@KingCrowned - @Aalasteir (Q)
Q: How did you discover Newgrounds? Have you always been interested in the Internet?
Well Newgrounds has been on my mind ever since I was a kid. I’ve played games that were made by people on the site like Henry stickmin, riddle school, the impossible quiz, and even watched some animations here. I fully didn’t really engage much on social medias till like 2021 which is the start of my online shtick. I only really watched some YouTube and been on discord till then.
Q: How did you get interested in drawing and animating?
Y’know I’ve actually been more on the creative side ever since I was a kid. My mom would remind me that I recreated a scene from a Paper Mario Sticker Star commercial on the TV. Other than that I really didn’t know I wanted to be an artist; I had no desires to be one, so I just played games. Then at the start of 2021, I got grounded for a good few months and lost all my game consoles and my phone. Being that bored, I found an old art book that I got gifted by a wonderful speech teacher before Covid and just started drawing. By being bored, I quickly learned how to draw and now here I am today being me. As for animation, I never really thought of the bigger picture of animation when watching cartoon shows or animations on the internet, I just thought it was cool. Then during 2021, I made a few very still animations for just a little series I had in my brain. They’re gone and will never be open to the public ever again. However, during late 2022, I wanted to get back into animation through sheer boredom yet again and tried to make an animation for the big boy rumble tumble thing going on, but couldn’t do it in time. So I then joined the sketch collab 2022, and it was all history. I quickly learned how to animate, and even started my own new series “Using the______” featuring my character, Gameen and people really seem to like them and my other animations and that makes me really happy :). I have many plans on doing more in the future and thanks y’all for supporting my work <3
Q: What do you think about collabs?
Well during 2021, I thought they were neat. I’ve joined a few and playing them were a blast, but slowly I started seeing a more “over saturation” of collabs now and I’m also guilty of this now as I started an animation collab all about brainrot lol, but I’m more so talking about like “art gallery” type of collabs that you just click an arrow and see all of the submissions. Now I did join collabs like that, but I wanna see like more animation collabs, more newgrounds game jams, and animation jams. It’s all collabs n stuff and that just starts getting overwhelming. I mean sure it brings the community together to do a collab, but some collabs are more boring than others. I’m just glad now that you don’t have to do an art gallery collab with the art portal update and can put it in the art portal instead. This is just my opinion though. If you disagree with me, that’s fine. If you agree with what I say, that’s also fine and I respect you no matter what as long as you give me the same treatment as well
Q: What do you think when somebody doesn't vote 5 on your movies?
ok. I mean the last few were very much rushed like im doing some sort of animation jam, so it’s understandable… errr I mean grrr I hate those who don’t give me a 5 star
Q: Weed

Q: ???

Q: Weed
I NEED MORE!!!!!
Q: Who made you King?
Me. Im the king and I’ve been crowned one
Q: Who is the gayest Newgrounds?
ughhh this one guy name Aalasteir. He’s such a faggot that i can’t believe there isn’t someone else that’s more of a faggot than him
Q: How did you come up with the Nemgrounds Brainrot Scam Ad Collab?
So a few days ago, a bunch of people in the newgrounds discord server vc and I were just doing plain o’ goofs till we were talking about brainrot and that spiraled into me creating the collab. So I didn’t really come up with it, It was a community effort and I brought it to light. Parodying brainrot sounds like something newgrounds would love to do and I think it could be successful, but who knows.
Q: What would be your advice for people using the Internet?
Well just don’t take obvious jokes too seriously like cmon the Megaman thing on Twitter? The sonic Mickey Mouse thing? Those are obvious jokes and that’s why I don’t use Twitter
if you want fame, don’t force it. Just do stuff that is fun and don’t even care about fame in the first place. Like these people wanna be influencers or something and like why? There’s no gain to being something bigger than yourself, but a last, you can’t really control when something becomes popular and you’ll have to deal with the after affect. Sad, but true. Just don’t let the fame get to your head Yknow. Nothing is handed freely
Smoke and do drugs and buy hookers
I’d like to thank you for giving me the time to be interviewed! Hopefully Everyone and I could grow as artists and let our creativity shine through and as always have a great day!
