I had to read through my last news post to figure out what I can post about.
busy summer so far! This past weekend we had some ng folks from TooManyGames con in town. I am a bit bummed I wasn’t able to go to the office visit on Sunday but it is what it is. Photo dump below of that and the pico Day in NJ which was awesome.
I managed to finish a game with BoMToons we had been working through for ages. The ax throwing one I mentioned on and off at different podcasts etc. While you’ll need to fly over to Lisbon to play it, I’m quite excited to see people interact with my art in that way. Kudos to him for including me in such an unusual application.
One reason I was on a mad dash to finish it. We are heading back to work 5 days a week soon (later this month, although we are suing the city so who knows). Previously I’ve been going back to office two times a week. But I wanted to clear through any projects that would seriously hurt from not being able to be worked on during home office so.
i have some small projects coming out throughout the summer so stay tuned.
Pico Day NJ : some of my favorite people ninjamuffin, magibauble - he had a recent animation come out if ur into Zelda.
caught up with ZJ and Krinkels. Didn’t know anyone even owned an Anusboy t shirt anymore. Huh.
there’s been so much new fan ng merch lately it’s been a lot of fun to see after the long shutting of the ng store when I worked there. Fun pins by Mindchamber.
kind of a regular thing now at meets where people provide swag. Some custom for the event like the pico Day sticker in there. Also nightmare cops bust was impressive (not swag)
mindchamber had a working mindchamber mask which was really cool.
I didn’t take much fotos at TMG but got some swag. The stickers are from Tyler
there was Crazy Taxi outside of the convention center. I didn’t know he was giving people free rides. I was heading out anyways but still cool.
newgrounds spot was lively. We got shooed out pretty fast after our block was over so I got separated from the group and I got a offered a free ride closer to home so I took it and missed out on night shenanigans. Probably the most annoying thing of this convention is how far away it is.
on Saturday we skipped TMG to hang out with my old coworkers + Connor Grail. This was at the Barcade in center city.
Couple more people joined us later for an ol fashioned bar crawl (squidly & mech mantis)
that’s about it!

Already, I’m feeling nostalgic for that theater! It felt like a year ago!
