I just dropped (sort of) Furry Random Stuffs 4, a movie that was supposed to come out in 2008 (woah, 16 years ago). If you're not familiar with the series, it's a collection of movies with short, scrapped clips, mostly related to video games. Many of the scenes were made with sprites, and some of the clips were in pretty bad taste. Furry in the title was just a bait.

This collab was almost done, but then a bunch of problems came up, time passed, collab members disappeared, new submission rules showed up, and blah blah blah... Anyway, I’m in a good mood. Enjoy this throwback to 2008! Added an Among us parody I made in 2020 too.

The submission is not published, but if you're a registered Newgrounds user, you'll be able to watch it as I made a preview access! You might come across some things with poor quality and questionable clips.

Ps. This week I reach level 49! 🎈🎈

Sensitive Content Warning: This post touches on themes related to mental health.

I’ve been reconnecting with Newgrounds over the last few months, editing my favorites list, the users I follow, and checking the comments I left, and... Oh lord. Honestly, it made me realize I was a scumbag when I was 16. I feel really bad about the person I was back then.

I had a lot of mental issues at the time. I was especially narcissistic, pretentious, and avoidant on the internet, seeking refuge in inappropriate things I wanted to copy to gain attention. I used to reply to others in a rude and arrogant way.

I want to make a public apology to anyone I may have offended back then. I was immature, an attention whore who hated the people who tried to be kind, and that's really toxic. I also was jealous, and that pushed my limits. I know that at one point, I completely exploded emotionally and disappeared for many years, cutting ties with many of the contacts and friends I had made on Newgrounds. I deeply regret how I behaved and today, I'm so happy some of the friends I had succeded!

Don’t be like I used to be. Ask for help, or you might attempt to commit suicide at some point. Take care of the people who likes you.

To my fans from back then: I’m sorry for not following through on my promises. I set unrealistic goals, and being an emotional mess, I would drop projects. That’s actually how Furry Random Stuffs came to be, a series showing all of my incomplete works.

For those curious about which projects were scrapped, here’s a list:

• All Your Game Are Belong To Us
• Furry Random Stuffs 4
• Legend of Pokémon 2
• Legend of Pokémon DX
• Left 4 Dead Music Video
• Madness Day 2007 movie
• A long Clock Day 2008 movie
• Parodius Flash
• Picross Flash
• Power of Three: Moon Gold
• Taiko Flash Simulator
• Tails and his GBA 4
• Fuzzy Madness Spoofs

Today, I’m doing much better, although I still have some mental disorders (like being a people pleaser) and several health issues from avoiding human interaction for almost a decade. I’ve been focusing on my personal growth, and even if I don’t have as much time as before, I still want to create things, games in particular. I’ve started reconnecting with Newgrounds because I never wanted to stop creating. I’ve been going through my journals, correcting spelling mistakes, and removing things I now find cringey.

I won’t be editing or removing any of my original submission files, even if some of them make me uncomfortable, but I might censor the last scene of Furry Random Stuffs 3 when I upload the video version for obvious reasons.

Once again, I sincerely apologize to anyone I might have hurt or disappointed. I’ve changed a lot since then, and I’m still working on being a better person every day. This post might come across as unnecessary or like I'm seeking sympathy, but I felt it was important to share it publicly as part of my healing process, and if ever needed, as a statement to justify my actions from the past.

Thanks for reading.

Stamper N' Johnny (2009) is a unique and heartfelt animated film created by SardonicSamurai starring Will Stamper and Jeff Bandelin. The story follows the deep emotional connection between Stamper and Johnny, two characters who share a profound bond. As they navigate their friendship, Stamper comes to the realization that Jhonny possesses not only an incredible personality but also a beautifully sculpted physique. The film explores themes of self-discovery, admiration, and the complexity of human relationships, leading to a heartwarming and unexpected happy ending.

Edit: We did it!

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to share that I've been converting some of my old Flash movies to MP4. Along with that, I've added updated thumbnails and descriptions to give them a fresh touch.

There's still much more to convert for next year, but it feels great to make them more accessible.

Have a good one!

I’m excited to announce a new release of Flash Forwarder Tools! This new version introduces two major features: a redesigned desktop Flash Player 32 projector with an improved user interface and a Chrome extension that forwards Flash content to the desktop app for seamless playback.

Why Flash Forwarder Tools?

Despite the growing compatibility of Ruffle, many Flash submissions remain unplayable. Additionally, many users still report persistent issues with getting the Newgrounds Player to work. FFT bridges these gaps by providing a reliable and flexible solution for Flash fans.

Features

⠀ 🔹 Desktop Player:

• Full-Screen Playback: Enjoy Flash games and animations in full-screen mode.
• Search & Random Browsing: Find Newgrounds content by submission ID or explore random submissions (from ID 1 to 593648, no adult content).
• Submission Details: View submission title, author, and description directly in the app.
• SWF Management: Backup SWF files from Newgrounds for offline use.
• Play History: Keep track of up to 5 recently played submissions.

⠀ 🔹 Browser Extension (Chrome/Edge/Brave)

• Automatic Detection: Identifies Flash content on any webpage.
• One-Click Playback: Launch Flash content instantly in the desktop app.
• Newgrounds.io Integration: Unlock medals and API features when playing Newgrounds submissions. When launching the game, make sure you are logged in.

