I'll hopefully have some t shirts to hand out at TMG with a newgrounds logo I've been working on!

Hey guys I had an amazing time at Pico Day in Jersey and just wanted to catch up with ya'll! @7chains and I picked up @blakenator9872 from the philly airport and then made my way over to @smugerryarugerry. We got to pico day a little early and mingled with everyone in the lobby sharing stickers. Smug then did pushups for everyone destroying any sort of record and obliterating all competition. I think one of the coolest parts about pico day was I got the chance to make the DVD art for @pukebomb's first animation compilation. Thank you so much guys for letting me do that I was really amped about it!

I'm really sorry I didn't get a chance to talk to everyone, but I'll be reaching out to anyone I can remember and please feel free to comment if we met too!

Thanks @raviolibox for talking with me and 7chains real quick you're incredibly nice!

@brandybuizel Thank you for organizing this annnnnnnd everyone else who helped to bring us all together for a crazy night!

Quick picture of Blake 7chains and I at the Philly airport (at like 5 am)

I'll update this post when I get the pics of smug and us!

Hey guys I'm so sorry I've been gone for a long time I've been going through a lot and finally have been able to get myself situated and stable!!! I'm gonna be posting way more on here and actually be active starting today!!! I had a brief break from social media just so I could focus on some other important things IRL. I can't wait to see you guys for the pico day meetup it means so much to me to be able to grow as an artist and meet new faces while having a blast. I love seeing all your guys new work and what you're up to!

If you're wondering where a lot of my art went I ended up deleting a lot of stuff I didn't like or didn't feel I tried hard enough on.

Also I wanted to show you guys a tile that was submitted, but was in a file that wouldn't open properly. I was able to get it into the Collab and post it here so people can see it! Thanks so much to @Exlhk for the submission

This year for pixel day we will be celebrating with a Newgrounds themed pixel collab this can be themed with any characters animations or pretty much anything you can find on Newgrounds! (Very important to stick with the theme). We are going to be sticking with the color palette from last collab since we all seemed to like that one. Basically we're doing a skyscraper type of collab where everyone does a floor and together it makes a building when stacked on top of each other. Instead we're gonna go DOWNWARD and show the depths of the Newgrounds office and what goes on underneath

We would love to add as many floors to the image as possible but the max image capacity is gonna be capped at 40. If this sounds fun and you're interested read below!

----THE COLLAB DETAILS AND BASIC RULES---

We have 39 spaces available so it's first come first serve!

---all artists who are apart of the collab will be put into a list at the bottom of this page confirming you are in the collab---

The Template is 256x144, they have a border around them for you already. You just have to fill in the blank space!

(-this border is to help establish the underground setting and help everyone's tile cohesively blend together-)

(I will edit it later once completed so it is much less static looking) 

---Basic Rules---

(-) We will be working in the bubblegum 16 color palette located below for download

(-) The first tile is the Newgrounds office building. (This has been taken already by @tanktheta)

(-) Every tile (floor) below it is a floor in the "Newgrounds office basement"

(-) Each tile must be Newgrounds themed in some sort of way this was stated earlier but I'm just putting it here again in case people missed this detail!

(-) the template has a border that represents the concrete surrounding your basement floor. Do not edit this you must draw within the borders for the effect to work best!

(-) Each tile will be styled as if it were a floor of a building however you do that is completely up to you, examples are down below for some different styles/inspiration

(-) Each artist has until January 21st to complete their tiles(floors)!

(-) Each artist must be scouted in the art portal!

SUBMITTING

(-) send me the png or aseprite file via dm!

-------Perspective------

(-) you can use 3d perspective or any sort of perspective, as the borders (in the template) and animation we are planning on using will help create the illusion of elevator doors opening to your art! The only sort of point you're trying to get across is you're staring into a room of some sort. 

TL:DR

We will be trying to get as many of these done as possible so if you're interested please DM me and we can get you assigned to one of the templates!

---if you have played hotel city or other skyscraper sims it'll be formatted like that!---

some examples on this sort of style are available below

Wish I was able to get there earlier in the day and stay a little longer but i had to drive from work and get home early :(, but it was awesome just getting to bullshit with ya guys! have a great holiday season everyone and eat lotsa turkey or birds or something.

Recently Started learning how to use unity 2d It's not easy for my smol brain to handle. We (we as in a bunch of ghouls and goblins that have gotten together for a lil pixel tile thing) also have a pixel collab that should be done in the next few months once art and coding is finished! I recently did the loss collab from the cool dude @sageisreal so thanks for letting me participate! Other than that have this dead space meme I made

Thank you so much guys I just wanted to make an appreciation post for all the support you guys show me on here!

Thank you everyone seriously I’ve been a recluse for the past year and a half and when I heard about a newgrounds meetup and it was only 5 minutes away I had to go! I was like time to actually socialize! It was so so so amazing to see everyone and get to say hi newgrounds has been apart of me since I was a wee little lad in middle school. It felt actually really cool to be able to tell @tomfulp that newgrounds was there for me and my friends during computer class to goof off on. I still remember my friend showing me an eddsworld animation and then Leo and Satan on here instantly got me hooked. @vividlance gave out these badass newgrounds bracelets! I was able to get a dog tag too but I recently changed my name lol it’s fine it’s still a great memory to have with me. Again thank you so much @CorTat-G for organizing this whole thing it means a lot to all of us I’m sure. @phantomarcade even took a selfie with me and it kinda made me feel like alive again like I could get out of the house and not feel like shit so thank you guys it means the world to me that you’re my friends and I cannot wait for the next meetup! Also yo @moawling had this crazy electronic portfolio and I was able to get a peek at it deadass coolest thing I’ve seen in a while dudes. Also thank you @docng and @milkypossum and @tomfulp for signing my poster it’s gonna get framed soon! I’m very sorry if I didn’t get a chance to say hi I’m very shy/ have social anxiety so it was a little bit difficult to say hi to everyone CANT WAIT FOR NEXT YEAR !!!!!
