Here are some incredibly cursed monstrosities I asked a computer to create while looking for art for my new song.

Also yeah I released a new song, my entry for NGADM :)

Bandits & Barbarians

An Online Turn-Based Archery Experience!

Hi Newgrounds, Happy Pico Day! I hope I can interest you in my newest game that just released today! It's pretty fun, it's online and more skill based than madness roulette was!

I want to write a big ol essay here about what Newgrounds means to me but this crunch period has me completely wiped so I'm just gonna drop the game link and bail sorry! It's a little rough around the edges, I didn't get a chance to like style all the css elements and get a proper intro credit sequence and stuff, but I'm pretty happy with what I have so far! I'm gonna be patching it for a while, and if it does well I have some expansion ideas! (animal orbs, anyone?)

I wanted to stream pico day content today but I need to get a few hours of sleep before work so I'll save it for another day. Have fun, and again happy pico day!

MADNESS ROULETTE SEASON 2: OUT NOW!!!!

Confession time: we've had season 2 finished for weeks! We were going to wait until Madness Day to release it but we thought it would be funny to just drop it on April 1st so no one would take us seriously. There are a ton of new features and unlocks available with this update, so make sure to check it out!

Season 2 will run from Apr 1 - Jul 1, make sure you unlock everything!

(due to our sentimentality, season 2 will be a new game project so we can preserve madness roulette's history!)

Hiya! Sorry I didn't release a game or song for Pixel Day, but to make up for it I'm streaming Pixel Day content on Youtube! Gonna be checking out some art, games, music, etc! Come and hang out!

Edit: Stream's over! Thanks to everyone who stopped by! Here are some of my favorite games from Pixel Day 2022:

Hi NG, sorry for the silence the past few months but I've been kinda overwhelmed with IRL stuff and haven't been productive enough to warrant a news post.

I wanna start by thanking everyone who played Madness Roulette! I was surprised it was received so positively, cause it was an impromptu project started maybe 2.5 weeks before madness day 😅 I'm sorry season 2 hasn't dropped yet, but like all of my work I publish it and then I hate it, so we're taking our time to revamp the UI and everything and give it a nice polish! We have a lot of neat ideas for the future of MR, including private match spectating, cosmetics to dress up the grunt with (make your own character!), firebase integration (to allow for persistent player saves and community events like faction battles!), and a madness minigame arcade with single and multi player minigames you can play to earn tickets which can be redeemed for cosmetics and stuff! I'm pretty excited, but please be patient as this update will take some time!

I'd also like to give a huge thanks to the project members who made this all possible! @teravex @yurikadry @spazgunk @slickramen, you guys rock!

Existential Anxiety Simulator

I've also just released a new ambient project. It's some pretty trippy stuff, be sure to check it out! I'll have some more traditional electronic tracks out soon, I promise :X

But yeah, as I said in the beginning, real life is throwing everything it's got at me right now so I'm not sure how active I'll be. It's a lovely combination of health problems, house repairs, and financial stress YEEHAW. Even if my online presence suffers, just know that I'm chipping away at things behind the scenes, slowly but surely!

Take care NG, I love you 💕

WELCOME TO MADNESS ROULETTE!

Happy Madness Day 2021 everyone! To celebrate, I've created a game with the help of @teravex, @yurikadry, and @spazgunk! It's inspired by Pico Roulette and plays very similarly, but with the addition of level progression and cosmetic customization options! It also features... ONLINE MULTIPLAYER!!!

There are 50 tiers to start, for the first "season". We have big plans for this game and intend to update it, so feel free to leave feedback and suggestions!

I also had the pleasure of producing the main theme with @dieswyx! Give it a listen:

I hope you enjoy the stuff I've made, and have a merry madness day!

NEW PROFILE PICTURE JUST DROPPED AAAAAAA

I bought my friend @YuriKadry a game, so he made me this <3 Thank you so much Yuri!

If you haven't already, play Eggtopia: Critter Collector!

It was a game I made with Yuri and @teravex for the NG Egg game jam! It's pretty basic, but I love the pet system, music, and creature design! Felt like it kinda went under the radar, but I think it's worth a quick play!

Creator/Content Spotlight

(Some cool stuff I saw recently)

Coming Up Next...

