THE DEADLINE IS HERE

No time to waste, new grounds must be tread

introducing

The Macromaniacs!

One a flash game artist, and one a reformed flash game hater, this duo have flashed back from the past and travelled to the tournament for one reason, to use the crown's immense power to save Flash games everywhere! Consisting of the steam-powered Flash artist and cycling master robotJAM, and the other, the blog-running former Nitrome hater Austin Carter, this duo have united together to save their works and pasttimes, realizing that neither of them can do ANYTHING they love if Flash is taken away and, thanks to a sponsorship from Papa's line of resturants and an incident involving a time-travelling toilet, have embarked on a quest to save the relics of the past two decades from the horrors of mobile gaming. Bringing the full catalog of both of their libraries and much more, between Austin's fearsome demeanor and experimental weaponry, and robotJAM's unparalleled biking skills and ninja training, plus that classic Newgrounds flair let's hope this duo can manage to unlock the ability to save the achievements of the past, and preserve Flash games for years to come.

Appearance: The Macromaniacs stand back to back, Austin hunched down with a determined/aggresive expression, and robotJAM standing next to him, standing staight, but casually. They are a combination of Austin Carter fromNitrome Must Die!, the game celebrating the flash game company Nitrome's 100th game. RobotJam is based on the author avatar of robotJAM, an illustrator who creates Flash games along with his pal LongAnimals under the banner turboNUKE, specifically based on their in-universe counterparts from their most popular creation, CycloManiacs. The duo wears a red and orange headband respectively referencing their ninja henchmen (actually just the characters of the first game) in the extremely loose "plot" of CycloManiacs 2. Austin now wears shoes based on Pico, an important character on Newgrounds (also because drawing him barefoot detailed outside of the pixelated style would look weird) as well as an unzipped version of Phil Eggtree's hoodie so that the skull on Austin's shirt can be seen.. In addition, "his" gun now has a small logo of Cuboy's face on it, referencing it's original ownership, it also has a small keyfob dangling off it of Hot Air's face, referencing Nitrome's first ever game, but due to the gun being in motion it has a shocked expression like his apperance in Hot Air 2's art, only flipped the opposite direction. RobotJam stands at his side and wears an open trenchcoat, referencing Harry Quantum, epyonomous main character of a series he has made, loose orange pants, and over his shoulder he casually carries a giant pencil both being a reference to him being an illustrator and also Fancy Pants. On his head he wears a black version of a large sun hat, both being a reference to another game by him, Legend of the Golden Robot, but colored to resemble Cactus McCoy's. Visible under the hat, but not covering his eyes are a pair of goggles based on the ones worn by Hank from the Madness series, but with green lenses referencing Kapowski, the main character of Nitrome's The Glassworks. There are also smaller details in pins and badges on his coat, a circular one with Sarge's logo from the Papa Louie series, a small badge shaped like the elephant used in games made by jmtb02, and Alien Hominid's face.
