Recently ago Heavy Cat Studios (Scott with no apparent last name) contacted me on DeviantArt asking me to make sprite tile sets for his company as I reluctantly agreed to do so. After I stumbled upon this website for me to contribute there ares some games, animation, manga, art, and novels as I think "Looks interesting"

A few days later after my skype schedule was delayed He contacted me on skype recently ago that I should recommend to set an account at their website. Before I do so I checked the latest trailers from Heavy Cat Studios and the game footage that people made seems decent and dirivitive as I know think "Okay I geuss?"

As it turns out it is considered a scam by many people from Deviantart who complained they didn't got their money after they payed money to contribute ther art assets and in return they are left nothing as Scott leaves with cash thinking he can get away with it! He is not as creative as Scott Warshaw (who worked for Atari) and Scott Cawthon (creator of Five Nights at Freddy's) but lust for money without remorse nor does he have any experience in creative artcompared to ebaumsworld.

If you stumble upon this studio and if Scott asked you to make something for him I wouldn't reccommend you to work for him whom he made people lifeless. Do not even acknowledge him or contacting him that would put your financial situation. As for NG artists: Do yourself a favor and stay away from this website!

Sorry I was less inactive in Newground due to being busy with art.

I was about to make another art project that I'm currently making but one of the users on Newgrounds commented me that I was egotistical despite that this user respects me. I lost a bit of followers because I my life was occupied with art and loss of motivation.

I just don't want to have fame and not to rival any artists in this website but I just want to support other NG users and be involved in collaborations. I fear that I was very egotistical but is there any tips I just want to crush my ego as an artists? I'm very Sorry I don't want to treat you guys this way.

Also I'm planning to make a fan art tribute for Jazzas animation "The Tale Teller". I will upload this art either later this week or next week.

I just came back from Anime Expo. Bought several few stuff there.

As many of you guys know that my HP Envy 23 (The one that I bought back in 2015 after Pico Day) has encountered "smart disk error" that happens when I attempt to fix the app default reset by accident several months ago. Furthermore I have just wasted my cash on buying a monitor (W2081d) that my Envy 23 cannot detect when I'm using an hdmi adaptor for the VGA cable. Now I'm desperate to find a job. 

Unfortunately I will upload the last two artoworks before making a large scale art by next week which I will upload this art on November 19, 2016 after my computer is fixed. After that particular week has been passed I wil resume making flash grounds and a boss for Mugen for who knows my hard drive is corrupted during my progress. Even if I don't feel like making fan arts I will remain active on NG. Also I need to limit my computer time due to computer fatigue.

Sorry for the long post but that's what I address that I am concern of so far.

As I have updated this journal tomorrow I will be heading to Anime Expo on July 2nd as I cant wait to see some of the artists from the artists alley and a bunch of other stuff I will experience during my first time at Los Angeles Expo. I will be positng pictures of my highlights throughout this event such as taking pictures of cosplays, landmarks, retro gaming, ect. after I return home exhausted.

Other updates I would like to mention is I'm going to be making a wallpaper of Pixel ID users starting at July 11th as I am devoted to make Deviant users who have their own Pixel ID on their profile. I'm planning to make 5 characters in each day before next years 10th anniversary of Scrotumnose Pixel ID. And Also I would be starting to make a pixel art tribute to the Wii console that was released on  November 19, 2006 10 years ago!

If I'm devoted to make Pixel ID characters in style of Pocket Fighters for the 10th anniversary next year and began illustrating Wii Tribute in style of eboy but with a different style that means that I will make a fan art that is likely to be in between smaller scale and mid scale so unfortunately I would have little time to add additional art assets on Flash Grounds and making my mugen character but I will remain active on Newgrounds when I have time.

So that being said I will enjoy my trip with my bro before I will resume my hardships into creating something awesome next week. :D

I will be starting another project for making a Mugen stage that I would like to start on in low res manner in vein of mid 90's sunsoft games so this will take me about 2-3 weeks depending on the scale of this project I would be making. The only condition I felt that hinders me from making this project is the lack of motivation and pessimism but I will devote myself being perseverence as possible so I can continue to make art and resume making Flash Grounds again after the 2-3 week cycle of making this project so won't post any new art this time but I will remain active here on Newgrounds.

Also I will attend Anime Expo at Los Angeles in July 2nd this year so I will take pictures of Cosplay and landmarks as I will first stumble in this expo as I first stumble on Newgrounds office back in May 7th so I'm a bit nervous. I will post this on Deviantart, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram if I have time.

Summer is comming up. I can't wait to enjoy the sunny day as if I was relaxing in the heat without the need of an expensive Jacuzzi. I feel like making a difference.

Hope you have an awesome time throughout the rest of the summer.

I'm packing up to get things ready for Pico Day as I was hyped for. Even if I'm nervous to meet new people due to the fact that I barely familiarized some NG users I haven't seen before and I really need to remain calm so I can enjoy what Newgrounds office is like.

Sorry I have not replied to any NG users on the Pico Day Gift 2 - NES-style Emotes post as I was really busy modifying my Pico Day 2016 submission. I want to thank you guys (and Tom Fulp who made things possible) that you enjoyed my pixel art emotes I made. I've should've added many color palette on a pixel art before I was going on the Nes route with limited color palettes.

I hope you have a good time at Pico Day as I will be bringing my brother along. Also feel like bringing my laptop there despite that it will crash on me due to overheating so I will minimize my time.

I'm hoping to see some SSB4 tournatment in NG office! :3 But I didn't have a Wii U sadly... :P (Hopefully purchasing a Wii U in the future but I'm stuck with the Wii.)

