Just a quick reminder that the July Game Jam entry that me and @Erik made, Little Hatchet is still under Judgement.

Make sure to vote 5 and give both of us a follow.

Rats? I'm outraged. I was promised dog or higher!

Don't know what Flash Flood is? It's an event by the Clock Crew where participants submit one movie every day for the entire month of February.

Last month, Adobe officially ended support for Flash, even tried to block us from playing Flash content. But that didn't stop the Flash Flood from taking place. Unfortunately, us clocks weren't able to win any awards higher than Daily 3rd, no one got frontpaged, and no one won Underdog or Review Crew Pick.

The Flood was almost halted when a mysterious blammer started terrorizing Newgrounds and blamming our early entries. They have since been banned, but who knows if or when they'll return.

But it's not all bad news. We were able to submit Flash Flood entries for other overlapping events. D-Va participated in the Flash Forward Jam and the Friday Night Funkin Animation Jam, while I submitted two collab entries.

Let's recap what went on this February.

Flash Highlights

Here are some episodic shows created for the Flood. Two of them span the entire flood.

The Eldritch Ensemble by PannacottaClock: A house tour from PannacottaClock goes awry when a godly being traps all the guests in a pocket dimension.

Late Night with D-Va Clock by D-VaClock: A talk-show hosted in D-VaClock's room

Frog Flood by Anonymous Frog: a nonsensical show surrounding the journeys of the Anonymous Frog and a few other Clocks.

ThorClock Breaks Free by ThorClock: (almost) exactly what it says, ThorClock breaks free.

Clock Junior by RedbookClock: Clock Jr returns for its second season. To avoid spoilers, watch the first season

Jungle Adventure Flounderman by FloundermanClock: The stunning new prequel to Space Adventure Flounderman, (also included in the playlist) with cavemen.

Here are 10 of our best standalone submissions

And here's the full collection:

I'd like to thank everyone for supporting this year's Flood, voting 5, and submitting all these wonderful movies!

Recently, we at the Clock Crew tried to launch another Flash Flood. The first two to submit entries, longtime veteran ThorClock and newcomer AnonymousFrogClock (me) got blammed just hours after uploading. I suspect foul play.

They all seem to follow the same trend. They all come out of judgement really quickly, sometimes even less than 1 hour, only to come out with a really low score. Other victims include the 'Ghost of Tsushima Collab' from the Star Syndicate, (which I participated in), and I've also had other movies go through judgement following this trend.

This is something the Newgrounds staff really needs to look into, because some people can get their content wrongfully blammed. I think mods should be able to intervene with the Judgement process a little bit to protect those that didn't deserve it.

In the future, if you ever stumble across a Clock movie, respect their wishes if they ask you to vote 5.
