Hey everyone! My stress break from social media is finally over!

Sadly, I didn't manage to get everything I wanted to do while I was gone done. In particular, I didn't find time to check out any new artists on Newgrounds, or DM the staff about potentially fixing the unscoutability issue that's plagued my experience of this site for the past year...

But, I did manage the most important thing: I found some time to relax!

I also completed a couple of new artworks, one of which I intend on sharing here tomorrow. It's the big 100+ followers celebration piece, so you won't wanna miss!

And while I still have a couple more art trades to finish off, once those are done I still plan on opening either a raffle or a forum topic for free doodles for followers!

Once again, I have been feeling very stressed and depressed recently, so I will need to take another short break from social media until July to recover a bit.

Don't worry though, because while I'm away I'll still be working hard on plenty of cool stuff for you all to see when I return, including a special artwork to celebrate the milestone of over 100+ followers! I'm also planning on starting a new thread over on the forum to offer free doodle requests to followers, so hopefully that'll be a good opportunity for me to grow even more, and make some new friends while doing so!

Additionally, I've hidden three exclusive artworks as unlockables within my very first video game project (which I released here last month), that being Fnuzzlee's Cheese and Ham, so if you haven't played that already you might like to give it a go? It's not a long game, and there are many difficulty options to ensure it won't be too stressful for you to unlock those spicy secrets pics! Here's the link:

I won't be posting any new blogs or artworks until I return in July, and I'll be a little less responsive to comments and DMs than usual, but I'll still be around here to a small extent: I want to try and find some time to check out my fans' galleries to see what they've been up to recently, and maybe follow some new people as well.

Finally, while I won't be that active here or on most of my other online accounts, I'll still be posting to my account over on Twitter. This is because I fear that I may lose my account if I am inactive for too long a time (this happened to me once before, for seemingly no reason, and I was lucky to get it back). So, if you want to continue seeing posts from me in June semi-regularly, and want to support me as a creator, I'd certainly appreciate a follow if you have an account over there! Just be warned that all my posts there will be old art reuploads for the time being, until I bring that platform up to date with my DA and NG, but there may still be a few that I didn't post here that you might enjoy seeing for the first time.

(Yeah, I'm not very big there yet, lol)

Hey everyone! I DID IT! After two months of hard work, I finally finished my first HTML5 web game and posted it here to Newgrounds! Check it out for yourself here: https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/932237

It's called "Fnuzzlee's Cheese & Ham" and stars your favourite fluffy witch, the titular Fnuzzlee! It plays similarly to Noughts & Crosses (aka Tic-Tac-Toe), though it should be a lot more fun because I added some new features to make the gameplay much more engaging.

The game features multiple difficulty options, a Dynamic Difficulty option (Fnuzzlee plays smarter as you keep winning), Cheat mode (Fnuzzlee occasionally places two tiles instead of one), and Multiplayer. Additionally, Fnuzzlee's expression changes throughout the game depending on whether she is winning or losing, and she'll leave up to 85 random humorous (and often rude) comments depending on the situation.

Best of all, there are THREE exclusive, never-before-seen artworks of Fnuzzlee hidden in the game, which you can unlock via password by winning against her! Read the game's description if you want some advice in unlocking those secret pics. I know you'll find these pictures really funny, and one of them is rather thicc and cheeky too (but not sexually explicit or anything, don't worry), so you won't want to miss it!

Please give it a try, it means a lot to me, and I'm sure it will be a lot more fun for you than you think. Also, after you play, I'd like you to give it a fair review (not an overly negative one to try and purge it from the website so nobody can experience it), and some constructive feedback. After all, I am still just a beginner developer...

***

Btw, while I'm here, I'd like to thank everybody for helping me reach 105 followers! I thought for sure, the minute I hit the 100 mark, it was going to drop way back to 95 or something, and then there'd be no point in me making something to celebrate something I'd already lost... but that's not the case, so I will start working on something special for you guys shortly...

However, I will be taking another (much needed) stress break from social media next month, so I'll probably just be posting one more artwork before I leave for a little while. More on that later, but there are always still the three unlockable artworks of Fnuzzlee in my game for you to enjoy while you are waiting!

At long last, I have finally reached the milestone of 100 followers on Newgrounds! Thanks guys!

This has been my target for the past 4 years or so, ever since I joined way back in New Year of 2021. It's been a long, difficult struggle, and I encountered many road blocks on the way (notably, being descouted from the art portal without possibility of being rescouted, for reasons unknown...), but I finally managed it despite all the cards being stacked against me from ever doing so.

I wouldn't have managed this without the help of all my generous watchers. As a way of showing my thanks, I'll probably do something special like offer some free doodle requests, or maybe a raffle if that's a thing on this site (I haven't seen many, but then again, I might just not be looking in the right places). Of course, I'll probably wait until I have around 105 followers or more before I truly start thinking about this reward, since there's still a high possibility somebomdy might unwatch/deactivate, leaving me with just 99 followers again, so I'll wait until I am DEFINITELY in the 100+ followers range!

So, yeah... currently I'm working on some trades I owe people over on DeviantArt, but I'll definitely be posting something here again before the end of the month (probably something Mermay related), so keep a look out for that! And if you haven't seen her already, Miss Chewbecca here should keep your thirst quenched for the time being, so please enjoy!

I'm back from my little stress break. Yeah, there's nothing I can do about my age, and I think I have come to terms with the fact that maybe I haven't achieved everything I wanted to before that milestone, but it's okay, so long as I don't give up and continue working hard. I'll get there in the end!

