Just a quick message from me to the Newgrounds community to say a massive thank you for the reception you've given Hug Marine. I really am genuinely moved by it - this is my first game, I made it in a month-long game jam for people with full-time jobs, and to have it do this well and be so appreciated is incredible.
I've known this site since I was a kid - back in the days before YouTube, and to actually have people say "hey, this is great" after a childhood full of checking out all the stuff made by people I was a fan of has been an experience I'll always remember.
Yes, there are more games coming! I have no plans whatsoever to let this be the only thing failnaut throws at the NG community, so keep an eye out this year, as you'll be seeing better and more developed work from my little corner of the world.
*raises glass* To Newgrounds!

Tom,
When I was a kid, you were THE game designer that we knew. I went completely bananas when I saw you on my list of fans, and to get a comment from you is definitely a highlight of working on Hug Marine. Looking forward to sharing my future work with you!
