16th March

NEW GAME - The Emperor's Princess dreams of becoming a Shenkuu Warrior, do you?

There are three new Battledome practice weapons available at the Wonderous Weaponry Shop.

There is a new Mystery Pic competition. The answer to the last one was Word of the Day Header. 279 people guessed correctly, earning them 7,169 NP each.

If you love the new Shenkuu Warrior game you might want this new Background.

This mysterious new Dandan has been discovered and is available at Fanciful Fauna.

This week's Neohome Spotlight award goes to julseey, proud owner of 501629 Guild Street, Neopia Central.

Warrior or not, these Buddy Icons are quite fun!

This week's Petpet Spotlight award goes to kanara the Kazeriu.

Oh dear... what is going on in our latest Caption Contest?

Daily Dare t-shirts are now available for purchase at Zazzle.

Okay, I made this topic to say basically one thing.

I WANT this petpet. SO. SO. SOOOOOO badly. I love Red Pandas, even more than the Great Pandas (though they're extremely cute too, don't get me wrong.) The red used on it is a little bright, but the rest of the Dandan's so cute I don't care. I want one. I neeeeeeeed one.

Is it just me, or is the new game completely horrible? It really moves too fast.

A red panda?

Oh god I described it to a friend as a red raccoon. I still want one.

It's not just you. My highest score is 57. The top score is about 10,000. I don't understand how in the heck anyone managed that.

I was really excited when I first saw the petpet (I am also a lover of the red panda) but the more I look at it, the less thrilled I am. It looks really flat, like the tail is all wrong.

The new game needs some major tweaking; either more ledges, or the gnorbu needs to move slower.

But I do like the gnorbu's design. Never thought I'd see a pretty gnorbu (mind you, I rather like gnorbus and think they are cute, just not pretty).

I swear I've seen the Dandan before.... I think Neonewsnow once had it (or something similar) as an "exclusive" petpet desgin for their site form one of the Neoartists.

<------
What is that lizardy thing?

Is it this?

I have one that I got from Tarla. I really like it because it is supposed to be all rare and mysterious. It only appears to people who believe in it or something. But it isn't really rare anymore.
I like to imagine that it moves by just kind of streaking around very fast and then disappearing in a puff of smoke.

Same here! Red pandas are my favourite animal, so ... yeah... I was really excited too. But compared to the other Shenkuu petpets, I think it could have been a bit more characterful... or better shaded or something! He looks slightly dim-witted, poor lil guy!

Dandan says: Durrrrr!

The Gnorbu princess is really pretty, though

Edit: Oh! And it's cute how the panda-style petpet is a "sandan", and this petpet is the "dandan"

I just tried the new game but I am horrible at it. It sort of reminds me of spider man swinging around.

She's a gnorbu. She's just extremely anthro and lacks all the chub. Notice the tiny tail in the background image and lack of ear tufts.

i was really excited when I saw the new game last night (and my measly score of 30 was enough to earn me my top gamer avvie, wooo!) but after playing it I felt really... blurgh.

I don't get it, at all, how anyone can get a respectable score on it by anything but sheer luck is beyond me.

I haven't been on in a really long time, but I need to say I want that PETPET!!!

yeah, I thought he looked a bit dopey... it's the eyes. Plus the coloring is flat (compared to the Juma or Sandan for example)

on Gnorbu warrior-princess-whatever she is! She HAS got to start responding faster! It's either that or someone slow those ledges down!!! And just HOW do they score it?? I made it to the snowy partys before I fell and have ZERO... *sulks*

Ugh @ that game.
Its awful when your high score reaches a 37 and then drops back down to a 0, then back to a 15, and you never die!
