ITS TIIIIIIIIIIIIME

That's right. its the moment you've all been waiting for. the toys are ready for harvest.

this collab has been super successful, even before posting. it's the largest collab i've ever hosted and honestly by no means could i have done this by myself. that being said, its time for me to give a couple people their flowers.

@EmsDeLaRoz

can we say, the goat. ems was the programmer for this collab, and even did most of the art for the game itself. he definitely had the lion's share of work, but he ALWAYS delivers. the game is just awesome. if i had to name the people who had helped me get to where i am on newgrounds right now, ems would definitely be at the top of the list. he's a fast worker and overall just a nice and easy going guy. we've worked together on both the pokemon mystery meat collab and the pokemon variance collab, which are again collabs which would've never happened without his help. i have never seen this guy flinch ONCE when given a task. Just an awesome guy who's super underrated for all the work he does, please check him out. He does a lot of non-collab stuff too!

@Creeperforce24

its very funny that most of the team that worked on the pokemon mystery meat collab came back to work for this project, but i guess you cant deny a dynamic trio. creeperforce is much like ems, someone who's very chill and easy to work with. Despite me coming to him near the deadline of the collab, he was able to finish the music for it in a very timely manner. He's been getting up on the frontpage recently with his music, so you've probably heard of him beforehand but if you havent go check out his work and give him a follow. here's the song!

@LegolaSS

LegolaSS reach out to me of his own will to do some art beyond a standard entry for toybox, and im very grateful for the absolute BANGER he produced. you may have seen his work for the collab before as it was very rightfully frontpaged. its got a very awesome, classic newgrounds vibe that i absolutely could not have replicated on my own. it was a very kind offer to help on his end, and you should totally check out his work. i've linked his art portal post below

and.. YOU!!

what is this? the end credits of a indie video game? but seriously, collabs are nothing without the people who support them. i'd like to thank all of you for showing interest in this collab, whether you made an actual entry or you were just checking things out as they went along. i hope you all enjoy the final product! it was tons of fun seeing all the entries and positive comments. i know this was a lot of people's first collab, and im happy we were able to provide that experience for you all!

if you're curious about my next plans, im pretty sure im just going to chillax for a bit. i'm thinking of doing some art related contests / neat things instead of collabs, as i have been listening to multiple people talk of the oversaturation of collabs. No idea what the next collab idea coming from me might be, but i'll be thinking! see you next time newgrounds!
