Hey, it looks like the submission to the form worked, as trying to open it again results in "you already responded", but I'm not being sent to the "thanks for responding" page. Did you get my response? I'd like to know before I close the tab.


Someone please help me revive my clubs

Hello. I'm not much of a festive person in general but I recall I did enjoy playing through the Advent Calendar games from 2020 'til 2022, for the most part it was a rather cozy experience and as a bonus the snowy theme of it momentarily helped me forget the fact that I was physically melting to death nearing 30ºC in the southern hemisphere each day.


Seeing I am not (yet) late for applying this year I've considered trying to contribute to this event, just to get a little out of my comfort zone, if I am deemed worthy of the task of course.


I have a couple questions, though, being a musician I'd like to know how this aspect of the project will be handled: will the music be something that needs to get done before the game is put on the portal? or will it work akin to the daily art presents where new songs are added each day of the event? Also, would musicians be required for any other audio tasks throughout the event or are we just needed to provide one or two songs for the soundtrack and nothing else?


Gonna fill up the form if I manage to conjure some fitting demo track for this event in the next few days.

Copied from a previous relevant answer.


Additionally, if you don't already have a handy Discord account and you don't expect to ever use it beyond this project (I highly doubt it, since discord is an invaluable resource for many reasons), you can save making a Discord account until you know if you've been accepted.


I just made a Discord lol. I keep seeing it everywhere so I might as well try it out. I don't know what I'm doing with it though so bear with me. I already filled out the application and it has been submitted. Now I wait, see what's up. Thanks for the reply.

TANKMAS ADVENTURE 2024!

WE'RE BACK IN HOLIDAY BUSINESS!!

It's a pleasure to be able to bring back Tankmas with the help of two incredible colleagues in holiday hijinks: seasoned Tankmas veteran (and incredible artist!) @MrShmoods , and the legendary NG game developer @Squidly . The three of us are excited to organize things this year, and it's not just because of what we're offering - we're excited to see what YOU want to offer, too!

Tankmas? Is that some kind of joke?
Nope, this isn't some kind of cock joke - Tankmas is the non-denominational Newgrounds holiday tradition where people from across the site can log in every day throughout the month of December (plus January 1st, because why leave New Year's out of things?) and be treated to a new piece of art wrapped in a nice little gift box.

You can check out the Tankmas Adventure collection yourself!
https://www.newgrounds.com/collection/tankmas-adventure

(Pro Tip: logging in during December of any year still earns you the present medals! - for example, if you open 2018's December 1st present on this year's December 1st, you'll still receive the medal!)

So do you need only artists or...?
See, that's the cool thing about Tankmas - it involves every portal across Newgrounds!

Cool! So I can do literally anything for this?
WRONG!!!! You are able to do mostly anything, as long as it follows these general guidelines.

Wanna do more? Help each other out! Reach out to others involved with Tankmas for help on your project, or vice versa! - for example, you could grab a musician and voice actor to help make a comic read like a storybook, or you could gather a game developer and artist to help create a minigame, or even grab a musician, some voice actors, and an artist to create an animated short.

I want in on this! How do I apply?
Simple: fill out this Google Form!

It’ll give us an idea of what you want to do for Tankmas and allow us to see/hear/inhale what you can do, and we’ll enjoy it like the best gingerbread Smarties you can find- I mean, please make sure to fill out the form by Monday, November 11 @ 11:59 PM EDT to be considered! We do have limited slots, so while we can’t accept everyone to the project we value what everyone’s bringing to the table for this year.

If you want to propose a game or animation after the November 11th deadline; privately reach out to Shmoods, Squidly or I and we’ll talk further about the possibility of putting it in Tankmas. We’ve got an especially tight cap on the premieres, so no guarantees!

I have questions!
I hope we haven’t answered it yet! Pop any questions you got for us in this thread, then Shmoods, Squidly and myself will be happy to answer the best we can, but we can’t answer everything! Don’t wanna ruin any surprises (don’t even get me STARTED with what happened to the person that yapped about the killer candy canes from outer space).

Sincerely, the Santas

It works similar to the presents, where the deadline roughly depends on when you want your music to go live (24 hours before it's set to go live). This means that you don't have to have it done before the calendar goes live if you're going later on, but you can if you'd like. If you're going earlier on the calendar, then you should aim to have it ready before the calendar launches.

You're not required to do other tasks, and if you just want to do the one background song, you can do that. If you're open to other music things for minigames and such, you're also welcome to go for that in addition to the background song!

For the examples of your work on the application, you can do whatever best reflects you and what you can do. It's preferred to use recent stuff, but if you have older things that you think are better references, you can use those too.

You can always just export the files at a lower constant bitrate, I personally can't tell the difference between WAV and a 192kbps CBR MP3. 128kbps or even variable bitrate files don't sound too awful either and for the purpose of a demo that slightly lower sound fidelity couldn't matter so much, in case you're not willing to cut up the file to shorten its length, that's also something you could try.

I lost my first username, my first game badges, and a month of memories that I will never get back.


But now...

Heyo everyone, this is a heads up that you have APPROXIMATELY (read: 13 minutes less than) 12 HOURS LEFT to submit an application to be considered for Tankmas! If you've been on the fence about it before now, give it a shot!


Also, because I saw a few more of these, as a reminder: DON'T WORK ON ANY ARTWORK FOR THE CALENDAR UNTIL WE CONFIRM TO YOU THAT YOU'RE IN!!! Submitting an application puts you in the running for a spot, but that doesn't mean you automatically get in! We have limited spaces available!

I want to apply, but I don't think I have many good exaples to showcase, not much pictures with multiple characters and barely any complex backgrounds. I will make some unrelated festive pics to hopefully have a head start for the next year's event. Good luck to everyone who submitted tho!

Welp, nevermind that. Couldn't find the time so I just uploaded a few of the more videogame-y tracks in my collection.


Also, probably the wrong time to ask considering I already filled up the form, but does the discord username include the numbers at the end? I'm pretty sure discord erased that feature a while ago but I haven't used it in a while so I don't remember if it would be important or not.

Aw man, I would've loved to join this year to make an art for the calender, buuuut I suppose I was too late (and I didn't feel like using my Google account for this since it's tied to my personal email). Eh, at least I can voice act now, so if anyone has a comic or storybook that needs a dub, just hook me up after my experience with the Creepypasta collab stuff and then some. Otherwise, I'll be happily enjoying the game when it releases, I've always adored these ADVENTures and I'm so excited to see what this year holds!


Just a nerd and a Kirby.

Hope you have a good day! <3

This is an awesome art piece, but since every present is supposed to be a *complete surprise*, this can't be accepted in the advent.


This is still a great festive submission for the art portal!
