The official thread of my collaborative podcast

If you read our Podcast section last week then you will know that @HavryloThePigeon is working on a new collaborative project. An audio serial entitled Nol's Therapy Mansion. There are more details in the thread and he is looking for more collaborations from Newgrounds! The first two episodes are out now!

DOWNTOWN DUNGEON CHAPTER 4

@VIDEAJAMES has released the next chapter of his web comic Downtown Dungeon. It is up for free to read! Check out this series!

Drawn anything recently?

@LucaTheHuman is an artist and is wondering if you have drawn anything recently. Could be a work-in-progress, a completed work, a doodle, anything. Doesn't matter if art is your hobby or if you were just scribbling. Share it with Newgrounds!

Gonna Be More Active

@Pervyangel is looking to be more active here on Newgrounds. He has been busy with his Patreon, some things going on in life, and his DeviantArt winding down.

Parappa Newgrounds Collab

@jelly07 and @Zalay are looking to start a Newgrounds Collab. They are looking to make one based off of PaRappa the Rapper, both the video game and anime. If you're interested in joining then send a Demo Reel of your past works to either jelly07 or Zalay.

@Jazza would bring us his contribution to Pico Day 2006 with an anthem. It is how I start celebrating each Pico Day. With this momentous occasion just around the corner, I thought it fitting to reminisce with this Pico Day submission.

RIP Adam Perkins

Although not Newgrounds related, it is sad to see another Internet personality die. Adam Perkins passed away. The cause of death hasn't been disclosed. He was a Vine star best known for his Welcome to Chili's Vine.

NG Games you can play with a controller?

@BronzeHeart92 is looking for any games on Newgrounds that can be played with a controller instead of the keyboard. Back in 2009 @MindChamber made a post entitled Quit Playing Flash Games on your KeyBoard!. It is an old news post so with updates the video tutorials are no longer there. It is something to look into if you're interested.

So Piss is back on Newgrounds

@Wegra has noted the return of one of Newgrounds veteran users, @Piss. The Tank Tribune issues him a hearty Welcome Back!

A LOOK BACK AT THREADS OF THE PAST

The Push For Pico Day!

@Galloglasses came up with the idea to celebrate one of Newgrounds mascots. The creation of Tom Fulp, Pico. Pico is to Newgrounds what Mickey Mouse is to Disney. Pico Day is an important holiday here on Newgrounds. A celebration of Pico and his friends, the TANKMEN, and other Newgrounds iconic characters. This was an idea back in 2005. We have celebrated Pico Day since then.

After six long years

Of contributing nothing

Time to do more stuff

Work has been hell the past few days. Sunday while I was slicing I had numbness in my left hand that went through my arm. My heart started doing crazy stuff and I had trouble breathing. I pinched a nerve in my wrist which messed with blood flow and through my system out of whack. The doctor believes I am in the beginning stages of carpal tunnel syndrome. I am currently wearing a wrist brace with a thumb stint in it and I have to follow up with a doctor going forward. I am resting my wrist as much as possible going forward so please be patient with my writings going forward. Thank you all for reading and sorry for the delay in the paper, but out of all the things to delay it, overwhelming traffic on Newgrounds is a wonderful way for it to crash.

[ DISCORD ]

@HavryloThePigeon has brought us a new radio show to enjoy! He was gathering ideas for it and has released two episodes. It is called Nol's Therapy Mansion. It is Zeph. He got a business card for Nol's Therapy Mansion. He is hypnotized to travel through the mystical land of Zodkoon to find out that Nol is not there. He will meet strange people and find weird locations with cryptic clues on finding Nol in hopes of fixing his sleep paralysis problems. Give it a listen later on.

These are the people who make Newgrounds possible. Thank you!

SUPPORTER OF THE WEEK

@Afro-Ninja

One of Newgrounds veterans and long time Supporters. Afro-Ninja has been supporting Newgrounds since 2012! Even more so before that! When the Newgrounds Store was still operational, he purchased a ton of gear! He has always contributed money towards the many Jams and Contests here on the site. Although he wasn't the one to create the Escape Room games on the Internet, he most certainly defined and perfected them, which is now the standard today. His works have inspired tons of Newgrounds creators. Thank you Afro-Ninja for all the time and dedication you have given to Newgrounds and its users.