So yeah, I've already put out a new artwork for you all to enjoy. This was something I worked pretty hard on, so I don't want you to miss out on it! Be sure to click on the link below so that you see the full picture, and once you've had a look at it, why not give me some feedback or some support if you enjoyed it?

Oh yeah, and I see I'm still at 95 followers. That's nice that it didn't go down like it usually does, but it would be really cool if I could reach 100 before the end of the quarter. If you have any friends who might enjoy my art, why not tell them about me? Perhaps I could make some new friends that way, that would be awesome! I certainly can't grow organically like on other sites, due to still being shadowbanned (aka descouted), and the fact that nobody can see my works on the Art Portal or even if they click on the tags.

Which really sucks... so I would appreciate your help : (

First of all, I'd like to thank all my recent followers for your generosity in watching my content. I'm nearly at 100 followers now, which is crazy to me, since that has been a goal of mine since I joined way back in 2021. When I was unfairly shadow-banned/descouted from the Art Portal last year (still haven't received a single notification about it from the staff to this day), I honestly thought that I no longer had any possible chance of growing on this platform, but you guys all made it possible despite Newgrounds seemingly working against me, so thank you all so much!

I think if/when I do reach 100 followers, I'd like to make a little something special to celebrate the occasion, so look out for that some time soon, hopefully! That and the game I'm planning on releasing shortly...

Before all that though, I'd like to take a week or two in March away from social media if I can, so that'll mean no new uploads until later this month. I know I already took a break like this in January, just a couple of months ago, but I am currently feeling rather stressed and depressed again (I'm turning 30 in a few days, and there's a lot I haven't yet achieved in life; I'm well into my quarter-life crisis right now), so I feel like some time to myself would do me some good.

See you again later this month folks, and if you haven't seen it already, enjoy my latest artworks!

WHOA!!!

Thank you so much for all the new follows guys. There I was, just a few short days ago, posting a journal about how I was depressed at being stuck at 84 followers forever. Now I'm at 91... That's 7 new people in just the past few days! I never usually receive so many follows: I think this might be the most I've ever received in one week since I joined the website, over 3 years ago now...

Every year since I joined, I've been aiming to finally reach 100 followers, and now it looks my lofty goal is finally in my grasp. I only need another 9 followers now! I ain't there till I'm there though, so I'll continue to provide you with quality art content until that point, and beyond!

To be honest, I don't even know the reason for receiving so many new followers in such a short period of time. My latest artwork didn't do very well, and none of my works have been featured on the front page to my knowledge. I'm still descouted/unscoutable/banned from posting to the art portal as far as I can tell. Perhaps somebody featured me somewhere in a website outside of Newgrounds...?

Whatever the case, I am most grateful for your generosity, all of you. You are helping to take me one step further to achieving my dreams!

Thank you! ; D

Hi everybody, I'm back from my stress break! : D

Two new followers, two followers gone, stuck at 84 forever... funny how that keeps happening, eh Newgrounds staff?

Sorry if you missed me (my watchers anyway... I know nobody else would miss me because they have no idea I exist yet), I have a few artworks planned for this month, which I hope you'll enjoy! Here's the first one:

Also, I opened up a new TWITTER account recently, so if you have Twitter/X account, feel free me to follow me there and I will be most grateful!

https://twitter.com/LiquidFStudios

I had a lot of trouble setting up his account during my break. First I was suspended for no reason, then I got my account back but I was shadow banned... I'm taking a break from interacting with my account there for a couple of weeks to see if that helps resolve the shadow ban, since I read somewhere that this works. Fingers crossed!

Because of all that stress, I may need another short break during the first week of March, heh heh!

Sorry guys, forgot to tell you all that I'm having a stress-break from social media until February 1st, so I won't be posting any new drawings until then. I'm still working on artworks though, you'll see them soon enough!

i'm also working on setting up a new account on a certain other social media website... I'll tell you more about that when I return, but that's fairly low stress atm due to nobody knowing I exist there yet, lol

Hi everyone! Hope you all had a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and I wish you all the best for the New Year!

Speaking of wishes... my Newgrounds Christmas wish this year is to FINALLY have a single one of the artworks I pour so many hours of my free time into be FEATURED on the front page of this website!

Hey, I'm not ASKING you to suggest one of my artworks! But... it would be awesome if it happened at some point, if not before the year ends, then some time next year. It would really make my day, and remotivate me after a long period of feeling down after having lost my scoutship with the artportal.

Or heck, have my scoutability restored, I'd be happy with that too! I'll admit, I don't even click on the artworks featured at the bottom of the page anymore... it just makes me feel bitter and depressed about how these people (often already big artists) get free promotion here, whilst people like me who work just as hard have the whole system rigged against us having any of our works reaching the people on this site who may be interested...

And I don't like feeling so angry, these people didn't do anything wrong. I don't want to feel depressed when browsing Newgrounds, I want to feel inspired. I feel like that part of the Newgrounds experience was stolen from me the day I discovered I'd been shadow-banned from the art portal...

Anyway, I'm rambling again... Newgrounds has certainly had an effect on my mental healtth. Many of you probably don't even know what I'm talking about. If you don't know what featured artworks are, or where the front page is, be sure to check out the tutorial I wrote in my last blog post.

Hopefully 2024 will go better, and hopefully I'll FINALLY make it to 100 followers!
