What a great way to end 2025. Congratulations to all the winners!
I’m down to participate!
I wish it still existed. I loved feeling like I owned retro games.
My name used to be UltraGamerAustin because I used to make videos with that name for a little while from mid 2023 til early 2025 and also my name is Austin. I’m not active on that channel anymore and I rebranded it to my current name “Anamonator”. I came up with the name Anamonator because I wanted to shift away from gaming and have a name that can be used more universally. And I also wanted to be an animator too. I guess my name sounds like “An animator” but I was thinking something completely different at the time.

They're one of the biggest K-pop groups right now. I was actually shocked to see this, did not know FNF had that kind of pull
I’m not really into K pop but it’s still cool that FNF is working with these big names.
Years :3
I've never heard of the band that the FNF team is collaborating with but I liked it.
I tried this goal last year and failed so I’m gonna try again.
Have an appealing and consistent art style and try out new poses and get better with pose construction.
Happy New Year Tom! It’s gonna be a great year.

Let's all hope for the supporters to reach 10,000.

Thanks for that, it's been cool to see it get 12k likes! We had around 9,530 Supporters when I made the recap post and are currently at 9,632.
It's sad to see the haters come out in response to posts like that. It's weird to me that people will say stuff like "bad business model" and "companies shouldn't run on charity" when like... Isn't the whole problem that every service and product is getting increasingly shitty to chase down that extra dollar?
Twitter users aren't known for their logical takes. I mean, saying a company shouldn't run on charity whilst using a platform funded by a billionaire is just bizarre.
What? We should only use platforms funded by tech oligarchies now? I'm sure that will work out well...
Yeah I saw brandy’s tweet. There was literally a user on Twitter who trains Ai saying the exact same thing. Bro is feeding their talents to a fucking machine.
No this is just a random Ai bro from Twitter that responded to Brandy’s tweet.

2025 was a great year for Newgrounds. There have been a lot of memories made this year. We even got to celebrate Newgrounds turning 30. And we still yearn for GTA 6.
See you all in 2026!

1- This event was intended to expand participation to minors, but we're excluding a certain niche.
2- Being minors also means there's a lower skill level, and therefore, many don't have scout status, which affects the potential number of participants.
By the way, participation ends on December 18th, or at the beginning?
On December 18th. And next year we’ll probably consider letting unscouted minors join. Because not a lot of people joined because of that.
