Also I fully intend to participate in my own collab
Hey! I'm hosting a collab for the first time, and this is it!
Basically, you have to make an E RATED track (song, piece, idc. The point is that it's music) based upon a scientific principle, science-related mechanism, theory, ect. Name it after that thing that it's based on, and then when you upload it make sure to use the tag "SMC-2026"
The deadline is Feb 25th (That means a month and 1 week from now!), at which point submissions WILL BE CLOSED. On Feb 28th I'll release a playlist containing all of y'all's songs. I'm so excited to see what y'all make!
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ASK THEM IN THE COMMENTS, DONT PM ME UNLESS YOU HAVE TO (you won't)

Do you like Hollow Knight? Do you like making OCs? Yes you do.
In this collab, I'd like to put together a field guide of fan-made arthropod characters, along with descriptions of the characters and associated items like artifacts, tools, pets, etc.
These aren't going to be just animalistic-style bugs, these are fully sapient bug species, bugs that are part of kingdoms, societies, anarcho syndicalist communes, that kind of stuff.
Your character can be any kind of insect, arachnid, or other arthropod. Hell, make a clown cult full of mantis shrimp, if that's your thing.
Now for the rules.
Here's an example of a finished page, you do not have to have the same colour scheme/theme that I used, but it does have to be in a similar format.
Can you tell I've been playing Morrowind?
Feel free to ask any questions, now go out there and get your creative juicies expunging.
Man just when I was planning to try and host a hollow knight collab xD
I'll try to make something for this. Excited to see what all gets made!

The "retro" vibe has always been big. 8 bit is currently the "retro" thing. One day VR and stuff will probably be "retro." So basically, I don't know xD

Later on, I made a Newgrounds account and called it "FlickeringOffSwitch" because just "OffSwitch" was already taken. I made an alt for that account later that year. Anyway, I lost the first account soon after and had to use this one. I'm gonna have to pay to change it sometime.
hate when that kind of thing happens. :(

Or even 4...? xD
I'll probably participate in Pixel Day with a chiptune or something.
Also,
If your work is making its world premier on Pixel Day, you are eligible for our prize competition!
*Ahem Ah-i think it might be 'premiere'-em* *Cough Cough*
Sorry, think I had something in my throat lol

Make a thing in 4/4 containing mostly 5 bar phrases. Use a tubular bell to signal the end of each phrase. That helpful?
Yeah that helps! I might use that concept to help me develop an idea I've had for a while, but have been having trouble fleshing out. Thanks!

Beethoven, easily. Any others? (Specific songs also count)

Top hats ARE fashionable and classy.

"DantesGrill" is honestly awesome. I've thought of names similar before ("DantesInferno", "DantesBushFire", "DantesFirepit", ect), but yours is superior.

I created this account as an alternative, and I chose this nickname when I just typed random letters and numbers, lol. But it's been a while, now it's my main nickname.
Was kinda expecting it to mean something, but that's what I get for expecting stuff lol

Pretty straightforward xD
Does the audio section have one of these? I cant find one
I like this one:
And I'm now determined to get this one FPd eventually lol:
Silksong should've gotten best soundtrack easily. Christopher Larkin rocks
