Thread 714680431

Say happy birthday to this site that changed the internet, fellas!

guess who owns the gamecube now punkass

Why is it still around? Nobody uses it.

Did you know? The legendary NG flash animation, if you can even call it that, "B" by StrawberryClock, remembered for its random and nonsensical nature, was the namesake for 4chan's "random" board known as /b/.

How does Tom Flip keep NG alive?

I got a photo with Tom at PAX this year. I've talked a lot of shit about his website, but ultimately, there's nothing really wrong with Newgrounds just because it's most famous for giving birth to a bunch of jackass frat douchebags like Chris and Zach. Hopefully it continues to stay up so we can continue to have a colorful website with lots of personality to post our art on; I know I'll be using it a lot when I come back to drawing publicly.

>>714680431 (OP)
Happy B.Day, Newgrounds
Thanks for still letting me download .swfs and sourcing me some pics

>>714680782
It got a resurgence because of FNF

Best website
I really shouldn't have been on it so young

girlfriend sex

Happy Birthday Newgrounds!

>>714680431 (OP)
The more I think about it newgrounds was one of the most important websites on the internet. internet culture would've been wildly different had it never existed.

>>714681180
That's bullshit.

>>714680431 (OP)
simpler times.....

Zone-tan made me a coomer. Thanks newgrounds!

>alphoomers find out about NG
>they put everything behind a 18+ wall
fucking bullshit

>>714683153
tom (from ng and myspace) and moot are the only web 1.0 figures that didn't completely embarrass themselves

Is the game going to be in the same ball park as Nightmare Cops?

All I feel is regret, I should have made the shitty flashes back in the day. I missed out on the good part of the internet because I was a mess.

be the guy that makes newgrounds spam cool again

>>714684802
>moot
>didn't completely embarrass himself
lol

>>714680431 (OP)
I wonder how much Tom Fulp hates himself for fumbling the bag with Newgrouds. Could have been one of the bigger websites on the internet. But it refused to evolve. And now it's basically dead. Its only remnant of relevance comes form it giving birth to some ecelebs. How embarrassing.

>>714685335

>jeff and tom are almost 50
>cory is in his mid 30s
>still no nightmare cops

>>714680431 (OP)
thank you for opening the gate of gaming for me

>>714685690
anon the community is still alive and kicking till this day especially after fnf, Tom couldn't give any less of a shit if you have seen any modern video of him or post
He's makes games he likes with his friends, he clearly doesn't care about making Newgrounds some big website kek

>>714685690
evolve in what sense?
make horrible monetization?, use AI as staff instead of real people?

>>714680431 (OP)

They removed my 20 year old account two years ago. Fuck em.

>>714683543

I can hear him say BOOYA to this day.

>>714685873
Meant that he makes games, sorry

I hate how a lot of old flashes pressumably have been removed because of not having the proper license for music (like Youtube had), it was hard enough to find anything when they changed to google search. Now I will never find that Mario Dressup flash or that Mario DJ one

>>714684802
>moot
literally who?

Come forth my butt floes, open Hell's gate!

>>714685873
>Tom couldn't give any less of a shit
He definitely used to kick himself over Newgrounds falling out of relevance at some point. That's what he expressed on one of the Sleepycast episodes. But that was like a decade ago. Maybe he doesn't care as much these days.

>>714686179
(you)

>>714685875
>evolve in what sense?
Hard to say. But they had to change some things up once the traffic was going down. Apparently whatever they chose to do simply wasn't enough, given the current state of affairs.

>>714686235
From what I have seen, he is just a chill guy making games with his employees/friends
He seems happy, he also as a family and kids so there is that

Only 30 years?
Why does it feel like a lifetime ago.

>>714686391
Do you think Newgrounds is some barren wasteland or something? There are still people using it and making art and music and games and events till this day, both old and new

>>714685690
How would you evolve Newgrounds? You'd need significant investment, but that would turn it into some shitty social network, another Youtube or eventually open the floodgates for AI garbage.
Tom rejected all offers to sell Newgrounds and is resolved to run it his own way. He's currently operating it at a slight loss, but this is ultimately about principles, not becoming the most popular website.

