I'll be getting the 2008 History page up soon, too. I really gotta update the whole NG history section.

The only two submissions I can recall from the top of my head would be these:
http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/44 7514
and
http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/43 6398
I was part of both, that's probably why I can remember them. Sadly A Night In Hotlanta wasn't as influential as I thought it would be, but MGF definitely did its job right.

WHATEVER PSI
I DONT CARE ENOUGH TO READ YOUR POST
BUT I AGREE

wait i just read it
you expected a night in hotlanta to be influential?
mgf was more controversial than influential
but i guess that influenced people

but i have to agree you are so wise and old and wise

well, I'm not sure how influential you would consider this, and it's also on my favorites list, but hard boiled egg was pretty original for a flash portal submission. albeit a video submission.

This is my top 10 list of influential flashes of 2008.

1. - Move Your Feet - by rtil


The best non-sprite pixelated flash I have ever seen. It has inspired my video The Pixelmas Shorts as well as many others. It is a must see.

2. Fallen Angel by RobsH66


Fallen Angel, well, epic.
I haven't seen anything else that had this much time and effort put into it.

3. Boogley Bus Stop by TheBoobley


This show how a unique style can make an unknown artist, known. TheBoogley's style continues to captivate me and I am sure others feel the same.

4. One Big Morphing Orgasm by TheBoogley


I didn't want to do two submissions by the same author, but I just HAD to add this to my list. It shows NG that amazing collabs ARE possible, even on the most simplistic concepts.

5. SMALL by Morrowdays


I'm just a sucker for unknown artists. I just love this video and its use of textures and all homegrown music and art. More NG submissions should be like this where ALL the things in it where made by you, the creator.

6. Brian's Got A Problem by Sagerman


This one is just great. Who can't like this? It's funny all the way through, unlike the majority of NG's attempts at humor.

7. Edible Castle 10 by EdibleCastle


This video show how much you can realy hype up a video. Newsposts and Contests for a single video? Whether you enjoyed this video or not, keep in mind that it left a mark on NG.

8. Baman Piderman by AlexButera


I show this video to anyone I introduce NG to. Everyone I know that watches it starts to see NG in a better light.

9. Art In The Playground by TommyLM


Watch. It's inspired me and I feel I am not the only one.

10. The World's Hardest Game by Snubby


We all hate em for this, but frankly, this is one of the most addicting games I have ever played. I hate to love it; love to hate it. It's fun but aggrivating. It's simplistic, yet complex. It's what more gmaes should be like.

We still want to get the video ports back on track for the podcast, but it's always a pain getting Flash movies to work well in video format. Luis has podcasting plans for 2009.

Oh yeah, cool :) but the only way people ever get anything done is with one go. Like with the 08 history page. You just have to force yourself to sit down for 2 hours and clear that up.

Yes, it's true, I fuck me.

I like them so much that I'm setting one as my desktop. Sorry Stamper, but I will no longer be looking at your Tokyo background every time I turn my machine on!

So here's a random task for anyone who wants to participate: Make a list of what you consider to be the most influential Flash submissions from 2008.


This is probably what most people will choose, but I have because it raises the bar for the many animators of this site. It does what Waterlollies did in 2007, let my jaw drop.

I think that Bright in the Screen was one of the most influential submissions on me that I've seen this year.


I loved it because, although the programming had a fair few bugs in it, the graphics and some of the concepts which appeared in the game were, in my opinion, quite powerful and unseen in a game before (well, by me at least). The-Mario-Man even had an epiphany (top review as of posting).
The bugs became some kind of love-hate thing, because they made the game more frustrating, but at the same time, offered more challenges. When you're afraid that a bug will suddenly warp an 'enemy' right next to you, it somehow makes the game more exciting (I don't think it ever happened, though). There was even a level where the objective was to exploit a wall-climb bug; one of several interesting ideas in the game.
Plus, the author replied to complaints in a clever and funny manner.

Well, it certainly influenced me; my friends have almost had enough of my quotations from the game and the pictures I draw based on it =)
Also, it was the first thing I put on my favourites list after deciding to remove everything on it due to lack of any update.

On another note, Osuka is really showing off his 3D talents with those nice new wallpapers! Very well made!

Doomsday-One, working on stuff better than preloaders.

By the way, I made the 'Create an Animated Sprite' preloader for Sprite TV 3!
