Not a single game by ZEGMAN? I at least expected rivea somewhere up there. It's the most awesome bullet hell game I've played so far, of course with close competition of Matt-loves-swords' game.

Every movie/game I would have wanted nominated is already up there.

Fudge, I bypassed my prep file! I'll edit and toss that in.

yeah, well, maybe you should fix the messed up quote formatting in my post while you're still flaunting that fancy schmanzy better-than-us-mere-mortals edit button.

I did it out of curiosity and looks like it never works under a rich content link... I had to add some dummy text in there.

I'll be simple and blunt: Anything that's ORIGINAL. That should narrow things down a fair amount. However, an example should be provided to help my case so one movie that did come to mind from 2012 was this:

You've already gotten lucky day and Abobo up there, I can't complain!

[Mockery]

Feels really great to have Abobo's Big Adventure in the running after all those years of development. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed, because nothing would be cooler than winning best game of 2012 on Newgrounds. Thanks for all the support for this project over the years, everybody! I really means a lot.

Congrats to all the other movie and game nominees as well. Lotta great submissions last year!

The game itself should be pretty much wrapped up this week, then we gotta plug in the Passport support so people can participate on any site it appears on. Hopeful for a launch next week, we'll see how it goes!

Providing you can see into the future, that is.

[RYNOL]

I can't think of anything off the top of my head that I think is missing from that list.

My personal picks are up there anyway.
