SYNJ
Daniel Joseph Paladin (born September 14, 1979), also known as Synj, is an American video game artist, designer, and co-founder of the video game company The Behemoth.
He began collaborating with Newgrounds creator Tom Fulp and in the early 2000's designed several Flash-based browser games: Sack Smash 2001, Chainsaw the Children, Dad n' Me, and, most notably, Alien Hominid. In 2002, he, Fulp, John Baez, and Brandon LaCava founded the video game company The Behemoth. Paladin designed the critically acclaimed remake of Alien Hominid, as well as the hack-and-slash game Castle Crashers, with his 2D style becoming signature for these games.
Aside from working for The Behemoth, Paladin has also worked for Gratuitous Games and Presto Studios. He also composed a polka-style song that ended up being used in the closing credits for the Cyanide & Happiness animated shorts.