Hey it's me again. I was busy making that Ratchet and Clank pixel art tribute but thankfully it's completed the day I submit it. Here are some news I would like to give out.

Several days ago my I assist my brother setting up a Newgrounds account even if he needs to be familiarized with this site's design since It offers games, movies, ect. You can check his account here: http://wingzly.newgrounds.com/ you can add him on your friends list yet nothing special since he is new to this site and the good news is he would be attending Pico Day so me and him can experience seeing real contributors who helped made what Newgrounds was made for. I will constantly take photos of some landmark I would see held at the NG office for my experience (If I ask permission under one condition but if I'm prohibitted to do so I would abide with the policy).

Bad news: My SMART hard drive is about to collapse on my HP Envy 23 (The exact computer I bought during the day of Pico Day 2016) and that means I would be unable to submit my fan arts and recently my Wallpaper tribute to Pico Day 2016 so I need to save this data to my laptop computer as I fear my hard drive on my laptop would cease properly... I keep this HP envy for one year so I can replace this Hard Drive with another one do to the stupid ass default app reset update...

Also I would continue on making Flash Grounds (formerly NG Shmup) after I finishing up making the Pico Day 2016 Wallpaper tribute because if I chose to release this in the middle or late 2016 I won't be able to compose music on a free decent music composing program and finding other programmers who have construct 2 (as long as they have their own personal licence because parallax scrolling is necessary) as I need to release this on next years Pixel Day and my goal to convert this as an arcade emulator made in Construct 2 for NG users to enjoy such as comparing high scores as an arcade room.

Sorry for the long list I just don't wan't to waste your time because those paragraphs are what I prioritize so far.

I'm developing an art block but that is the issue I needed to resolve. I would be busy commiting to make a wallpaper for Pico Day that would take at least 2 weeks as I will start on May 28th Monday so no fan arts this time so 4 wallpaper pieces in total. I would resume making Flashgrounds after I finished my wallpaper tribute to Pico Day wallpaper tribute.

Other big news: I would be attending Pico Day on May 7 to see some NG users who are animators, composers, ect. so this will be my first time attending NG headquarters since I'm a little nervous since I'm familiarize a few I see from Newgrounds such as Deathink, Carrion, Sabastic,ect. If not then I would move on to make fan arts at home.

I hope everyone will be at Pico Day 2016 at Newgrounds HQ and hopefully my experience will be a blast since Newgrounds was my childhood as I first stumble upon this website somewhere in 2003.

I am very busy making fan arts each week but somehow I need to make art assets for two games and the other making a fighting game character of my own.

Untitled NG Shmup (official title that I come up with: Flash Grounds): Most of the art assets is around 94% finished so all I have to do is to make the story cutscene, ending cutscene (which the game will loop to stage 1 in a harder setting), make a simple game over screen, the hidden message screen after the game over screen if the player does unkown requirments, credits screen, ect. I also like to ask any NG users if they would liket to collaborate by sumbit there own enemy ships since it's everything by everyone but I originally inteded the title to be "Grim by Everything by Everyone" since enemy ships made by NG user would want to kill the players ship. Also I needed to hire a programmer who uses Construct 2 with their own personal licence and to hire a composer for the game that I'm making with only arcade quality sound. My goal is to make a quality arcade emulator for Newgrounds that has a balanced difficulty with bullet hell elements for NG users to enjoy. This game will be released somewhere later this year or next years Pixel Day 2017.

2D platformer non isometric walk on wall hybrid game: I'm collaborating with Matheus Saviczki outside of Newgrounds to develop a game that inspired by Hydra Castl Labyrinth but in this game it shifts between a typically 2D platformer to walking on background walls as you see from JRPG games. This person I worked with is developing the game in Unity.

Making a fighting game character in style of Sunsoft fighting games: I was so eager to make one while just to express myself with old school gaming reference so I will use my previous boss sprite as an assist character which you see on my DeviantART account in my Mugen folder. He will have an intimidating structure in low res but not as intimidating as my previous boss sprites.

So that concludes my resolution for the day. As mentioned on my Untitled NG Shmup (aka Flash Grounds) you can submit your enemy ships if you like and I will include your sprites and your name in the credits in the game. I'm recovering from a computer fatigue but I will gain confidence when making art.

I just came back from the Philippines and I just wanted to share what I am doing:

I'm planning to make my recent untitled shmup game in Construct 2 but the only downside is that I developed a computer fatigue and I just want to limit my computer time so I can take a break by walking outside of my house and relieve all the stress behind while I relax and excercise. Also as I mentioned what I said is that due to limiting of what I can do on my computer I will make only one or two fanarts each week whether it would be a game, tribute, or some contest someone hosted.

Also this month I will post a message on the forum about collaborating ships for my untitled shmup game I was about to make in Construct 2 where I can ask any NG user if they want their ship to be featured on my untitled shmup game by submitting your own Dodonpachi style ships (any style from a shmup game of the 90's) in form of NG characters, Clock Crews, and elements from that website (Newgrounds) but if you copy and make a recoloer ship from Dodonpachi or any shmup sprites then I will get sued so make sure you need to make the ship from scratch without using black outline.

I hope everyone on NG user (and those outside of NG) is safe this year and Pixel Day is the internet holiday I will anticipate to see all awesome NG artists making awesome pixel art submission! Unfortunately I couldn't be able to release my untitled NG shmup on Pixel Day since I don't feel like making a rushed game (I barely need to start making my untitled shmup game on Construct 2).

Have an awesome year!
