NG SUMMERFEST 2023

So I'm super excited to be hosting NG SummerFest this year. I've done panels in the past for the summer festival but to MC for yall is certainly an honor. I care a lot about the community and community events and plan on making it a more involved part of my existence. Love ya NewGrounds <3

SUMMER INTO FALL PROJECTS

I'm working on a few things at the moment but I am thinking of hosting a Game Jam some time late august into September for a Halloween Spooky theme and then maybe stream the games on my channel on Halloween. I am happy to say though that I've been getting on a new wave of motivation so that's been nice. Looking forward to taking advantage of that with all these ideas

IM POSTING ART AGAIN :)

Pretty self explanatory but I'm posting art again :) mostly just stuff I have had in my files for a minute but pretty cool. While at the NewGrounds Meetup hosted by CorTat-G and other friends in our circle; I realized by focusing on all the community stuff exclusively, though super fulfilling, I was missing out on the parts of NewGrounds I love the most. Which is actually putting stuff on and interacting with the site LOL. so yeah that's been nice

MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL

My friends and I started our YouTube Channel LOBSTER BOIL which is like a mixed media, old YouTube style channel. I'm not super big on posting stuff online these days (as you could have guessed from the update above) but there's nothing more I love doing than collaborating with friends on projects. We decided on YouTube and after like 3 attempts we landed on Lobster Boil. I love the old style of YouTube, playing video games, making skits, interviewing bands at local shows, and more -- So I wanted to do my part in preserving that old style of Amateur Internet entertainment before that meant a POV shot on a leather couch. So if you're interested, go check it out!

You'll definitely be seeing art I do for the Channel up here on NG

MOVING FORWARD --->

I hope to keep this up and hang with more of yall soon! I Love everything yall have been making and I love all yall.

This week I'm shouting out Drew P Balls . This kid is a real one and a good friend. appreciate ya dawg

p.s.

Learn to take a moment, and take a breath. smoke a joint and chill with friends. this internet stuff isn't real and isn't that serious. Life is real and nicer than the screen could ever be

peace and love babes
