Just a Mayberry expat fanfic writer who likes these crazy li'l toons and games. Finally broke down and got the account. Ni hao! (that's Chinese for "hi, y'all!")

I liked that one... made me think...
And yes, I know it was meant to be a tragedy, and it may be my bias for happier endings, but... I think it would've been better if the main character had confessed he had an imaginary friend once to his sweetie... and she confessed hers.
And they both passed on their imaginaries to their kids, or placed them in cartoons, or something so it wouldn't be such a lonely ending.
Still, good work. Looking forward to the next work.

"Not that funny... but not bad at all. :-)"
Okay, it seemed like more an "observation of life" session than an actual full-throated knee-slappin' gut-bustin' make-ya-snort-yer-Dr-Pepper-through-yer-nose-all-over-the-s
creen laugh riot. (Though your list of recess options at the end WAS an honest LOL for me. ;-D)
But the main thing is, on your first flash-toon try, you actually TRIED. And practiced until you figured, OK, that doesn't look like a junkfest. Much better than the insipid "ZOMG" stick-figure bloodfests that get my Blam-of-the-Day on my vote quota.
My suggestion? Grab a writing how-to-book from Zucker, Abrams or Zucker, keep working on it, and I hope to see your next work soon. ^_^ d

Yeah, it's not really my best material, but I am definitely a writer already. Go to my website, read some of the scripts I've written, and then get back to me.

"Now who hasn't wanted to see this at least once?"
That was a quick little day-maker. Thanks for putting in a day of sunshine (or flicking off the faux darkness). You got some talent, keep cranking out the flashes. :-)

Ending felt kinda abrupt, and the look was kinda low-grade, but the story and the mood of the music made up for it and then some. Not too shabby.

I have had the sorrow of missing this worthy game, not being able to find or afford the Atari 7800. But it does my heart good that you have not only brought this title to Newgrounds but also brought the sound appearance, and game play to 21st Century standards.
The only flaw in it is the lack of an option for repeat players to cut through the tutorial and go straight to the game. But aside from that, Puzz-san, you have done yourself and Newgrounds great honor.
Now we would love to see if you can take the challenge of bringing us APB. ;-)

You do realize that the Ting-ding-dong-dai-dingding-dongdong-dong is gonna alienate one third of the world's population.
...
Yeah, WHATEVER.
(Sorry, couldn't resist.)
You coulda used a pause and play button so the less computer savvy could read all those hidden items more easily. Aside from that... that video rocked. B-D

Only thing missing is the two-player rendition... gets a little humdrum just playing the CPU. Other than that... bossa nova.
Just one thing... when played with dynamite in RPS... dynamite didn't blow apart scissors. Scissors cut dynamite's fuse.

... but Weird Al did NOT do that particular song. It sounds like him, but "The Beer Song" is not in his repetoire. Check his website's catalogue if you don't believe me.

Awesome! Great "documentarial" intro, and you nailed 8BT's style perfectly. I was very pleasantly surprised.

That was HORRIBLE!
Truth was, I'd heard that chestnut of a joke with a different punchline, but it was in the same vein. But I have to admit, the art was LOVELY, and you've got a great storyteller's voice.
Get a PBS Kids TV show. STAT.
