“YO YOU GUYS STILL ACCEPTING NEW TAGLINE SUBMISSIONS?”

@EdChar

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Good Morning Newgrounds! Welcome to The Tank Tribune! The only newspaper that gives Wegra an outlet. I’m looking forward to catching up on a lot of Newgrounds stuff going forward, especially with The Interviewer, which has been an abandoned project since May of last year. I’m looking to expand The Tank Tribune into more of an online zine, similar to what the Newgrounds Mag used to be. I want to show off the many creators and people on Newgrounds. I hope this is the best way to do that. With all that out of the way, here are the hip happenings of Newground!

@EwanDoggieNG is hosting a collaboration based off of PaRappa the Rapper. He’s a huge PaRappa the Rapper fan, even including a parody in his series Stupidly Stupid, Episode 5 - Nyan KITTY!. Below are the guidelines for the collab.

RULES

1. Anything that is considered M or A rated isn't allowed. Please do not make NSFW for this collab.
2. Please make your own submission.
3. Please do not add slurs into this collab. The R-slur is okay if it isn't directed at disabled people.
4. Please don't add your watermark. Don't worry, I'll add your username at the bottom left. If you're using FlipaClip, try to screen record the animation from FlipaClip instead of exporting it which causes the dreaded FlipaClip watermark.
5. Do not use any type of copyrighted material. You can use songs from the PaRappa soundtrack, make your own, or use the audio portal.
6. Please do not make your animation gory enough that it reaches the M rating.
7. Yes, you can swear.
8. Please do NOT make ANY joke about tragedies.
9. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, or anything else that offends a human group.
10. Live-action isn't allowed.
11. Claymation is allowed.
12. Animation is allowed. (duh!)
13. You can only submit ONE entry.
14. The minimum resolution is 480p, while the maximum is 1080p.
15. Your submission can be between 20 seconds and 5 minutes.
16. You gotta believe!

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

You can DM me your animation! If you don't know how to DM the animation, follow these steps:

1. Send a message to EwanDoggieNG using this link.
2. Name your message "PaRappa The Rapper Collab Submission"
3. Upload your submission to a file sharing site. (e.g. MediaFire, Google Drive (make the video public in Google Drive), CatBox, FileDitch, unlisted YouTube video)
4. When the file has finished uploading to the file sharing site, copy the link that has your video and paste it to the message.
5. Send the message.
6. Boom! You're done.

If the submission is accepted by EwanDoggieNG, he’ll message you with the subject will be "Accepted". If it's rejected, the subject will be "Rejected".

The Deadline for the contest is July 8th, 2025 at 12:00 AM AEST.

🧀 CHEESE WORLD 🧀

An album by Newgrounds Supa Dupa. Members are @heyopc and @Droid. With Backing Vocals by @MZZA and Woodwinds by @poptaffy. It was released back in 2021, it was Frontpaged, yet it has slipped under the radar. If you haven’t listened to this incredible piece from the Audio Portal you need to.

@RileyWiggleWood has been on Newgrounds for almost one year now. You may have been introduced to them through their first Frontpage feature The Magician's Brick. Their style harkens back to the Ultima and King’s Quest series. Their first Portal award was the Daily 4th Place for The Dark Summoning. Their first Daily Feature would be for The Magic Lamp. If you haven’t seen their series you can click the image above to go to the official playlist or the selected entries below.

Interview Guest Suggestions

@KJBurbankVA is a voice actor here on Newgrounds for almost a year now. He has lent his voice to MONKEY BALLZ, Kriller Equal: Episode 1- Pilot, and Knuckles Solves Everything (Sonic Parody). He has started a podcast called CUT IT OUT!. You can check it out by clicking the link above to see his interview with @SrPelo.

KJBurbankVA is looking for suggestions on who to have on his podcast next. If you have any recommendations then leave them in a comment on his news post.

This week’s featured artist is @BasicFool. He’s been on Newgrounds since 2017. He’s been blowing up the Art Portal lately with both 2D and 3D works. Check out his works below and give him a follow.

Anime conventions are becoming POPULAR now which means MORE posers and thus PRICES GO UP FOR TICKETS and now I can barely afford them thanks to popular thing >:(

Viewtiful Joe or God Hand should have gotten a new game before Ōkami

How come King Koopa had command of King Warts minions in the Mario Super Show?

The Matrix movies are catered towards millennial methheads and polyamorous couples, oh and obviously conspiracy theorists

Where does it say that Phoenix Wright and Edgeworth are gay?????

PIC OF THE WEEK

@ShadenLines

Takeover Tuesday is when Supporters can feature one item on the Frontpage from the Movie, Game, Audio, or Art Portals. Today we’re looking at the Takeover Tuesday Playlist of @ShangXian. Click on the Takeover Tuesday banner to go to the playlist. Below are a few selected entries from their playlist. If you want your Takeover Tuesday entries shared on The Tank Tribune, make a playlist and share it here!

The week can get people down sometimes. With all of the hustle and bustle and action packed drama that entails our lives, sometimes it's nice to just kickback and relax. This week we’re taking a look at some of the Chess games here on Newgrounds!

If a game is not loading properly for you, then install the Newgrounds Flash Player. There are instructions on how to do so. If it is still not working or you don't understand, create a thread in the Where is / How to / Help! Forum for assistance.

It has been a rough couple of months. I won't lie. Things are getting back to a state of normalcy. I’m able to be the workhorse I was known for on this site once again. Aalasteir has held that throne for too long. I still need to fill judge roles for the Newgrounds Treasure Hunt this year. That will start in June and hopefully all the judges' scores will be tabulated in June as well if everything goes well. Here’s to next week and many other projects along the way.

The Tank Tribune is a part of Dohn's Desk Productions
