Hi there! In case you didn't know, I created newgrounds. No, it wasn't made by some giant company - just some dumb kid who now has help. I also co-founded the Behemoth; we made Alien Hominid and Castle Crashers. Icon by Pegosho, banner by OmenaKettu.

When Cathode Raybots launches, it will be the first game to showcase NG Passport! There will be a notice on the loading screen asking people to sign in, as well as notices in-game at locations where people could save data to NG. We're hoping it will make more people around the web make use of the API features and hopefully get interested in NG!
I'm also making this post to test another feature that I'll announce with a front page post, if everything is working. Reply and say hi!
Out of curiosity, was this the thing that caused the site to drop the other day?
Storage system crash / de-synced data, some more details down below.
Can't wait to play this game!
Do you have intentions to make all our heads explode from all the recent good news?
YES!!! This is awesome.
Hi :D
Ey!
I'm curious about something, yesterday the site was 503 error'd for a couple of hours; what happened?
Other comments aside, I really wanted to congratulate you guys on the NG staff for doing such a great job on creating and releasing great thing after great thing for the past while. It's great to see all these great things coming from NG.
*e-handshake*
Hopefully Cathode Raybots launches soon then. Sounds like something I could use pretty soon as well
-scratch- dumb of me for not reading other posts...
sorry tom.
Great to hear this news!
Excitement!
awesome, also: in-game registration plz!
i doint know what this is but i like it
Hmm... This could be useful for the forgetful chaps who don't sign in to NG before they play I guess. Or if the game is hosted on another site but using the NG API and people can't look up into the corner and see if they are logged in. When will this feature be available for us to incorporate in our games?
I love the NG API!
This is awesome!
So does this feature only work for AS2 & AS3 for now?
Yeah for the moment it will just be AS2/AS3... Hopefully more as things progress.
NG Passport. Sounds interesting.
When will this be launched?
Jeez, Tom, how many amazing features do you plan on launching this year?
