"It's calm under the waves in the blue of my oblivion" in this piece by @Bertn1991. Fellow musician @HoboKa remarked, "Damn, I love how 'A Colder Blue' evolves. Perfect name to a perfect track. The 1 minute mark reminds me a lot of a lot of Enix and Atlus games back in the day."

Another wonderful month of games to close out the year: congratulations to all of the game devs for finishing strong! As usual, I've got my own top 10 list over on my news page, so feel free to take a gander, though I think the general vote has picked some strong games already!


As much as I'd like to rest on my laurels, now I gotta get right into adding these games onto the best games of the year list and get to nominations! Look forward to it!

Congrats to the monthly winners! 🏆


RIP OBP! He was always sharing his work in the NewGrounds chat constantly and was a hard worker. I didn't know Wiesi at all, but I bet he was just as dedicated!


Also;


Please join the Kamen Rider Collab! We are off to a slightly rocky start-- but that is going be my animation project of this year and I hate to be only 1 of maybe a handful of people participating!


If you never seen Kamen rider, it was the prototype show to what the English speaking world knows today as "Power Rangers".


Besides, it's fun to look at cheesy stage effects before computers got involved.

That sure is a thing I said right there! Thanks for the quote, and congrats to everyone who got a shout-out!


Thinking back, off in the distance, the future shone everywhere we looked

Underneath the beautiful blue sky

We were just a little bit afraid

Congrats to the winners of December 2023! Wow I'm glad that Arsenal Online got to first place! A nice game to play if you're bored (but you should be patient to get all of the weapons and the achievements!).

Jan 8th - Today we are rolling out additional login updates. You will now see login attempts in your notifications, if a successful username and password combination was used (the final step is a code received via your email or authenticator app). If you see this notice on a secondary device before the attempt expires, you will have the option to approve the login. You can also block the attempt if it's not you.


Good call on both fronts, Fulp - in this day and age, account security should be a top priority.
