I still can’t get over the fact that 123 people came together to bring this game to life. It truly blows my mind! The fact that it was all accomplished in just a month makes it even more incredible. I genuinely think everyone involved should feel so proud of what they’ve achieved ❤️
HO HO HOPE you become a Newgrounds Supporter this year!

Fun fact: the main pixels on screen work of Tankmas began in November! I came on as co-runner around then and started getting the MVP going, learning net coding (later reworked by Jefvel) and setting up the framework for everything, later joined by SplatterDash on that front.
Next year I hope to get started sooner, get messages out to artists much sooner too, and I think with some prep work and a good code base (which we got now!) there’s no limit to what we can do :D
MrShmoods responds:
Still waiting on 9 invites, so that makes 132!
Thanks @TankmasTeam
I'm still happy till today that my entry for Sketch Collab 2024!
I feel like I'm part of the Newgrounds community!
I am looking forward what is next for the collaborations here at Newgrounds!! :3
JSuika responds:
Same here as well 😭
I'm really glad that you did participate the Sketch Collab!
This was one heck of a ride, I'll tell ya what, and definitely one worth remembering! Thank you to everybody who worked so hard to bring this project to life and also to all who took time out of their days to watch Tankmas grow throughout the month, you rule.
Fingers crossed this tradition will continue to thrive and in the meantime, make sure y'all are staying on Santa's nice list, you hear? Krampus out ✌️
squidly responds:
Thanks for your amazing submission! If I'm around in my post-Renaine life, a lot of people have expressed interest in helping me run this thing next year and with some proper organization we'll be really cooking, so look forward to it 👀
JSuika responds:
I agree, this was one of the most hardwork collab I've ever seen. Sadly couldn't participate in drawing for the tankmas adventure except for Pico Cross Collab. I'm hoping to see the game once it's finished (..hopefully) but actually it takes a lot more time to have it done immediately. 🔨
This truly was a Tankmas to remember. Hope to see you all again next year!
squidly responds:
Seeya next year!
