Thank you EVERYONE who participated this year; every submission makes the day more special. Congrats to the winners!

Later this week we'll announce winners for Game Jam 7. The annual awards and treasure hunt are still in the pipes. Voting for the best of July begins next week (August 1st, Wednesday) so be sure to check in and see if you're on the judging panel!

In other news... The awards bug on the Classic Portal has been fixed and the daily submitted / blams bug is being examined (when people quote those low numbers, they are actually quoting incorrect numbers). Also, there might be some thumbnails on the way!

DeathInk has made another update to Pico Radio so give it a listen:

First place!!!
Thank you very much NEWGROUNDS <3 <3 <3
And congratulations to all the winners and contestants, you guys really made some amazing stuff.
And speaking of amazing stuff (i.e. amazing music), thanks for mentioning my latest update of PIco Radio. It now has 92 fantastic tracks. I can't express how awesome and talented the members (and staff) of this site truly are.

XOXOXO;

Congrats to the winners.

[CowardlyLion]

Woo! Thanks a lot, and congratulations to all of the winners. There were lots of great submissions!

[Fate]

Oh, awesome.
I wasn't expecting first.
Thanks :)

There should be custom trophies for projects that win competitions such as these.
Or maybe I'm just being greedy..

Haha, well I found myself thinking the same thing. We just may both be greedy...how does the cash prize get through, too?

[N1nj4X]

Congrats to the winners! I love all songs ^_^

[Prid-Outing]

Congratz to the winners, but I guess Newgrounds really is dead as it doesn't even like new ideas. People just keep liking parodies and platformers, same old...

[TIMarbury]

Oh wow! First place! Thanks a bunch guys! congrats to all the winners!

[Zombie-Pimp]

2nd place, thanks! There were at least a handful of strong work this robot day, so it's nice to have placed.

[OreganoKicker]

Congrats to all the winners!

[HipnikDragomir]

Robot Day completely flew over my head. Ah, well. Next year. Unless we all get killed one way or another.

We actually had a system for that neat completion a few years ago, still hoping to get it together some day!
