2024 Recap!

Howdy everyone! I thought I’d take some time to share all the fun and amazing things I did this year. I did a LOT! A lot more than I ever thought was possible for me to do! This year was definitely one where I proved myself WRONG!! :D

So, let’s go over it together!

My Year on Newgrounds

2024 was my first full year on Newgrounds. Although I made my account back in 2022, I didn’t really use it much except to upload some old artwork. It wasn’t until the end of 2023 that I told myself to give Newgrounds a real try.. and I did! I ended up doing so much more than I ever anticipated!

I did quite a bit of art in the first part of the year, here’s a few!

LVLUP Expo

In April, I was incredibly lucky to attend the LVLUP Expo in Vegas, where I got to see the first ever Oneyplays Panel! Meeting the Oney crew was an absolute dream come true. I never thought I’d get the chance, but the timing worked out perfectly for me to attend this con!

I remembered watching the 2016 MAGFest Animation Panel years ago and thinking how cool it would be if the Oneyplays channel ever did one of their own. I never thought they actually would, and the idea of me seeing it in person felt completely out of the question… BUT I WAS WRONG!

(Last Photo is from Oney's post.) If you look realllllly hard, you can see me in the crowd! :D

My First NG Collab

In June, the first NG collab I ever participated in was released!

The Living Tombstone Concert

Then in July, I got the chance to see The Living Tombstone perform live on their first tour, with Qbomb as their opener. This trip was super last minute and impulsive! I only found out they were performing just a few hours away a couple of weeks beforehand! But I decided to go, and it was AMAZING! The show was incredible and definitely made my 14 year old self jealous!!

Vinny & Jerma Fan Animation

Shortly after, I made a very silly fan animation of Vinny and Jerma during their play through on the House Flipper International Invitational. I’ve been a fan of these two for YEARS, so I was really happy to create an animation featuring them!

And then Vinny saw it himself!!! He reacted to it here!

More Art and Collabs

Then for the rest of the year I made as much art as I could (here’s a few more)

and joined more collabs here on Newgrounds!

Wrapping Up

I’ve met and made so many amazing friends over the course of this year, and it still feels unreal! Honestly, if you had told me two years ago what I’d be doing and accomplishing today, I wouldn’t have believed you.

I want to give a huge THANK YOU to everyone for all the support.

I wouldn’t be where I am today without every single person I’ve interacted with on this site.

Love you all! Here’s to an even better 2025! 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