A LOOK BACK AT THREADS OF THE PAST

Wii Virtual Console Thread 2.0

When the Nintendo Wii was selling like hotcakes, one of the best features on it was the Virtual Console. You could buy old NES, SNES, and N64 games on it for sure. There were also Sega Master System, Sega Genesis, Arcade, and TurboGrafx-16 games on it as well. A lot of these games you could experience for the first time! @The-Great-One made a Wii Virtual Console thread in the past. It was updated though with this revival thread to include suggested titles, an Editor's Pick, and when the Nintendo 3DS released to highlight the Virtual Console games on it which were handheld titles for the Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, and Sega Game Gear as well! It lasted a long time! Sadly the Virtual Console is no more and the Nintendo Switch with the NES Classic and SNES Classic is nice, but it doesn't hold a candle to what its predecessor did.

Another Day Done

Man, Thursdays are hard.

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Good Morning Newgrounds! I wish I could say that with complete confidence, but there has been some troubling times here on Newgrounds lately. We had some laughs for April Fool's Day for sure and I hope you enjoyed the Tribune's trip back in time. Sadly though some users are going through turmoil and I humbly ask for your patience and understanding for them and to reach out to help if you can. That goes for any user on here. It is incredible that you can ask for help here and you will receive it. We are not trained therapists by any measure. We are open ears though. With that said, here's the hip happenings on Newgrounds.

THEME SONG BY @sorohanro

FEATURED COMPOSERS

UPCOMING COMPOSERS

THE LATEST FROM THE FOUNDER AND CEO OF NEWGROUNDS @TomFulp

Pianorte (1994-2021)

@lokidnb informed us that one of our newest users and a dear friend to him @Pianorte passed away after being in a car crash. Before this event The Tank Tribune had featured two of his songs in the Phonograph. Since then all music from Pianorte has been taken from the site. He was new to the site and was already hitting his stride with his music. I fell in love with his music the moment I heard it browsing the Audio Portal. He will be missed. He is still included in the Featured Composers section even though his music has been removed. I'm sorry if anyone wasn't fortunate enough to hear his music. If you were fortunate enough to hear it or even talk with him, I am sorry for your loss. Rest in peace.

Pico's School

For April Fool's Day, Tom updated Pico's School to have non-violent gameplay with a nice story that has a happy ending. There is also a cameo from FRIDAY NIGHT FUNKIN' in it as well. The original has been put back, but you can play the updated version entitled Pico's School: Love Conquers All.

Pico Day May 1st - Prize Info!

Pico Day is just around the corner! There are prizes for movies, games, art, and music! If you haven't made something yet, now is the time to do so! Get out there and make something for Pico Day! Tom will appreciate it just as much!

We close off this week with a new series by @TmsT winning the Daily Feature. It's called Pupper Paleolithic Ep1: Leader of the Pack Out.

In the latest episode of The Newgrounds Podcast, the boys just sit around and shoot the shit essentially. @VoiceByCorey talks about a strange obsession involving @KawaiSprite. @Xinxinix discusses some midnight hijinks. @PsychoGoldfish talks about his hair... not the hair on his head though, and I'll leave it at that. @KyleJohnKenowski also stopped by and talked to them about his new animation and music!

LexRodent is one of Newgrounds finest supporters. Always there to help the new composers that come to Newgrounds.

They can spot something that shouldn't be incredibly well! If you're looking to post your music on Newgrounds and are afraid something might happen to it or your works, LexRodent is the Audio Moderator to talk to.

Hey, how about a game?

@LegendaryPanettone recently brought up that once again there were bots on Newgrounds, sending people messages about playing a game. It is quite obvious. I feel it is important though to give a word of caution to those. If you receive a link inviting you to play a game from a Newgrounds user, make absolutely sure that it is a link from Newgrounds and that it looks the way it is supposed to. DO NOT FOLLOW SUSPICIOUS LINKS! If it doesn't look like one of the following below then DO NOT CLICK IT! Also check the profile of the user, chances are it will be new and have nothing posted.

