now I need to figure out a way to not completely sux at the game, so if we all play together, I'm not the man left behind. ("Oh Snaps. It's 20 seconds in and Slug is already out. Didn't see that one coming." :P)

I told Colette I would have rather met Dan than meet our sweet lord jesus. Dan, sorry if I came off like a giggling school girl. My Soviet Missile Mastar shirt resides in a very special place in my heart.
