I actually had to play the game 3 times -- the first time, I mistyped "doughnutfruit" and ran out of time during the second typing -- I was at 151. The second time, I just got a crummy game -- almost all yellow doughnutfruits and very few letters, so a score of only 218. But the third time, I got a 418 -- and that was with only one (super) bonus besides the cheat. I don't even bother sending my score for this game unless I get above a 300. I mean, AAA's score is only worth 630 NP -- you'd think the "game master" could get 1000 NP in every game!

(Sorry for those who don't play this game often and are having trouble getting the score -- I know it annoyed me yesterday when everyone said KB is way too easy because they already have the bat unlocked, but this game does get really easy with a bit of practice -- I use the keyboard instead of the mouse, and move the hassees around constantly, trying to catch 2-3 doughnutfruits whenever I can, and always getting the high-point ones. Definitely aim to get the high-point ones second or third if possible to maximize points.)

If anyone's trying to beat AAA and is running out of time then here is one good tip
1. try the code "doughnutfruit" it completely refills your time, also try to do it when you are almost out of time

don't forget to practice, practice, practice.

Well, I'm finally caught up with all of the games so far. I've beaten AAA 3 times and Abigail 13. I really like some of the prizes this year, very creative :)

And Abigail's prize for today does look quite odd, and 3-D as Daze said...I wonder if we'll see more of this in the future.

I kinda like the look of Abigail's prize- I'll be trawling the wiz for it after a few days, once the price deflates & settles.
Although I hope they don't make everything look like that; just a few items now and then, for variety.

Blahhhh 207 is the best I can get. My previous high score was 266 so I know it's doable for me at least... Just need to get the high value fruits. I hate when I'm in mid jump and one comes flying across the screen so that both miss it. xP

All these built in cheats... no wonder I'm making so many new personal records. Thanks for telling them in this thread :)

Am I the only person who doesn't mind getting all these easy challenges? *has a busy schedule*

Nope. I only beat AAA on 3 challenges - the games I'm good at and are easy to play (Edna's Shadow, Crisis Courier, and Whack-A-Kass-Basher [I like the old name better]). I have no problem with only beating him that many times. I got the avatar last time... and the trophy from the last challenge. I'm fine with not playing the games all day this time around.

*Beats his head against a wall.* I've beaten AAA 13 times, and Abigail 2 times.. but I've yet to beat AAA on Destruct-o Match II.

I swear, this game is impossible for me. I can only get up to like, 2,000.

It's torturous.

Just beat KM2 with 720...thanks to all those who posted level-by-level score guides.

As a note for those struggling with Hasee Bounce: Type in "doughnutfrui," without the T, at the start of the level. Hit the T just as time is about to run out.

I also count green-and-above douhgnutfruits, because the key to a high score really is the bonus fruits.

Here's how I do it:
I want to catch at least 6, preferably 8, green-and-above doughnutfruits before I use the code (so, what I consider to be "level 1."

I want to catch an equivalent number in "level 2."

Blues that have been multiplied do not count. Neither do letter fruits. Both are too common to keep track of.

Because of how the limit of fruits-per-screen gets lower and lower as the game goes on (You'll only ever see a maximum of 4 fruits per screen to start, 1 at the most difficult), you won't score as many points in level 2 as level 1 - generally, it's only half as many. So, if you haven't gotten your 6 green-and-above doughnutfruits, or if you have less than, say, 150 points, then just restart and try again.

Good luck!

Whew, another easy one for me. 16/16 and now halfway through!

Congrats on KM2, shapu!!! :hug:

I'm pretty sure that doesn't work if you use the keyboard - just as an FYI.

Byakuya - I'm definitely not minding the easier challenges. Things in the last few days have been kinda crazy for me, so the lack of games I've been practicing about is not hurting things. If they'd made it above 300, it would've been harder - but on a side note, it did go up from last year's score of 200. Okay, not much, but still.

Hasee bounce was surprisingly easy for me today. Usually I have a lot of trouble with that game. And I got a score of exactly 700 on KMII. So close... Ah well, there's always next game. :)

Way to go, Shapu! And butterflygirl, I got two scores of 699, but finally got it. You're so close, I bet you get it in the next day or two.

Pickles is right -- pretyping the code in Hassee Bounce doesn't work if you're using the keyboard controls (I just double-checked, and they didn't change it in the revamp).

Has anyone gotten the tree recently in Kass-Basher? I've played for hours yesterday and today, but haven't gotten the tree yet. I did get a score of 448 without it. There really seems to be no rhyme or reason to that game -- I hit the kass at the same spot, with the same windspeed, and do the same little bouncy thing, but I get anywhere between 380 and 448 (even with 5 bounces). I've replaced kikos with kasses in terms of Neopets things I'd like to strangle...

I've frequently heard of but never seen this tree everyone's talking about (nor know what it is) and I've played 3x per day since like June. My high score is 1174, maybe that's not enough?

Anyway, I just beat AAA on Hasee Bounce. Um, I'd just like to say to anyone struggling and using the mouse: quit it! The keyboard is SO much easier. I just got 303 on my first try with the keyboard. Although I did get a fish doughnutfruit with a yellow (50x2=100) and the orange-shirt programmer guy (worth 42 apparently) so that certainly helped... but it was a lot easier to move during your jump with the arrow keys. :)

I think last year when I was trying to beat AAA's score, I ended up getting the tree once, but was so surprised I didn't hit it right. When the page loads, very rarely he'll be holding a tree instead of the stick (or the bread or bat, I suppose). The tree lets you knock the stuffing out of that kass -- making it very easy to unlock the bat. I'm pretty sure at some point last year, I unlocked the bat the normal way, but I don't remember it taking this long. At this rate, I've got better odds of finding the tree than unlocking it the hard way... assuming the tree still occasionally occurs.