Currently only available for Windows. I had previous attempts doing MacOS and Linux builds and I failed delivering them. I’m open collaborating with MacOS/Linux users wiith development skills to help expand compatibility.

Changelog

• Nov 28th, 2024: Hacked the player to avoid white screen errors. The window name has been renamed from Flash Player 32 to FFT.

Desktop Application

Download Flash Forwarder Tools 2.0 (Windows)

Chrome Extension

Hey.

Probably the best thing I solo-developed from scratch in one week. Give it a try!

Will upload it to Newgrounds once the game emulates perfectly. I love Ruffle.

Hello,

@Markanime recently released his second game on the Nintendo Wii U, also available on Nintendo Switch this time. All 2D graphics were drawn in Flash, just like any of his animations.

It also features some music tracks by me, like this one. This is the second time I made music for a commercial game that is also released on consoles. I was invited to produce some tracks in 2017, that was 5 years ago!

You can read Mark's announcement here, give him some love.

¡Feliz jueves!

Hello Newgrounds Community.

I joined a 168 hours gamejam last week, the most important yearly Spain gamejam (I really needed to disconnect) and I solo-made Chair Bound! I wasn't able to finish it but I will eventually complete it and submit it to the Portal. Current version is stable though.

Edit: I won 3rd place on sound category.

By the way, works flawless on Ruffle. You can watch the trailer below.

I'm also working on making touch controls (with JavaScript) for phone users for the Ruffle version and will try to implement gamepad support as well. Remember, Flash does not allow multi-touch this solution was needed. Everything will be included in RetroFlash Toolkit.

Edit: I'm so busy with personal life atm, everything is stand by.

Howdy,

I've been working on something really cool I call RetroFlash Toolkit. Before you ask me about Flash Forwarder Tools v2, I will come back to that once I finish this one because I didn't feel motivated with some issues I had with it and I really would appreciate help.

So? What the heck is RetroFlash? If you followed my gamedev progress, you might know I've two* recent games made in Flash, one of them is uploaded here, on Newgrounds. I'm talking about Suenio.

*ᵀʰᵉ ᵒᵗʰᵉʳ ᵒⁿᵉ ᶦˢ ᵂᵃᶦᵗ ᶠᵒʳ ᵀʰᵉ ᵂᵃᶦᵗᵉʳˢ

Suenio it's kinda of a special game, why? The game actually plays at 60 frames per second on a rendered Movieclip where the game actually is making it pixel perfect. There's later an overlay above it for scanlines and NG Medals. This kind of stuff wasn't possible back then because it would lag so much, not a problem nowadays (unless you run it in a potato, you will turn it into fries). This was more than a year ago. RetroFlash has been in development since then and it made huge progresses. Also, code is much clean now.

First of, I want to say that it's made in AS2 but that doesn't mean it's compatible with Ruffle (not yet). I also doesn't mean you can't play the games on your browser since I'm giving a lot of options where you can disable the render.

So what can RetroFlash exactly do? (God, I'm so bad at explaining this kind of stuff)

• Pixel Perfect Rendering: Make your games feel retro
• Semi-automatic depth system with layers: Ready to make beat 'em up / RPG games.
• Configuration Menu: Like entering on an arcade settings menu
• Game Options: Change the value of something you declared from the game easily.
• Remapping controls: Easy to customize and testing your control bindings
• Reduce Frame Rate: Rendering lagging? Render at half speed.
• Scanlines Customization: brightness, texture, opacity, you know...
• CRT Emulation: Rendering blur (for games that not meant to be viewed as raw pixels)
• Sound Manager: Play music with intro and loops, fade it, sound effects, and more...
• Save Manager: Save easy your game progress.
• Open Source: Under MIT Licence.
• Probably forgot something: Dude, this is more complex than it looks like.

Video version

Some devmenu options. If the developer enables it, accessible by pressing F2.

RetroFlash Component and some default parameters. Lifes variable linked to the devmenu.

That's all for now. I post some progress on Twitter.

FLASH FORWARDER TOOLS 2.0 RELEASED

EDIT: I'VE BEEN WAY TOO BUSY WITH LIFE, SORRY!

Version 1 is available to download here.

⚠️ I've been working on Flash Forwarder Tools v2, however, it's still in development.

No link for now but I might need beta testers. Please, contact me if interested.

Seriously, contact me.

IMPORTANT UPDATE: I MADE THE NEWGROUNDS API WORK.

This means you will be able to unlock medals and other stuff.

Kudos to @little-rena, I used her submission to test it.

Newgrounds Flash Player not working?



Welp, we can just replace the executable file with Flash Forwarder Tools v2!

• The main app is based on the latest Flash Player version available
• Does not require additional installations or tweaks.
• It can automatically assign the .swf file type to directly open any Flash file.
• Loading content from Newgrounds through the NG Player Launcher link is not a problem anymore.
• It is capable to load content from other websites by providing the link (if an SWF file is found)
• Download your favourite Flash, open them offline or even make standalone projectors!

... and more

Not all the features will be available on Linux & Mac.

It's looking much better now.

Also, I broke my Newgrounds Flash Player.

Uninstalled it and I can't make it work again. I've the same problem people comments me.

I'm sad.