• A game with @yurikadry and @teravex for Madness Day!
• Mina Miner 2 with @teravex and @icy64 (not breakout clone I promise)

...and perhaps a project with you? If you're an artist/animator with a 2d game idea, feel free to hit me up! I want to start making quality games from now on, but it's hard to do that with stock assets I find online (I can't draw lmao). Certain projects I'll do for free, complicated projects may require compensation (or might just be rejected outright if I'm incapable of making it). I work in Construct 3 now, so I'm capable of making web games, standalone games, and android games!

Okay that's all for now. I just kinda wanted to gas up Yuri for being so talented and kinda got carried away. Have a good day NG!

Welcome to Eggtopia!

• Play games to earn coins!
• Use coins to hatch Egglings!
• Collect all 20!
• Earn coins over time by caring for your Egglings at home!

Howdy Newgrounds! For the Newgrounds Egg Game Jam, I've teamed up with @Teravex and @YuriKadry to create Eggtopia: Critter Collector! My intention was to make a sort of neopets/tamogachi hybrid game where you could hatch critters and care for them, while also exploring a world and playing minigames.

We had to reduce the scope of the idea for the sake of the time constraint, but there were a ton of really fun ideas we wanted! There was going to be a training gym and arena, where you could teach attacks to your egglings to use in online multiplayer pokemon-esque combat! There would also be a lot more locations and minigames to play. We'd like to make a full version of this game someday, so hopefully we can make this game everything we wanted it to be! Let us know if you'd be interested!

For now, play through 4 minigames to earn coins! Use those coins to hatch eggs! Can you collect all 20 creatures? Make sure to check up on them at home from time to time, doing so gives you more coins!

I got to contribute a couple tracks for BLOOD MOON, a game by Plufmot and Stepford! It's the perfect blend of simplicity and replayability! Can you build a shelter in time? There are some nasty things that go bump in the night!

Sorry for not posting any news for over a month, but I didn't feel like I had anything important to say.

Pico's Arcade 1.1 Update!

It's not much, but I spent a good chunk of time today working on a slot machine. I hope yall enjoy it! I've officially scrapped the Alien Hominid, Impossible Game, and Game Builder minigames, and tbh I think Pico's Arcade is reaching the end of it's life so I'm not sure how many more updates I'll be making. I have a few rough ideas but no assets, and honestly I'm directing my attention towards future projects that I want to make with patience and polish.

Thanks to everyone who played and provided feedback for Pico's Arcade!

1K Fans!!! Thank You All So Much!

When I created this account in 2013, my goal was to reach 1000 fans. The first few years saw some decent growth, about 100 a year. Then my growth declined for a few years, but this year it exploded with the release of Pico's Arcade! I've gotten more followers in the past 2 months than I have in the past few years, and I can't thank you all enough! I hope I can keep you all entertained with my future content! What would you like to see from me in 2021-2022?

What's Next

• I have a few solo game projects in limbo that need finishing or scrapping, a 2D version of SuperHot that still needs levels designed, a 3D zombie shooter that runs terribly in webgl builds, and two potential sequels to Billy Bob. I don't feel very motivated to work on any of these because they're sloppy and unpolished (as is my signature style apparently lol), so I think I might just throw them in the trash and focus on more promising projects worth my time and effort.

• @Icy64, @TeraVex and I have begun preproduction on the sequel to Mina Miner: Dig Deep! We're taking our time with it, so it'll be a while yet, but our brainstorming sessions are very promising and I'm excited to start development!

• I've been fiddling with VR in Unity, might make something cool idk ;)

• Music-wise, I don't have much going on. I'm gonna make an effort to work on albums as a whole coherent concept, instead of making one song at a time until I have ~10 and just slapping some art on it and calling it an album. If you missed it, check out this dope DnB track I made for Pico Day! It's a slapper :3

Wanna Make a Game? Hit Me Up!

I'm eager to work on more projects, but my lack of artistic ability leaves me limited by the assets I can cobble up from the web. If you're an artist/animator with a game idea and want to make it a reality, let me know! If it's within my skill range, we can get to work immediately :3

Follow These Peeps

Now that I'm r̶i̶c̶h̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶f̶a̶m̶o̶u̶s̶ moderately successful, I gotta try and boost my music buddies! It's kind of criminal that these people haven't hit 1K fans yet, so make it happen 🆖ang!