Long ago back in 2002. Before @Noodle made This Week on Newgrounds. Before @TheNewgroundsPodcast. Before The Tank Tribune. @looneyboy221133 brought us Newgrounds News.

There has been a lot going on Newgrounds lately. With the FRIDAY NIGHT FUNKIN' Jam and Flash Forward Jam wrapped up with Pico Day on the horizon. Madness Day will be here before you know it. If you're reading this and have been hesitant to post your work on Newgrounds out of fear of what people will say. Abandon that fear and just post it. Because in this world you only get one life and you are never promised tomorrow. Get your works out there and grow. Don't move too slowly either. That has been a regret of mine for years now. I don't want any of you to carry that same burden. It weighs on you more than you will ever know. I hope you all enjoy your morning.

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Good Morning Newgrounds! This month just sort of flew by didn't it? Easter is just around the corner and not long after that we'll be at Pico Day before you know it! We've had some birthday celebrations last week! Bringing the legacy of Egoraptor back to life with a new generation. Honoring one of Newgrounds dedicated moderators and biggest fans! Remaking a classic during the era of the beard. Taking note of other podcasts here on Newgrounds. The Phonograph moving forward will be a hint of who will start next week. The last song not counting the outro Paper Dragon, will be the composer who starts next week's Phonograph. That's just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. Here are the hip happenings of Newgrounds!

This week we're featuring a different podcast. One that has died out back in 2019. It is @BenTibbetts podcast. He talks about music, creative processes, and there's some wonderful music played as well. It is certainly one for you to check out.

These are the people who make Newgrounds possible. Thank you!

SUPPORTER OF THE WEEK

@Malachy

Where to start with Malachy. One of the most helpful members of the site and most helpful moderators. After Rage came in with his thread for flagging abusive reviews got out of control, Malachy took it upon himself to come in and help clean up the mess on two separate occasions and still gives help to the reviewers of Newgrounds. Always looking to give support and help to those on the site in anyway he can. If he doesn't have the answer to your question, you can bet your ass that he knows who does. He is also one of the most highly underrated funny people on the site.

"this place is my home, man. This is where I landed when I started internetting way back in the day. I love the community and the content and Tom. I'm not fartistic by any sense but it makes my heart happy to see young folks get gud at it and do amazing things. If I can have a small part in supporting the next generation of video game developers, musicians, artists and animators then it is worth every cent."

Injuries (1999) - Fake Album

brethesheep

Back in the late 2000's gas prices were at quite the high peak in a lot of areas. Ranging from $2.50 a gallon to over $4 or $5 a gallon depending on where you live. It was a problem for everybody in the country who were looking to get back to work at any job they could during the recession. Once you finally have the job and have to scramble for hours, most of your paycheck went into your gas tank. SardonicSamurai had a poetic yet disturbing way of venting his feelings about this period.

"It seems like any popular flash I make is created due to me venting. A group of friends wanted to go hang out in an area that was around 30-45 minutes away. I really wanted to go, but gas was $4.00+ and I had no money to fill my tank up. Instead of going out to party with friends, I created that flash as a joke. I was the voice actor for the Dollar, as well as every other character I've ever animated. I don't like asking for voice actors help, and I have a wide range of voices. I've constantly been told by friends to get into voice acting, and I'm just now starting to take those people seriously. I'm looking for a new microphone and hope to start voicing other peoples animations as well as my own!"

I've tried to convert to an early bird and I just can't do it. It goes against my nature so much. It's back to burning the midnight oil for me. Good news for all of you though, because now I can the paper to you before 5AM once again! Hope you all enjoy your morning! I'll see all of you again after Easter... or will I?

This is typically where we showcase a piece of Newgrounds history from the Flash Portal, which is now just called The Portal for short. However we still have a ton of submission that are Under Judgement. Today I want everybody who reads the paper to go to The Portal and help clear up as many submissions as you can. What should stay on Newgrounds and what shouldn't. You as a Newgrounds Member have that choice during this phase. Every submission that gets posted to Newgrounds has to go through this phase no matter what.