>>714680431 (OP)
Thank you, you beautiful bastards for the all the retarded shit i've consumed in my youth instead of studing.
https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/127693

I remember back in probably 2004 seeing an animation in NG about MegaMan, Protoman and Zero in which they traveled across different games and Protoman was an angry retard and everything bad happened to him. I remember in one part they fought a DDR machine but with final fantasy mechanics. I cannot find that video anymore, does anyone know I'm talking about?

>>714682865
agreed

>>714686584
Loss?

>>714680431 (OP)
How do I search old flash games on Newgrounds? I don’t want 2010-2025

>>714686572
Come on now. Sure, Newgrounds still has a userbase, but it's not one of the bigger websites on the internet like it was back in the day.
>>714686584
>How would you evolve Newgrounds?
If I knew how to run a successful website, I wouldn't be shitposting on 4chins, I'd be raking in the dosh. But that doesn't preclude me from being able to observe that a website isn't nearly as popular as it once was, and concluding that whatever they did or didn't do simply didn't work very well to keep them relevant.

>>714687091
I don't think the internet was even that big back in the day from the first place

now that the dust has settled I think it's fair to say that 2000-2010 was the golden era of original content and though the tools have improved the content is somehow shitter now

>>714687407
The original content used to be better because the people who made it didn't grow up with original content from the internet.

>>714687407
The vast majority of it was garbage slop. You're looking at it through rose-tinted glasses.

>>714687630
This.

>>714687407
Better tools ironically lead to worse outcomes ironically enough because the creator doesn't need to even consider trying as hard. AIsloppa is a good example of this.

>>714680431 (OP)
Crappy site from an age that is better remembered than it actually was, made possible by that fact that things have actually gotten worse over time and all the past things, both good and bad, look better in comparison to what we have now. But things age, and sometimes things age poorly, and newgrounds is no exception to this.

>714688718
tsk tsk lil zoomie

The site peaked with this.

>>714682540
FNF is like 5 years old its a fad

>>714689608
IT FEELS SO GOOD AROUND MY DICK GUUUURL

It's being a while I don't visit that site... Feels Bad Man

>>714686683
cute flavor of gf

>>714682865
checked the kickstarter for fnf and saw the last update was from like a year ago and people complaining in the comment section about never receiving backer rewards and lack of updates. is it safe to say they just took the money and ran at this point? i mean i didn't back it so i don't care either way

>>714680431 (OP)
when did newgrounds start to die? i remember using it daily until 2004. then i slowly stopped visiting until i completely stopped in 2008 (i think). i just remember a lot of the main creators fucked off so new content was slower and of lower quality

>newgrounds is 30
fuck

>>714689840
anon it's still decently popular and the effect still lingers since it brought tons of newcomers to the site for better or worse and they are still there mostly
>>714691060
ENA, Spooky month and other stuff are all new and frankly of higher quality than most old stuff
doesn't mean I like them all more but it's the truth because of tech and generally creators putting more effort and shit like Patreon existing

>>714681180
/b/ got its name because at first 4chan only had /a/, for anime discussion, but there was too much offtopic discussion going on so they made /b/, named that because it was the next letter after A

>>714691017
They don't give that much updates on the KS compared to social media
they made tons of new levels and content, are releasing a mobile port soon and already announced it, and overall smoothly finishing it
They said a year ago that they are about 60% done

I miss the celebrity killing games

I used to fap to those dress up games where you can use vibrators on the models before going to church, good times.

>>714691634
>the game where you fly a missile through a cave to kill Osama Bin Laden

>>714691430
That and they said they were only going to be updating the demo to give players a taste of what the full game's going to look like. That's why since Week 7's release, they've shown the revamped menu, how the character change works, and some of the Erect mixes.

