Great!
The only way it would be better is if the score and the author details popped up with it as well.

[Dosensuppen]

Alright, love back to the Classic Portal.

[Viper]

Thumbnails have returned to the Classic Portal. Enjoy!

THANK YOU! i can't begin to describe how much i missed that!

...oh and congratulations to the winners
although i particularly enjoyed Slime's Cake Quest most out of the top 3

[bigjonny13]

I'm not surprised at the top 3 game jam winners, although I would have put slime's cake quest at number one, and the other two shifted down a level.

[Tyler]

woo! third place! congrats to the other winners too.

[f12guy]

Grats to the winners!
The thumbnails are sexier than i remember.

[Rawnern]

Awesome... but when is HTML5 coming? Give us some info - I need to start working soon!

HTML5 is on Goldfish's priority list after some project system updates - namely project unpublishing and moderator unpublishing.

Ok. It would be awsome with some information a little while before the release, though! If there is some special API or frame we need to know. Or if it is a hosted app (on own server) that's OK!

I do agree with this. I'm curious who judged the jam this time and whether they have any comments about the games and the jam as a whole.

I do want to thank Austin for creating the jam and Tom for sponsoring it!

People should note that the Newgrounds game jam is pretty much the only game jam I've found to give such monetary prizes. Most other jams just have the "honor or participation" as the reward.

Everyone who has participated should be proud of themselves. The fact that you've collaborated, possibly with people you've never worked with before, in under 72 hours, under a lot of pressure, to create something is amazing. Whether you won or not, you went away with a game concept and made new team members. A game concept that you know whether it works or not because you've prototyped it. And if it didn't work, then you know why it wasn't fun, and you can improve it.

And just to encourage people more, an example I cite a lot, this game:

Was first made in a 48 hour game jam as an experiment, then later made as a full game.

[LewToons]

Hell yeah to thumbnails!

[N1nj4X]

Well, I finished seeing all the work, and are really impressive. I really enjoyed the music, the "NGHH12 ZombieGurlz" is my favorite. Congratulations to all winners.

Yeah, I would love to hear some feedback on the games by the judges. Helps us improve for the next jam that comes around.

[Suprememessage]

The entries look really good. I'm going to have to play them when I get the time.
