Edit:

***DISCLAIMER!!!***

Due to my recent name change I’ve had mixed reviews. I will try it out for a whole month, if it turns out that I don’t like it anymore I will revert this change.

Name Change!

Yo yo yo! How's it goin' guys? It's Ant here! >:]

As you can tell I have had my name changed from "8BitAnt" to just "Ant" since I don't really wanna be known as "8BitAnt" anymore.

I have been contemplating this decision for a while now and I have finally made the decision.

My old link still redirects to my account which is great too so people don't question why I was "banned".

I'll be taking some time soon to work on changing my main socials somehow.

Anyways, thanks to @TomFulp for helping me with this, I appreciate it. :3

Other news...

I am currently working on a new game that will basically be one of those Microsoft Windows Parody games so stay tuned y'all.

It might also take a bit longer than expected to be released since I have an extremely high chance of having covid and I am not going to school or anywhere for a little while.

Stay safe guys, and have a great day! :D

Alrighty, lets break down to the bits and bobs. I have received so many munchkins from thine corpse. Do you even have to know how hard it is to fondle sunch trench foobs. I don't understand this corbel search thy first gongle has risen on the 34th of threnchelise and I cannot forget the massacre of the south. Please remember that it is NOT ok to be doing horrible dore jargins in your bedroom. If so, lungs you have might combust. I just can't wait till the forbes police kill stater over there. All it does is gross out the rembembems. Thanks for your patience.

(Man the donuts are good, especially with mashet tators and wieners.)

So if you're wondering what imma be doin on here I'll tell ya right now, I'll mostly just be doing collab stuff with big groups or friends and at the moment I am going to stop making games and animations for a while until I get better.

Here's a collab I did with @GrantTheHierophant:

@HawtDogull

Hello everyone.

I am sure you have read my last news post. I have been on a break for the past couple weeks but I think that it's time I retire. Due to lack of motivation to continue what I do on here and other various reasons, I have decided that I am quitting Newgrounds along with my other social media accounts besides Discord. (Add me if u wanna chat: Ant#1060) I am honestly not liking any of the submissions I make here anyways and think they are all stupid. Now that I have had my break I have thought over some stuff and came to the conclusion that I don't like programming as much as I thought I did... I have also realized that during my break I have felt so much better and a lot less stressed and sad. I have had a couple moments during my break but now that I have breathed a bit and moved on from those times I think that my mental state may improve. I do not know what I am going to do now since I have been bored out of my mind but at least I still have my friends, family and my lovely girlfriend to spend time with. I think that I'll find something to do later on in the future. If I ever post anything here it's most likely projects I am just finishing up or collaborations that I was or am a part of. I honestly don't like my popularity either, it scares me and makes me nervous... Social media in this day and age is just not a healthy place for me to be. I appreciate all you guys have done throughout my journey here on Newgrounds but it's now time I leave. Like I said though I'll be active on Discord so hmu on there if you have any questions or just wanna chat, I am completely open to that. (Again its Ant#1060) I hope you guys are doing better than I am rn and also that you have a good rest of your day.

Goodbye everyone, I love you all. <3

- Ant

P.S.

I might be back later on in the future, just with school and stuff social media tends to stress me out… thanks for all the very kind messages everyone, you guys truly are the best!

I’m just not feeling too good about NG right now, hell I don’t even wanna be on any other social media sites right now. If you wanna speak to me then join my discord or friend me, my tag is Ant#1060. I’m just done man I can’t do this shit rn. My motivation is at an all time low and I’m not feeling too good either. So bye for a while until I randomly return or whatever.

Doobus Killing Simulator

Hi @Doobus-Goobus, hope you liked dying 5 times! (kinda)

Btw @Tyro1301 you did a fantastic job on those animations!

Hexagons: Out of Grasp

"Hexagons: Out of Grasp", is a 2D shooter where you need to find keys to open gates and advance into the next level. You will have a handful of different enemies to fight while finding the keys. Nothing can be too hard when you have your reliable plastic wrap cannon though! With your cannon, and possibly a few allies down the road, you are sure to make it through the levels and escape the hexagon mothership!

Also fun fact: This was made for a school project, I hope you enjoy(ed) it!

[Thx to @t0mToM for a lot of help on da gaem!!!]

Awesome fan art!!!!

Summary

The past couple months have been really fun but it guess what, there is wayyyyyy more dumb shit from me and my friends to come so please stick around and be sure to stay tuned.

Thanks again for everything guys, it means a lot!

Have a good rest of your day :D

🍈🍈🍈

Hello guys.

This is a kinda serious vent post so don’t read it if you don’t wanna hear me ramble about stuff that’s been bothering me.

As you all know I love posting dumb submissions here on Newgrounds, but sometimes I have the paranoid feeling of a lot of people disliking me for making stuff that’s admittedly kinda cringe sometimes. I mean sure it may seem like it but I am not a little kid doing dumb bullshit on the internet, I am a stupid guy trying to live his life and share his odd humor with his friends here on NG.

For those who dislike me for who I am or what I create:

(Check out the bold text in the section “Long Story Short” if you do legitimately dislike me.)

I am sorry if some of the stuff I make is not your thing sometimes. The reason I make a lot of weird submissions is simply because I may find it funny, or more commonly I am talking to a good friend of mine and we start joking which leads to me making something really stupid. One example being “In loving memory of shrek…” which is just an obnoxious game where you control shrek going through a maze whilst constantly changing sizes which is really annoying. I occasionally make things that others find to be really dumb, pointless, and shitty. But most of my submissions (if not all) are nothing but jokes that no one except for me and my friends get. But I constantly get the feeling that people hate my guts and it makes me feel terrible. This is one of the reasons I’ve slowed down ever since Money Man, and even I don’t think that game is good. But trust me, eventually in the future once I’m out of what I call the “Learning Phase” in which I am currently in I will try my best to make much more enjoyable and fun games and/or animations that everyone will like, just give me some time to learn how to do things, but in the meantime I will be making these really dumb submissions until I can finally make something really cool, just be patient!

To those who support my work and love what I make:

Please, please tell me if you like the content I create or not cause I feel down about it sometimes and I am beginning to consider quitting or just changing everything about me completely. But if you do like what I make, I really can’t appreciate it enough, but I have one thing I’d like to mention, I don’t like the following I have on this site. I feel as if there are so much more talented people other than me that deserve what I have. I just don’t think I deserve the amount of support I get for my low quality work. Whilst yes it’s kinda my style I just think that it’s really dumb… I do appreciate all 1k of you but I wish that you’d support some other talented creators that can do what I do except better. Thing is, I don’t want you to take this the wrong way either cause I love all of you and I hope that you stick around for my future creations. So hopefully you all understand why I feel this way.

Long story short:

I feel misunderstood and like people hate me for being myself sometimes and I feel like I might wanna quit. Although the stuff I make is dumb it’s just me practicing to get better, slowly but surely I plan on making really cool content for everyone to enjoy. But in the meantime I’ll continue to make what I make and do what I do for now and do what I enjoy along with collaborating with friends to make some neat stuff. I encourage those who do dislike me to reach out to me on here or on Discord about it, I won’t get mad I’d just like to see your perspective. And to my friends and fans, I love all of you guys and I hope that you have a great day/night, take care! <3 <3 <3