>>714680431 (OP)
I have a newgrounds page only to post art. Because every other social media platform is flooded with AI slop.

Its also cool to have an ancient ass archive where you can discover shit from back in 2002

>>714691017
The Kickstarter people live under a rock

Is the school shooter still the mascot of the site?

>>714691925
True, they also said the full game will start without the stretch goals(or some of them
) then slowly get all of it through updates, free updates of course
>>714692213
He saves the school from the shooter instead of shooting it, and no it's the Tankman
He took over a while ago but Pico(the shooter shooter) had a resurgence because of fnf and now they are both on the same level almost

>>714690453
I love big dicks in me

>>714687407
Agreed!
>>714691680
Loved all those games, usually would come home from school on Friday and play them all night.

I have an NG account.

>>714691680
Same. That one with the chick who would get embarrassed if you tried to take her clothes off until you gave her booze was peak. Especially since you could use the bottle afterwards to make her cum.

>>714680782
It was already in zombie mode by mid 2012. Youtube completely obliterated it especially after 2009 with the HD update. Flash didn't have the better quality anymore. A lot of people started picking up the pieces around 8 years ago and forced themselves to use it to revive it by just uploading art and animations even though they'd get a 1% the views compared to youtube or other art sharing websites. It worked a bit. I saw a lot of 19 year olds 2017 to now using it instead of us older guys.

>>714694991
I dunno, it glorified lowtax(alcoholic, abuser, spent all of his kids' college funds on booze specifically so that they can't have any money after he offed himself)

How did moot keep 4chan alive? The users, duh. Even though /v/ overtook /b/ and /a/ in traffic back in 2011 4chan was on a decline because all the idiotic kids were starting to be phone only and flocking to social media applications instead of going to forums.

I would get on NG every 6 years or so and look at my favorite flash animations that I used to watch 2000-2004 all the time. Lo and behold like 2018 I go to watch some of them and literal years of history were wiped away because of DMCA requests due to fucking music. One of them being a shitty DBZ clone called brutality. I downloaded it of course.

It aint but get this
He makes streams drawing for the game form time to time and constantly gets asked dev questions
He said the only thing that takes his time from work is using xitter and despite all of that they are about 60% done(last year) and already have a bunch of levels either done or in progress so if anything the Oney videos are taking nothing and are done for fun with his bois

I remember watching Dumbass Mario with my brother on Newgrounds and thinking it was the most hilarious thing ever. My dad asked us what was so funny so we showed it to him and he just looked at us with disappointment, didn't even smirk.

It's a damn shame that Tom shut down the general forum on there.
And with the changes to be in line with the UK laws, it's only a matter of time until the sterilization completes it's course on NG too.

>>714684802
Fulp threw a hissy fit and banned a game about a school shooting from the site years ago, despite the fact that his original claim to fame was fucking Pico's School. He's a lame middle aged dad now with none of his former humor.

>>714696168
Nuh huh, Arin said so himself.

>>714691060
It started to die literally in 2008. It wasn't until youtube introduced ad sense that it was fully killed. There was no incentive now to upload there. A lot of the main creators from 2000 to 2008 were already getting into their 30s by 2010 and starting real life.

It's my favorite site because as a poorfag kid with bad internet it was amazing. Got tons of amazing games, animations, and the art lead me to eventually presusing art too. Sadly don't use it much anymore outside a few visits but it has a place in my heart

Monetization. Everything these days is trash shat out for a quick buck instead of something done from passion and genuine joy. If you ever watched any of these former Newgrounds artists turned Let's Players, I fucking despise you and hope your life is miserable.

Develop an in-house, free, open source tool that's accessible to young autists that makes animations. Charge for licensing if they want to use it for offsite works. Nothing like this exists since Flash died, people would fucking love it.

>>714696421
Wait, what? It's gone? They really pulled an adult swim? Surely people have back ups of the forum?? I can't stand it when some of the places still host a site but decide to remove 20+ years of a text archive.

