Tango Gameworks and Arkane Austin are dead, and the layoffs and studio killing Is only getting worst. what a time to be alive.

Moral of the story: Never, NEVER, celebrate corporate fusions and acquisitions, ever.

So basically saying that TheBackAlleys and Newgrounds are simply related It's an understatement. It was truly more.

this is debatably "ambient" but it's soothing & mysterious
personal favorite track is "WR" at 10:20

oh man, this is a good question actually. i'll have to collect my thoughts on it first. i haven't thought about it in a while. the wayback machine can give you some snapshots of this sites' history in the meantime.

if you have the time i would be interested to read rtil's tba history. i have lots of memories/stories but idk how to put them in context

tl;dr in the flash glory days great minds of newgrounds congregated here to talk shit, collaborate & discuss the meta. chaos reigned

Yeah not that I'm the best person to go into details, but I wouldn't even know where to start. I do think having some sort of understanding of early Newgrounds culture (and the counter-cultures within that sphere) would be needed to get going..

It's always fascinating to see the look of the old web, not only Alleys but also places like DeviantArt and Newgrounds (Newgrounds being the most visually appealing). I'm also got attracted to those old series projects I saw In the snapshots.
