Halloween Spooktacular with Prizes!

[TomFulp]

It’s time for our annual Halloween Spooktacular! We’re looking forward to featuring your spooky animation, games, art and music this month.

To participate, make something scary / creepy / horror-themed (funny or serious) and release it any time between now and October 31st. Include the halloween2022 tag!

Note: While October 31st is the deadline, interest in Halloween drops off hard on November 1st, so your work will be enjoyed more if it's released sooner.

As always, any music in your game or animation must be used with permission or from a source that has granted an open license / no copyright status. Here are some music resources! If you’re a musician who has made spooky music, you can post it in this thread and let people know it’s ok to use in their games and animation.

@Bosa is hosting the music portion of the Spooktacular this year, please engage in his thread if you participate.

There are PRIZES and they increase with help from the community!

If you have the means and love Halloween, donate on our Supporter page and PM me a heads up you donated towards the Spooktacular. You can also specify which category. Our prize totals will grow and you’ll be added to the sponsor list below and to the winner announcement post. Be a part of history!

Spooktacular Promo Art / Site Skin

Our Halloween site skin is by @VonGrimsworth, who has made some great Halloween skins in previous years!

I found these by searching "newgrounds" on VonGrimsworth's art gallery, so that turned out to be a useful feature.

Our promo banner this year is based on last year’s winning art piece by @MicroBihon!

For one week only we've brought back PhantomArcade's Halloween Tank shirt! Order by October 12th to snag one.

If there's any animator in need of a voice (or more) for their project, feel free to DM me. Here's my reel: https://vimeo.com/331310006 (BTW, most of the animation clips featured in the reel came from animators I met through Newgrounds.)
