Yeah, I have taken a few screenshots as well, just in case. I think there are two types and they randomly pop-up around the pages related to the DD... One of them was right in the middle of my Carnival of Terror game screen -.- :D

[Crazy Neopian]

wonder what they are for? hopefully a plot that doesnt involve nc items

[Aalnius]

its a bug i think they're gonna release a new petpet to do with the problems they've been having and i think this buggy games machine is actually a mini plot for daily dare

[CrazyBiscuit]

Yeah I saw it too... Mine was perched on top of the World icon above the game... and then when I clicked to play the game it was below the game screen.

 

[Edit] I'm not going to say it's nothing to do with DD, as I really don't know, but I just clicked on Fashion Fever and it's below that too.

 

 

[2nd Edit] I decided to check out the source code. Hidden as a spoiler in case people like surprises.

 

 

It's a petpetpet! I hope it's okay to post the following!

 

Without copy and pasting the whole thing, it mentions a p3bug and links to this image:

 

 

It then goes on to say this:

 

<div style="display:none;visibility:hidden;">
<div id="gr-p3-popup" class="popup">
 <h2>Wait, what's that?</h2>
 <hr />
 <p>Taking a closer look, you see some sort of bug, and it appears to be carrying...</p>
 <div>
  <img src="" id="gr-p3-item-image" />
  <br />
  <span id="gr-p3-item-name"></span>
 </div>
 <p>How fortuitous! No sense pushing your luck, however, so before this tiny creature can wriggle away, you smartly decide to place your newfound item in your <a href='/objects.phtml?type=inventory'>inventory</a>.</p>
</div>
</div>

I think it's from at the beginning of the day with the dialogue between AAA and Abigail about the bugs in the game room. :3 TNT bein' cute and stuff.

Do you get to keep the petpet?

[linsta]

Ohh, I saw it! But I never actually took notice of it, or acknowledged actually seeing it until reading this board, and then it was like oh wait, I saw it too xD.

I figured it was related to the new game room still perhaps having bugs within it.. some sort of visual analogy. It was smack in the middle of my game when I was playing Shenkuu Tangram last night :-(

[MaraquanEyrie]

Thanks Crazy that is very interesting. It looks like we might get to keep one.

[Trig]

Yes. I've had them on Fashion Fever, Kass Basher, and the Daily Dare games. I'm not sure if it's related- but I also took a screenshot just in case it's needed for something. I tried clicking on it but nothing happened. Hm :3

[Mouseykins]

We are now able to click on the purple bugs and get prizes so whenever you see one click it for some free stuff! :)

[Jacky]

yay :D

 

Taking a closer look, you see some sort of bug, and it appears to be carrying...

Edit: It seems like you can get 10 items per day.... They kept popping up and I kept clicking, and now I have 10 items and they''re not showing up anymore...

I've gotten and clicked on one so far. Got a blumaroo sugar skull. Not even close to and angelpuss!!
