I rather like the game. At first I sucked....but after some practice, I got up to level 3

Haha.. i'm a little mad at myself for this game. I kept dying and I had NO idea why.. and my scores were barely above 100.
I found out why though.. heh.. I kept hitting those grey areas they have every once and awhile that you're supposed to avoid.

Gaah.. could I be any sillier?

It's definitely a game of practice. It takes time to get used to the game and be able to predict how the character will move. It also takes some time to distinguish the obstacles from the regular background scenery. But once you do that, you can get the hang of it, and it's actually quite fun.

Kind of off topic but not sure if it warranted a new thread. On the game overview page the WC icon is lit... You click on it and it says, "The challenge for that world isn't ready yet." Does that mean we can expect them to add more worlds to the WC or has someone at Neopets goofed? I wouldn't be surprised if it's been discussed before. I doubt I stumbled upon anything. I just want to satisfy my curiousity. Oh and Crisis Courier is considered an Altador game if anyone wanted to know.

Yeah I think it's just the fact that it's an altador game, and there aren't any altador map pieces drawn yet. Same with Shenkuu which is annoying...

Ahhh ok. Yeah I saw it was the same with Shenkuu. Have they released new maps in the past? Or when WC started has it been the same since it started? I wasn't around then so I have no idea.

There's already a thread for this in the Gaming Strategies and Help forum (where these sorts of threads are supposed to go).

I'm going to merge the two together now to keep the discussion in one place

If by that you mean, have the same worlds been in the WC since its beginning, then as far as I know, yes. I haven't seen any new maps released for another world yet. Though to be honest, I haven't played in WCs lately; I'm still bitter about them taking down the one game I was good at AND changing the rules enough to suck all the fun out of it for me. I might get back into it eventually, if I ever get more time.

I'm practicing this game for another reason, though. I'm wondering if it might be a part of the upcoming Altador Cup, as an alternative to the Yooyuball game. (Well, okay, more like I'm hoping it's given as an alternative.) I managed to get as far as Level 3 the other day, and while I still don't like the controls, I'm kind of getting used to them anyway.

And speaking of the game itself, question: Why bother having Mutant status at all when you're not in that status long enough for it to do any good? The Faerie doesn't bother me so much, since so far it's been close enough to a large cluster of moneybags in open spaces that those can be grabbed quickly. But Mutant? Never been of any use. By the time I can safely line it up to hit the Minthewhatzits, the Yooyu's back to normal. And if I try NOT to line it up, but just get in the general area, I invariably hit a building anyway and die. *grump*

So again, I ask, what's the point?

Wow, I just love the music in this game. Totally reminds me of HOMM III.
Anyway, I like the idea and the originality. It is, like you said, a bit laggy, but doesn't affect the gameplay that much (not for me at least).

This game has been added to my faves list. It's easy and it doesn't take all that much time to get 1000 nps.

I do hate that the Faerie and Mutant forms last for just seconds though. I agree that because of that fact, Mutant is pretty useless. Faerie is okay because it's usually next to a large cluster of money bags.