>mfw got a WEEL job like 7 years ago and went through like a madman on all of my online accounts from when I was a single digit age because I used my real name like a retard
Most of them I changed my handle because I said nigger and faggot a lot. A lot of the others were tied to my email that I still use 24 years later that also includes my real name. I had to straight up delete what I can still find. NG forums and comments on flashes were some of my worst.

>>714700151
It was on twatter. It was an offhand comment more or less asking zone "what happened to Reiko/why don't you do anything with her" and Zone's response was "oh she died in a motorcycle accident". That was it.

>>714700245
They've drawn lewds of her, just no official animations.

Funny how even on /v/ like 13 14 years ago people would still try to push the hoax that zone could be a gril. When in reality all the people that made their gender unambious pre troon internet were just dudes wishing to be a girl. When that time online came they all jumped on the bandwagon.

>>714700662
I think Zach is essentially the only one actually pursuing a career that he himself wanted to start with Chris back when they were barely 19. It's one reason why you hardly see him. Cory seems to be an autist that just never left philly and wandered into being hired by Tom for the game since he had nothing going on other than his porn addiction.

>>714700662
again, the game is moving smoothly and Dave keeps giving updates and Chris said he is till working on Bowlbo recentlytoo

I feel the hate for FNF is overblown. As a standard experience it's a simple rhythm game. Music might not be to your liking, but the animations help bring it to life. Charts were pretty shit, but got improved. Modding can and should be largely ignored. I look forward to the full game, probably going to have a huge amount of content.
Yes I have played other rhythm games. A good number of them.

this dude is STILL doing that "clock gang" bullshit?

>>714702717
It's actually fairly active yeah, it got tons of people visiting it at first to play fnf and generally check the site that they had to upgrade the servers
A lot of them stayed beyond fnf, like it's not even to play that game but to use NG and even create
>>714702931
Not him but nah, he doesnt do clock crew stuff and instead he is busy doing game or animation shit for a company but I don't remember the details but sometimes every clock day he would post something

>>714702109
It's not so much the game itself, it's that the fanbase is a hellhole of hypocritical underaged retards eating up whatever algorithmbait bullshit that's popular that month or trying to put over their shitty sonic/mario/robox avatar recolor as if there aren't dozens upon dozens upon dozens of the exact same fucking thing already.
But, every once in a while we get a mod like pic related that actually gives a fuck about its source material and makes it all worth it in the end. That and the copious amounts of quality smut of GF and all her variants.

But general getting shut down because of some drama is pure fucking bullshit.

To the credit of those old ads, they didn't pop up while watching a video.
I used to refresh the adult section and collect every variant of these.
Even used a GIF program to recolor them.

>>714709113
Is this even true? I'm a zoomer but I don't believe this. I don't believe it because I don't see old newgrounds comments with "racism" spam, I don't see old rpg forums with "racism" spam, and I don't see modern 4chan threads with "racism" spam. But I don't know, I'm a (((new)))fag

depends on which game he had since that animation is only in the second and third games.

Second game on the Saturn, as a kid, I distinctively remember that naked woman with a wrap around her body in a puzzle game he played once or twice.

Isn't 2chan's random board also named /b/?

Never forget that they told us that HTML 5 would make Flash websites obsolete. I've never seen a pixel font and animated buttons since. Fuck you, world.

they are fake and performative faggots who's entire personality consists of virtue signaling about how progressive they are because social media has replaced genuine human interactions with farming e-points to promote the fake persona of yourself you make online

people are far more honest and genuine when they can speak freely without worry of retribution, the ban happy controlled corporatized modern internet is the complete inversion of this

they don't actually care about being called a nigger faggot more than you or I do, but they know that by acting like they do, they elevate their social status within the artificial communities they inhabit

Dunno. in the age of flash, viruses were a pretty big deal. but today, do they even exist anymore?

How many of you tards were raised off internet culture from there before eventually ending up here?

