Hey to whoever reads my account. Damn it's been a long time since I posted here.

New Things

I poasted some new comics on my art page. They're a revival of my old comic die. It's basically the same as the original, except with less effort in some aspects (coloring, the background, etc.) and more effort in others (switching between multiple languages... ok maybe that's the only part I put more effort into). I decided to make the characters speak different languages and switch between them randomly because recently I've started to like learning different languages and I thought it would be funny. If you can't read all of the languages, then you can read the English translations I wrote in the description for each of the comics. I'll probably put these comics on my Neocities site soupy cartoon later, but I'm lazy, so for now they're only on Newgrounds. Speaking of soupy cartoon, I stopped paying for the domain soupycartoon.com, so now you have to access it by soupycartoon.neocities.org.

Somehow the 3 comics I posted are the only art submissions on this entire site that use the tag "chinese-text". I guess it's cause Newgrounds is banned in China? It's still weird how no one else used that for 16 years of the art portal existing. Of course there are submissions that have Chinese text but don't use that tag. Also any art piece tagged with "japanese-text" might kind of count cause of kanji.

Why I Died

Now I'll write about my absence over the past 3 or so years here. I mainly stopped making and poasting art because I had to deal with real life (shocking I know). I also stopped visiting the BBS a lot after the General board shut down. I know that place was sort of a waste of time, but I still had some good laughs there. Uh... yeah I guess there's not a lot to say here. To sum it up, I haven't practiced much of my art-making skills (drawing, computer programming, composing music) in a long time due to life, but I probably haven't lost them completely, and I might be doing more with them in the future.

What's Next

So here's what I might do in the future on the internet:

• Post a comic or drawing once a month
• Translate my website into different languages I learned
• Program some (shitpost) games using free software
• Maybe make music?

Other Things

Now I'll write about some miscellaneous stuff that doesn't fit what's above.

cerealuser2222222

I had this alias cerealuser2222222 on the internet since 2021. The name was inspired by @Deity-Donkus's YouTube account Tractorbeam User LOL. I made this alias separate from Catalystl because I used it for some school project and I didn't want to reveal my Catalystl account, but that separation doesn't matter anymore, so I'm posting about it now. I made a Neocities website for this alias at https://cu.neocities.org. On that site you can find such sick art as midis and stories. I plan on publishing the rest of the spinge chronicals soon. There are also some secret sub-websites like https://cu.neocities.org/tt.

paperband

Another sub-website of cerealuser2222222 is paperband, a shitpoast music project by me and @Squily: https://cu.neocities.org/pb. Enjoy.

Milk Man 2 is out, the sequel to my GBTK 3 jam game Milk Man: Shit Edition. It's also pretty long so hopefully that makes up for the whole year or so I didn't post shit. Unfortunately I can't post it on NG because 3d games made with ancient versions of Game Maker don't compile for the web.

Also some people from NG helped me with this game. @brownfountain did some sick art and came up with the hedge maze thingy you can see below, and @Wegra let me use his "Video Games, Fucking Video Games" audio for the final boss music.

I updated my site with a news post that talks a little more about the game and what games I'm gonna make from here on out but if you don't wanna read it all here's the tl;dr:

• I'm gonna stop using Game Maker
• I'm gonna try to make my own games from the ground up with SDL and C++
• The next few games I make won't be complete shitposts

I'm not sure why someone got me supporter again because I'm barely active and not important but thanks! Also now that I'm writing a news post I guess I'll talk about what I've been up to.

Since late July, I've been working on a sequel to a game I made called Milk Man: Shit Edition. I'm pretty far into its development, but now that I have to focus on school, it's gonna take a while for me to finish it. After it's done, I might work on either guyman or a roguelike game idea I came up with a year ago. I can submit both of those to NG, but not the game I'm working on right now, since it can't compile to html5.

I put up a page on my site that goes over the unused content in all of my games, some of which I've submitted to NG (Josh Dumb, Crap OS, and JOSH DUMB 2)

If you're wondering why I haven't submitted my other games to NG, it's because they can't compile to html5. Also I've released the source code for all of my games on the page, except for Crap OS because I lost it :(

I made this when I was 12

and all I made was this

A while ago I made it for GBTK 6 on July 11th, and I spent today porting it over from GameMaker 8 to GameMaker Studio 2 so I could compile it in html5 to submit it here.

I hope I didn't dissapoint anyone expecting a serious sequel, also I'm not only making shitpost games from here on, this was just for the jam. I've been working on other projects for a while but I haven't had enough time to finish them because of school.

Also I've never mentioned this before on here, but I have a site called soupy cartoon and you can find some games I can't submit to NG on there because I can't get them to work with html5.

Lastly, thanks for 78 fans and thanks @summerskoo for giving me supporter earlier

I made this in April. Idk if i'm allowed to post it in the audio portal because it has voice clips.

warning: it's bad

I'm a few days late to this, but I just wanted to say thanks to whoever gifted me supporter.
