ShadowyIce Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 One of my more recent ones is the Alien Aisha. I got a Nerkmid thanks to a very generous Neopets player! The one I'm most proud of, though, is my SDB Packrat avvie. *snuggles it* That was a lot of work...now to get the Rubbish avatar! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it makes you feel any better: this is most likely one of the few game avatars I'll manage to get. It's one of the only games I'm reasonably good at. (But if you ever want any tips, I'd be happy to help. Usually I'd point you to the TDN game guide, but this is one of the few games where I tend to do the exact opposite of what the guide suggests.)

The only flash game avatar I have is Faerie Bubbles xD Any tip is very welcome since it is an avatar I'd like to have! I put the tips in the spoiler tag, because it's become a real wall of text. XD The extra life cheat is definitely a must. :) For some reason the guide suggests sticking to the sides, but I much prefer trying to remain somewhere in the middle of the screen, so there are more ways to escape an oncoming group of scoops. JellyNeo's guide mentions a 'teleportation trick', that might be useful, but, to be honest, I've never gotten it to work for me. (Only against me.) This is how it works (in theory): when you're stuck against the side of the screen, you can move your cursor outside of the field, and then place it somewhere else on the screen. Adee might appear there, and avoid the scoops. (Personally I just tend to move my cursor off the screen accidentally, only to get Adee stuck in the middle of an oncoming scoop.) It's good to remember that individual scoops move at different speeds. You might think you're able to avoid a few of them, only to run right into one that was moving faster than the others and took you by surprise. (This still happens to me quite a bit, but keeping it in mind does make you more aware of it and more likely to be able to avoid it.) Make sure to look at the screen from a straight angle. If Adee even brushes a scoop, she gets hit, so a slight misjudgement can easily cost you a life (or 3). This is going to sound like I'm stating the obvious, but the cherry bonus (100 points) and the fish bonus (250 points) are worth a few risks, considering they're worth so much more than scoops (5 points). You can move through the levels as flawlessly as possible; if you're not getting a certain amount of bonuses, your score isn't going to be all that high. The guide mentions a rumour that you might get better scoops after waiting for the Phantom Orange Shirt Guy to show up on the start screen, but in my experience, that's not the case. (I've had some games with hardly any bonuses when he showed up, and my high score happened in a game where he didn't show up.) Sometimes moving super fast can help you avoid getting hit by a scoop. I'm not quite sure how, but there have been a few times where I was sure I was stuck and just made a desperately quick move, only to come out unscathed. Of course, if you keep moving for too long, you'll run right into another scoop, but if you're sure you're stuck, it's worth a try. I often have a tendency to mostly move vertically/diagonally, but horizontal moves can be just as useful (also in combination with the previous point). The shield power-up can be very useful when trying to pick up bonuses, but you have to pay close attention to make sure it doesn't wear off while you're still in the path of a scoop. If you already have the shield, and then pick up a power-up to make you small, you'll be small with the shield still active. However, if you're small and pick up a shield, you'll get big again. So it's good to think about which one you prefer. The speed power-ups can be useful, but it really depends on your own preference. Slowing the scoops down can be really handy when you need a little more time to successfully move around them, but it in the later levels, it could also just mean you've got more time to watch a wall of scoops close in on you. It might be tempting to take breaks between levels, but don't. The speed builds op gradually, and if you've stopped in between levels, the speed might take you by surprise. (This might also be a reason to not use the power-up that slows the scoops down.) If you're stuck and the only way out is to get a power-up you don't want (like getting bigger, or speeding the scoops up), it's still your best option. The useful 'power-up' in this case is the bomb. It'll remove all the scoops from the field. (Keep in mind that the bomb is pretty big compared to the scoops though, which makes it easy to hit by accident, which would be a shame if there are any bonuses/extra lives on the screen, as they'll disappear too.) A lot of it is down to luck: if you hardly get any extra lives/bonuses, you're probably not going to get a high score, despite playing really well. Oh, and if you're playing on an old/slow computer, or simply have a (temporarily) bad connection, the game might stutter, which makes it pretty much impossible to play, as you'll lose lives without even seeing the scoops. (It could also glitch sometimes. I've had the game stutter, only to find myself on the 'game over' screen, while the left-hand corner showed me I still had 4 lives.) I hope this helps a little. Sorry about the wall of text. XD jellysundae, Yuiina and kayahtik 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayahtik Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 It's been a good avatar week for me, mostly thanks to the ALP, and to a little bit of luck in Spacerocked, but this is the one I'm happiest about. It kind of feels like a waste of a FFQ, but I'm trying to make the most of it. I picked up HarrieJamesPotter from the pound a couple of years ago and he's been sitting on my side account until now. I painted him Skunk, since the color gives him green eyes and a forehead stripe that might vaguely resemble a scar? I'll have to see what 'magic' I can work in the customization department...

The way I understand it, if you send a score from a mirror game, you mustn't send a score from the regular game during the same Neopian day. Have I got that right, @Angeló?
