If you're planning on modifying the existing file you'd better ask Tom about that. ;) As for parodying/making entirely new games inspired by the original that should be fine, there's been at least a few of those done earlier:

I'll create a tag alias so either works.

Alright, thank you!
is there going to be a gif at the beginning of animations and games like pico day 2007?
like maybe we can all put a drawing of pico on here with a download and someone can make it into a gif

Not sure. I made a candy-inspired one since Wick' doesn't let me make a loader:

Pico Day started in the forums as a day celebrating Pico but has become more of a Newgrounds Day, where the theme is to celebrate all the cool original characters you can find on NG.
To participate, create a movie, game, song or work of art celebrating something you love on Newgrounds. Upload it on May 1st and tag it with PicoDay2021.
As always, you may not use unlicensed commercial music, like songs from the radio. This is an ideal time to find music in the Audio Portal or from our royalty-free resources. Every song in the Audio Portal has info in the lower left column specifying if you are welcome to use it. Some musicians would even love to create an original piece for your movie or game!
Our advanced search options are handy for searching by song permissions and song length. For example here is music between 1:30-1:40 in length that has a CC license allowing commercial use.
There are also artists who don't choose a CC license allowing commercial use but do check our exception box for stuff that is ok to use in web-based movies and games. You can also set date ranges to only browse more recent music, as well as browsing by genres and tags.
Similarly, please don't use audio from film / television / etc..

ok
I have made 2 pieces of art so far that I can submit when the time is right. One is poster style featuring Pico School characters. The other piece is a character art of Monster from FNF. I'm not sure if I should make more pieces and if I were to make more, what characters would they be of.

Even though Pico's in the name of the day it doesn't have to be just about Pico. Any other mascots or popular NG characters are fine. The There She Is! ones have been around a long time so they should be too.

It does seem that way yeah. :) Wonder if FNF fans will start exploring alternative content here and get some other submissions to crash too, or if server issues will get fixed first...
hey how are y´all doing?
Going pretty good btw, how about you?
