17 years ago, @terrycavanagh uploaded DON'T LOOK BACK to @Newgrounds.
A take on the Orpheus and Eurydice myth, it was originally sponsored by @kongregate.
The game won Daily 4th, and has over 300K+ plays on the site.
Before the internet was a thing in 1996, Newgrounds was used to be a fanzine for the console Neo Geo by the name "New Ground".
Tom Fulp published New Ground from his parents' basement in Perkasie, PA, sending sporadic issues to around 100 members of a club on Prodigy.
