WELCOME TO THE PARAPPA THE RAPPER NEWGROUNDS COLLAB!
PaRappa The Rapper has been a classic PlayStation game for 28 years since it originally came out, and it's never been forgotten. Parodies, fanart, and more love towards the series has been going on for forever, and it's one of the best PSX games of all time.
But no one here on Newgrounds made a collab for the series yet.
Hey, EwanDoggie here. I've been focused on collaborations for a while though, and they're fun to see. The Hello Kitty Collab gave me some real great laughs, the reanimated collabs are spectacular, and I joined the Petpet collab.
So why the heck not organising a collab?
I've become a PaRappa fan since mid-2024. I played the second game, the first game, and put the guitar in my mind when I played Um Jammer Lammy. My personal favourite character is Katy Kat, because I kinda think she's cute.
PaRappa and Lammy are the games that stay with my soul, and I basically sketch the characters all the time. Mostly Katy.
I even made a little funny PaRappa parody for the 5th episode of my skit show, Stupidly Stupid. Episode 6 might get a PaRappa parody too. Who knows? Finished storyboarding the skit.
Anyway, let's focus on this collab I organised instead of talking my love for the series.
"Can I participate?"
Yes! You don't need to ask. Just DM me the animation when you're finished.
RULES!
To make this collaboration nice and non-controversial, here are the rules.
READ THE RULES BEFORE MAKING YOUR ANIMATION.
- Anything that is considered M or A rated isn't allowed. Please do not make NSFW for this collab.
- Please make your own submission.
- Please do not add slurs into this collab. The R-slur is okay if it isn't directed at disabled people.
- Please don't add your watermark. Don't worry, I'll add your username at the bottom left. If you're using FlipaClip, try to screen record the animation from FlipaClip instead of exporting it which causes the dreaded FlipaClip watermark.
- Do not use any type of copyrighted material. You can use songs from the PaRappa soundtrack, make your own, or use the audio portal.
- Please do not make your animation gory enough that it reaches the M rating.
- Yes, you can swear.
- Please do NOT make ANY joke about tragedies.
- No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, or anything else that offends a human group.
- Live-action isn't allowed.
- Claymation is allowed.
