"THE BEST THING SINCE THE PRINTING PRESS"

@GlassPen123




LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Good Morning Newgrounds! I don’t have a lot of time to write a letter to all of you. I’ve been dealing with my gums aching in my mouth. I need to stop and rest some. Orajel, saltwater, and whiskey have been my friends lately.

The-Great-One

A long time ago, before The Interviewer was on Newgrounds, there was a site called Newgrounds Mag. It had news about the site, demos of future Newgrounds games, previews and trailers for big Newgrounds animations, and interviews with some of Newgrounds famous creators called Developer Spotlight. Newgrounds Mag was shut down after one of Newgrounds Redesigns. Luckily every interview in their entirety has been archived here on Newgrounds!

Anyone have a Steam Deck yet?


@Wegra has had a Steam Deck for over a year now and absolutely loves it! Multiple users have also noted they own one. Perhaps Newgrounds could get together to play some games on Steam. If you own a Steam Deck, share in the thread alongside the games you play on Steam.




For OG Gamers that lived in 2000-2010, what was like there? In gaming and general


@MaverickJester wants to know how gamers felt about gaming in the years 2000-2010. There’s a whole decade where the end of one generation, another generation came and went, and a third generation carried the torch that would revive the console wars. Plus PC gaming was becoming more relevant and accessible. If you were a gamer during this time, share your stories.

God... Four days until clock day... i wasted three weeks trying to download adobe just to make my own animation and guess what, still trying... another nice magazine, as always.

Keep up with the news, Doc.

Love seeing these every week, keep up the great work =]

@ZekeWatson I dunno, it’s just a different aggregation of what’s already out there, it’s not like he’s going “HEY COME BULLY THESE GUYS” or something

I've already made some stuff for clock day and robot day, I hope everyone will have tons of fun!

Another wonderful piece in the catalogue, The-Great-One. I found the pic of the week and the quotes especially funny. I'm gonna need the context for the reason why Mr. Charles M. Cheese is hiding behind the faucet though.

This is better then the real news papers!

I'm always very appreciateive to appear in the Phonograph on these things. I share this on my socials as well. Thank you for listening, not just to my music, but to every up-and-coming creator here on Newgrounds. The Tank Tribune really whole-heartedly cares about the Newgrounds community. Thanks Tank Tribune!

oh hell yeah. This is awesome

a newspaper idea is so cool!! i hope ur gums feel better <33

@TheMusicalManiac hi so that's me in the picture, i had just gotten done with a really bad performance(audience wise) and i needed to take a minute of silence and introspection after dealing with some of the most feral children on the planet. coworker took a picture of that moment, and it had been circling around the employees for a bit until it finally got back to me. turned into my all-time favorite picture afterwards LOL

@TheNorf Goodness! Glad you made it out okay. At least I know even the mascot of his own franchise can't handle rowdy kids. Maybe that ought to be put on a poster to show the kids "Be nice to the mouse!" lol

Epic! Though i wouldn’t use whiskey in order to help ur gums feel better, if anything I think whiskey makes it worse, since whiskey is a bunch of fermented grains such as wheat, which then is put into hot water to release starches, which are then mashed until they become fermented sugars, and I assume sugars are what caused the gums to hurt in the first place.?

I wouldn’t advise using whiskey to help gums, but saltwater is definitely good way to heal your gums! I hope you feel better soon mate! Keep it up!

For sure, this Mouse seen some sh*t on the work, truly.
The top is TOP) congrats everyone :)

everything, truly full of booty, thank you and keep them rolling baby.

Thanks, Newgrounds, for letting me host the Art-Inspired Music Contest each year. It's always exciting to see people turning out for the contest each year and hearing new tracks. I appreciate the space that has been provided for a wonderful audio community.

I was accidentally part of the reason why that is the pic of the week lol

We need the general forum back, I miss being featured on the user Pic of the week

WOWIE!

Thank you very much for the shout out!! It is an honor >:). plenty more jams to come.
