This was meant to be posted at the end of the contest, but it couldn't wait. I just say that to give context as to the sappy message I'm attaching:

Thank you.

This whole thing is important, for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, the knowledge that I can make something people like. That's... kind of my whole life goal, yknow? Make stuff people like? This whole contest marks probably the largest amount of people to ever see my artwork, of any kind, and that's kind of big.

So thank you for your support, if you've voted for the TV dude! And thank you for supporting the other artists in the finals too!

But while the contest may end, I'm just getting started. If you want to come with on the rest of the journey, I've got twitter, newgrounds, and a couple other places too. The future promises some amazing stuff, and I'd be honored to have even a couple of you come along.

edit:

Whoops! all failure! My message of thanks still stands though, as does the invitation to come with me as we march on into the future. Hopefully nobody is too disgruntled by the narrow loss, but it's fine. All the winners are cool, and I think people will be able to do a lot with them. Here's to the future, eh?

Hey, guess what? Looks like Mr. TV got into the game anyway. Basically the moral of the story is that Relogic are amazing. I'd like to thank everyone who voted for him, and everyone who vocally expressed their love for the design, and most of all Relogic. And Red. You know what you did.

Go play Terraria, everybody.