This morning we officially debut the Matinee. It has been a feature in the past, but will be interchanged with the Console going forward. To start off this week, Tom noticed there have been a lot of cool movies here on Newgrounds that were not FRIDAY NIGHT FUNKIN' themed so he decided to highlight some in the thread Non-Funkin' Movies and asked others to share some new movies that have missed the spotlight. The Tank Tribune has collected his findings into this morning's Matinee. I hope you enjoy.

Sorry there was a delay with this issue. Scheduling conflicts at work made it to where I had to pump out a lot of this last night and sleep was required soon after. There is some exciting stuff coming next week for the Tribune though as well as a surprise for the upcoming Pico Day. If you're not a Follower on The Tank Tribune then become one and don't miss out on the big things coming!

SUPPORTER OF THE WEEK

@Mich

Mich is a musician who has been with Newgrounds for over ten years now. Since he started here on Newgrounds not only did he grow and learn, but he has been here to help other musicians throughout his time. He used Newgrounds as a way to build his craft.

"Personally I feel like I owe a lot of good things in my life to NG. I met my partner because of NG and we've been together for nearly 9 years. It indirectly also got me onto my career path, and got me into music production. I've also made a bunch of friends through here.

In summary I can't picture what my life would be like if it wasn't for NG's involvement."

ARTIST NEWS

! CAUTION ! : Careful With Commissions

@Phobotech did a commissioned piece of art for an older member on the site named Chronamut. Phobotech made a thread weighing out his options. @The-Great-One made a thread in the Art Forum to caution artists when it comes to rights on commissions. @SourCherryJack replied in the thread with some useful advice alongside a template for a contract. Keep in mind this contract is built specifically for the United States of America. If you're an artist offering commissions, keep your wits about and be careful.

NG Orchestral Composition Contest 2021!

If you're competing in this contest, today is the deadline to enter your submission! Add your finishing touches and post it to the Audio Portal!

This week's featured artist is @PerKGrok. He has a style that I have seen in the past in old medieval and Christian artwork. It was always a style that I've enjoyed.

From Newgrounds twin animators, Markus Vad Flaaten and Tommy Vad Flatten, comes this story of two siblings looking to spend money on a gift. A simple concept, with amazing execution from beginning to end.

"The origins of this tale is actually a one-page comic we made for fun. It was called "Caz & P", and had 12 square pictures. Markus filled the first square, and I did the second, he the third, and so on. The concept was to not plan anything. I didn't know what Markus wanted to happen, and he didn't know what I was going to draw. There were two main characters: A guy with a cassette (audio tape) for a head (Caz), and one with a pear for a head (P). The heads were as large as their bodies, and their bodies looked like kid bodies. They didn't have eyes or facial details. The first square had them both standing next to eachother, and then they were talking and one of them god kidnapped by a giant flower. Basically.

Anyways, this comic was hanging on our wall, and I thought the characters were so cool that we ought to make an animation with them. So I told Markus and we started to script. The story was mainly my idea, and most of the scenes and ideas spawned when we were about to sleep. We wrote down a lot of ideas, both random and specific, big and small. And then we chose the best ideas and wrote a script with lines for each character. 75% of our ideas never made it into the animation!, by the way! We also planned what kind of music we wanted, what kind of backgrounds, what kind of drawing style and stuff. The thing we decided last was the ending."

Well I'll tell you. There were a lot of things I expected to be in this thread when I opened it. A literal interpretation was certainly not one of them.

PIC OF THE WEEK

@AKA-38CAUTION

A LOOK BACK AT THREADS OF THE PAST

This is it.

@sirtom93. What an event that was. This user said that he was going to burn down his school and use other forms of violence. He would later on state that it was a joke, but it wasn't taken as a joke. @WadeFulp entered the thread with the iconic line...

Leave this topic, authorities are being contacted.

From there, Newgrounds member @deckheadtottie was able to get a hold of the authorities where sirtom93 was. He was caught, arrested, put on trial, and served time in prison. Moderator @Rig detailed everything in this news post. Multiple games and movies came out after this event. One being How I Buy Petrol?. Newgrounds has contacts all over the world. We stick together. You make threats, we will bust you, and then we will laugh at you.
