wow ths was long
PG, Tom Fulp, and many others say goodbye to Flash by making One Last Game.

NOTE: Wondering why the audio quality sounds different than usual? We're changing how we tackle the editing of our shows, opting to keep them a little looser and closer to the original recording. Think of it less like a buttoned-up official Podcast™ and more like an archive recording of an awesome live event. (That you can totally be part of. And should. Pressure pressure pressure.)

Hey, this was a huge show. So, as a send-off to Adobe Flash and a celebration of Ruffle and NG's efforts to preserve a generation of online games, a HUGE group of game developers decided to make one final game project on the platform. A few months of blood, sweat and tears later, many of these very developers are HERE to talk about the experience.
@PsychoGoldfish is joined by @TomFulp, @JohnnyUtah (for a bit), @Xinxinix (later on), and many, many guests. Tom also fields a ton of great Newgrounds-related questions from the guests and the audience. It's a good time.
Just a reminder to those who need it: Long podcasts are great to split up and listen to over several sessions! Don't bail on this episode just because you see the length -- give it a shot, you can always come back and pick up where you left off!

lov dis
I spent an hour just drawing some of the random things you guys were talking about.
listened to the whole podcast while animating
totally worth it
:O
I have never heard Tom Fulp’s voice despite being a user of Newgrounds since 2004.
Hi Tom! :D
Having done some stuff like this before on my livestream, I absolutely want you guys to know that I empathize. It can be really rough to find that conversational flow, especially in a live and un-cut environment. It’s almost like the pressure of knowing that extends the awkward silences a bit. I think it could’ve been much worse. Also, I applaud you for responding to the honest-yet-rough reviews.
That said, I don’t think this was all bad. In the next episode I heard the one guy saying “it’s worth 1.5 stars at best” in reference to this episode, and I think that’s unfair. I really enjoyed the insights and viewpoints that I wouldn’t have otherwise known. Honestly this whole “Flash go bye-bye” thing is a shocker to me- not being a programmer and having played so many Flash games. It was jarring in the way that it would be if I typed Google into my address bar and discovered the whole website was gone.
Keep doing what you guys do!