There were so many sequels that we never got for great movies as kids that I would like

Like we never got a "Links Quest for Ass 3"

>>714718785
we never got Pico 2

>>714718360
>do thet even exist anymore?
Yeah but instead of bricking your computer for lulz or dox they install keyloggers that sell all your information to black market dealers, or quietly run a botnet that wakes up once a year to DDOS a government facility, or use 1% of your GPU to mine ETH

It's kind of a reflection of the internet as a whole, in that instead of being for fun it's for profit or insane political shit

>>714687407
I somewhat agree. NG seemed washed before 2010 though. it became infested with proto-redditors who wanted to control what got popular on the site. I probably stopped frequenting NG in 2006-2007. Pretty incredible place to find at the turn of the millennium when you were 12 and just got dial-up.

Gesnya Tsarevni - (vce v Ogon) / vse v Ogon'

wtf is this, the Russian version of Friends?

Tom Fulp is the ideal webmaster. You can tell because people still treat him like a literal god even though he's literally just a guy.

>>714721041
>vce v Ogon
why do the Russians need two words just to say "with Ogon"

>>714687407
The turning point for the internet and much of the general culture can be pinpointed to around 2007. Where it started to slowly decline and then started to rapidly become worse at around 2012.

That sounds horrifically like Something Awful's model.

Reminder the very based Warioware clone Mindwave and its lead creator Megalo has roots in Newgrounds. Can't wait for the game to come out, go play the demo if you haven't.

>>714709850
this is why I can't take artist slacktavists on Twitter or Bluesky seriously. Not nearly as based as the artists who want to create to enrich and entertain.

>>714729853
Life is weird man you could have played this game on one of those sites that takes content from ng and puts it there and then left it and only remembered it as that weird yet fun castle cat game throughout your whole life and never knew that its creator died or that his silly yet charming flash character got detailed beautiful art in his honor or that he was a chill cool guy who liked farming unless you dug deep and researched and most are not interested in looking for old info for internet creators for such an old site
really makes you think how vast yet small this world is, may he rest in peace.

It was looking to be that way when Tumblr banned NSFW, but there was allegedly a push against it? I guess everyone just doubled down on Twitter for some fucking reason when it's terrible for art, meanwhile Bluesky just decided to be just as bad if not worse.

Does Tom Fulp really have a nigger ass?

I've been waiting almost 20 years for a followup to this shitass Silent Hill 2 animation that I watched when I was like 10 and thought was the absolute peak of comedy

>>714732973
on twitter you don;t have to deal with a submission, verification, or tagging process, you just post and move on. it's wayyy easier for an artist but it's so much worse for a normal user

For retards who can't figure out which download button is the real one, maybe.
It hasn't changed. PC users just got marginally less retarded and phonefaggots are too retarded to even attempt downloading stuff so it doesn't happens as much. Also what back then would be called malware nowadays is just a feature.

I 'member.

>>714737894
Yeah for sure, I got exposed to all sorts of weird shit on newgrounds, then eventually found 4chan. I remember there was a game where you could fuck Brittany Spears in the ass and then give her a dirty sanchez.

It's insane because I spent an ungodly amount of time online as a kid and barely scratched the surface of the internet. I did the most basic shit 2000-2005 and knowing I can't even try to go back and experience more of it sucks ass. It's not like playing old vidya which you can do at any time. You just had to be there.

NG is only alive because enough people that are old users and some newer guys from 2016+ are paying to support NG's server cost. A lot of old internet sites (like BYOND) are almost purely ran off people that refuse to let it an old website die.

I didn't even start posting on 4chan until late 2008 but I vividly remember when I was 10 in december 2003 I was searching dragon ball games and after not finding anything good on NG a 4chan thread popped up and had a pretty compressed picture of SS3 goku from some nip fan artist. Then I remember in 2005 reading about 4chan in the NG forums and posters were saying it was a scary place so I literally avoided it till I got a bit older. The AS forums said otherwise though.
