Evil-Dog also composed the theme song for Newgrounds Rumble, using elements from the classic Endless Handbag loop that once adorned the NG front page.

Two great games launched this weekend! Makopudding released Gretel & Hansel 2, bringing the trilogy 2/3rds to completion:

The Treasure Hunt will likely start later this week!

Speaking of treasure, we can't keep the Mystery Box in stock! We even resorted to giving away two Gamecubes, although you shouldn't really expect a game console with purchase. Thank you everyone who has purchased one so far, you're cleaning out the office faster than expected. I think we'll have to ask popular artists to bring their own cherished items to Pico Day this year and make a contribution to future boxes.

Although still a little buggy, hansel & gretel 2 was just damn amaaazing!

can't wait to see what that game evil-dog and SDF are cooking up is all about!

[YoinK]

i've got a game that's near completion. :D

[thies]

Gretel and Hansel is awesome!

[EJR]

Cool, I'm gonna check out the games now.

RIP Mystery boxes.

[BoMToons]

Gretel and Hansel = epic

[Donut]

I wish i got a gamecube.
But the oldschool girls shirt was awesome, too.

[StalkerGuy]

Thats great

[headphenomenon]

OMG, being called awesome by Tom is the best thing an NG'er could wish for. All praise the SickDeath guy.

[thenewbies]

D-A-M-N dude.

[TehSlapHappy]

I didn't get a mystery box.

I actually just bought my 4th one.

[LDAF]

Can't wait till I can get my own mystery box... :3

[Boss]

i will donate VHS tapes video games and small toys from my childhood if i get 50 cents for every mystery box i put stuff in

[CommanderWalrus]

Man, those Gamecube winners are lucky guys.

With my luck, if I had bought one I would just have gotten a box of dust.

[DemiseAnimation]

Haha had fun playing those :)

Coincidence? I think not.

I know we're so biased!

[Evil-Dog]

Thanks for the awesome plug Tom!

[Oolaph]

w00t!

[Manly-Chicken]

I'm working on a halloween game and already know what I'll be choosing for the treasure hunt.

[Wunderbar]

Bye bye Mystery Box.

Tom please do it again when the office is cluttered.

I'm such a n00b for not getting one.

[TomFulp]

The Mystery Boxes will likely return sporadically and in small quantities - we still have plenty of junk in the office, we just have to decide what we're willing to part with.

You should totally grow another beard, shave it off, glue it into a beard wig and put it in a mystery box

Tom Fulp for halloween, biotch!

[gumOnShoe]

I had some trouble with glitches here and there, but for the rest Gretel & Hansel 2 was awesome. Can't wait for the third part.
