Greetings, you lovely people you!!
This is the first collab that I've ever hosted and it actually turned out pretty flippin' cool!
I want to take a moment to celebrate the sense of togetherness we've cultivated through this collab. It's incredible to see all the different styles and perspectives converging to form a vibrant celebration of love!!
In the spirit of embracing love in all its forms, let's be kind not only to others but also to ourselves. Whether you're sharing this day with a special someone, spending it solo, or navigating some sort of a situationship, know that you're not alone. We're in this together, and your worth extends far beyond the confines of any romantic status. You are cherished and appreciated!
As you take a look through these beautiful pieces of art, let them serve as a reminder that love takes the form of countless shapes and colors. May this Valentine's Day be a reflection of the love that surrounds us and the unique ways we express and experience it.
Thank you for being the vibrant energy that breathes life into this collab. Here's to the artists who planted seeds of imagination and to the viewers who watered them with appreciation.
without you, this collab would've been nothing. Your devotion to your creativity is worth more than a million bags of sweetheart candies!!
We love you, Newgrounds!!

Cute little art collab! Wonderful to see so much entries within this: couldn't believe the way it just kept going and going! Very well done on wrangling all of this together and getting some positivity out there.
Now I give you the loveliest gift I can think of, which is brutally honest feedback (the love nobody asks for, haha):
*The general interface is a bit of an eyesore where everything kind of blends together in bright colors, making certain features like the Previous/Next buttons difficult to read and not pop to the foreground as much as they should. Mayhaps a little bit of desaturation of the background, outlining of text, and other simple elements would help readability.
*I was a bit bummed that the collab chose a very basic slideshow presentation instead of opting for something really creative. I got a bit interested with the heart and candy box on the side as I thought that maybe they had some sort of interesting powers, like the heart being some sort of voting system or maybe sending a message to the artist, and the candy box being some sort of button to go to a random valentine or get commentary from the artist, but it seems like they're just kind of there for no important purpose. I think a more creative presentation would help viewer retention, as without some sort of interesting gimmick, I wouldn't blame a lot of people for getting bored halfway!
*There is some missing functionality that I feel should be present, such as a gallery view, zoom/pan functions for viewing the art, and being able to easily click on the artist's name to go to their NG profile for potential follows and seeing the art in its original NG page (if possible) for potential votes. I feel like more love gets spread this way when you make things easier to interface with!
*It's wonderful that you have so many entries for this, but because the list is so long and it is alphabetically sorted, I feel bad for whoever's username starts with letters like X, Y or Z as I think they're going to get absolutely shafted in that a lot of people probably won't have the patience to get to their entries at the end. Perhaps it would've been better if there were some sort of big thumbnail gallery view where you can see many at once and click on them for more details, or a search function, or maybe the list should be randomly sorted (perhaps you could even make a fun gimmick out of the randomness, like make a mailbox gacha machine that gives letters which you open up to see their cards).
Again, well done on this and your heart's in the right place, but yeah, I'm a big nitpicker and want art collabs to do more than just the bare minimum!
KhaosKitsune617 responds:
thanks for feedback. also i believe a reaction system should be implemented
zombehattack responds:
As one of the poor sods with a z username, I appreciate that last point a lot XD.
TheFandomKid responds:
Thank you for the review man, glad you shared your honest opinion :)
Have a nice day!
BoiledMilkz responds:
nice review.
BlueKnightSkeleton responds:
Yeah, idk why but i thought the little hearts would be for a voting thing lol, but yeah, cool opinion.
Questtrek responds:
Thank you for the constructive criticism; I completely agree. When I initially reviewed this collab, I described the UI as "cute", and while I still stand by that, that does not mean I think that it is good. The colors clash, and it's hard to read the text.
I mentioned wow I liked "the little animations", but I was really only referring to the start button with hearts. While I do like those animations, I wish there was more, specifically when flipping through art. Maybe the art could pop a little bit every time it switches, something more energetic than the switching of a PNG.
There's too many people for a simple slideshow. One idea I suggested (in another response) was to randomize the order of everyone's art each time the flash game is started, so that way even people further down the alphabet will be seen.
Also, Flash. While I do love things made with Flash, I don't think it was the right call here. There's a lot of assets, and it's at a high resolution. Several people complained of long load times and/or lag. This should have been done as a Unity or Godot game, or something else that doesn't have to be sent through ruffle first.
Also the fact that there is no button to mute the music is annoying. I don't hate the music, but a choice to disable it would have been nice.
SkellART responds:
I was hoping that the heart was a voting system too at first but hey maybe next year will bring something a little different.
Maybe next year the candy box could serve to take you to the Artist's profile instead of having to scroll down to find it.
wamyremy responds:
omfg am i gonna be in a FutureCopLGF video.....
(actually probably not, my entry's like wayy too far on the other end LMAO)
but thank you for the feedback! <3
This reminds me of when they rejected me in the worst way on the 14th, I felt humiliated, insulted, assaulted, murdered, everything.
Gray responds:
Erm
KeatonGamer1248 responds:
Gosh... I'm sorry that happened, and that you feel that way. But yeah, on the bright side, whoever rejected you seems like a total piece of crap who'd probably use you even if they did accept you.
Questtrek responds:
I know how you feel, I was rejected on Valentine's Day as well (last year). Take it from me though, if they really hurt you that bad, it's a good thing you are not dating them. Find someone who will really care, then even if they reject you, they will still understand you.
My advice:
- Find someone you care about, and who also cares about you.
- An attempt at a romantic relationship will not salvage a dying friendship (as I painfully discovered).
- You will find someone, eventually. It took years for me, but I eventually found someone who I love deeply. It just takes time.
I'm sorry if this advice is basic or cliche, but it is what I have learned through experience. Remember, Valentine's Day doesn't really mean anything, it's just a consumerism-fueled day that is really no different from any other.
Buena suerte; No olvides amarte a ti también.
TheFandomKid responds:
Oh my, I'm truly sorry, it must've hurt a lot. I know how it feels to get rejected, but try to look at the bright side. Maybe that person wasn't the right one. He/She/They sounds like a real jackass. I'm pretty sure there's someone WAYYY better waiting for you!
Don't let an idiot ruin your day, it's (was) Valentine's day! Have fun with yourself or friends instead of caring abt that person.
(Tell me where he lives, Imma beat the shitty shit outta him>:)))) )
Cpt-McN00b responds:
For real? My condolences. Look on the bright side (from a guy who has absolutely no experience with romance), the person who rejected you that way is probably a jackass and what you're doing now is most likely way better than spending time with them.
TheBestBroster responds:
aww man that suuuuucks! liiiikkeeee
Thetageist responds:
On the bright side, if your crush was that rude to you, it sounds like you dodged a bullet. The trash took itself out.
Now go treat yourself, be your own Valentine this year. You deserve it.
chillzozen responds:
ohh.. im sorry for that.. hey i could be yo late val.. if you want..?
im here for you pal. dont worry.
Tomafokio responds:
Oh, I'm really sorry for you...
BoiledMilkz responds:
