So another year has passed and a lot of things happened! While content was a lot slower due to school and life happening, I still reached a lot of goals that I set for this year! Firstly, I read over 100 fans which to some may not seem like a lot, but I'm glad to have you all here. Alongside that one of my games got a daily reward, more on that a bit later.
Now let's get into the timeline of major events that happened this year!
To start off the year, the Sketch Collab 2023 released which I animated a part in! (Not to be confused with the Sketch Collab 2024)

A few days later I made this digital art piece to celebrate me beat Conker's Bad Fur Day for the first time!

A bit later I remade my very first Newgrouds art piece!

When school started up again, I started making traditional art since I had to study for semester exams when I got home.

Then summer began, which with it brought my ankle surgery and months of going to physical therapy to recover, thus these two art pieces being the only ones made shortly after I was able to start walking.

The third one in the series of seven drawings is still being worked on, I just have lots of other stuff to finish first.
I wanted to make some more music and I still do, but I got massive block around this time so I made this cover.
Talkin' Smack! - 8 Bit Remix
I started watching Demon Slayer after a year and made this one!

To fill in the upload gap I published this old art piece that I love.

While I had school on Madness Day, I still managed to make this art piece for @Krinkels!

Once again a filler art piece with this one being done while I was still in a wheelchair recovering from surgery!

Due to certain events in my life around this time, I created the character Rein with his art pieces all being here.

I had been watching Pink Floyd concerts, and noticed this guy that I thought would be cool to draw!
Go on, Judge! by CalamityGanon on Newgrounds
November was a very experimental month for my art to say the least with monster like these being created.
A Collection of Monsters by CalamityGanon on Newgrounds
The "November artworks" as I call them, were heavily inspired by the works of Gerald Scarfe, HR Giger, and MC Escher!
And now for the biggest project of 2024, Kill the Turkey!

You can read all about it in the description, and hopefully I can finish the video explaining the development process and references in it!
Now for a list of things to come in the future!
Some of this has been said in my 2023 Recap from last year, but I'll go over it again and give some more details!
The third Extreme Madness Combat (I swear I'll finish it one day)
The untitled Pico game that's stuck in development hell due to me wanting to switch game development engines to make it better.
The Metroidvania game Extron that's stuck in the same spot as the Pico game.
Now for some new news.
An animation related to my game, Russian Roulette!
I've decided to take on the challenge of making an animated music video for @Creeperforce24's song -Censored-!
A possible 40 second Micropop style song inspired by Jack Stauber's Micropop!
A full length album!
Maybe next year, if not then, one day, a self-published book titled The Endless Road!
It'll also have it's own soundtrack based around events in the book!
Some fanarts of people's OC's should be coming out as soon as I get back into digital art in a few days.
Maybe even drawing request of people's OC's if there's enough demand.
Until then, this has been CalamityGanon, Happy New Year, and thank you all.
