Happy Birthday MFGG! - GeneralGuy - 07-09-2023 Happy Birthday MFGG! You turn 22 years old today. RE: Happy Birthday MFGG! - SonicKade2048 - 07-09-2023 Happy birthday MFGG!! hard to believe it's been 22 years since it all began, let alone since when i joined back in 2015. the forums may be slower than they've ever been by now, but i hope we can still keep them going! here's to the future where fan-games will continue to thrive! RE: Happy Birthday MFGG! - OssieTheOstrich - 07-09-2023 Happy Birthday to the Mario Fan Games Galaxy (formerly known as Bowser Technologies)!

May you live for a thousand years more. RE: Happy Birthday MFGG! - Izerin - 07-10-2023 Happy Birthday! A massive shoutout to the site devs and team that keep this place alive. I'm sincerely grateful. RE: Happy Birthday MFGG! - Q-Nova - 07-12-2023 Happy birthday, MFGG! You have changed so much over the years, even back when I first discovered you in 2012, but you're still going well! Cool sprites are still being made and you still get some nice games! May you live forever! RE: Happy Birthday MFGG! - Q-Nova - 07-17-2023 Oh man, I just found out something really cool! So, from some research I did, the original Donkey Kong arcade game came out in Japan in... July 9, 1981! That's right, Donkey Kong is exactly 20 years younger than MFGG! I wonder if @Thunder Dragon knew about this when he first founded MFGG or it's just a (very cool!) coincidence. Probably the latter since I'm not sure if the game's Japanese release date was known at that time (or at least not as wide-spread). It's kinda ironic, since MFGG doesn't have a whole lot of Donkey Kong fangames. I searched "donkey kong" on the main site (filtered to only show games), and I've only found four actual Donkey Kong fangames (five if you count Mario & Luigi: The Hunt for King Boo, which has Donkey Kong '94-inspired gameplay). Maybe someone will read this and make a Donkey Kong fangame, whether it's based on the arcade or Country games! (It'd be funny if that happens to be the theme of the next game jam, although MFGG doesn't have much for DK resources, especially not Country stuff.) RE: Happy Birthday MFGG! - VinnyVideo - 07-17-2023 Wow! I suspect it's entirely coincidental, but that is quite an interesting little find nonetheless!
