Awww.

Not wild about the Pygui but I DO want a firework snorkle.

The new game is pretty similar to the Usuki game where you have to go around and pick up the correct items. I was pretty unimpressed with the game. I'll go give the lunar temple a shot in a few minutes.

[Erin]

Yeah, it's a harder-to-control version of Usuki Frenzy. They need to up the point ratio too, it's not worth playing at the current payout.

The Lunar Temple is neato. The fireworks Snorkle is adorable. Though there aren't plot prizes, I won't complain about the news today because updates to Shenkuu makes me happy.

[metalmario]

So were the guys on the Cyodrake's Gaze the only inhabitants of Shenkuu? Because there seem to be no other people/pets featured anywhere there.

Also, I think that was the first time TNT straight up told us the name of a new petpet :o

That Snorkle is so cute.

When I first clicked on the news, I had a sudden jolt of joy that we may have gotten a new color to paint our pets, but alas.

Even though we remain plot prizeless, I feel that TNT has kinda made the news semi enjoyable this week. Baby steps.

Maybe next new year. I think the adding of a new holiday was plenty, this time around.
There's a lot of stuff they can do with Lunar New Year--I hope they don't just lose interest in this idea and move on to the next thing. I'd love to see Lantern Festival-related items.

I'm digging the Gnorbus

[Siouxper]

I want a new color, the plot prizes, and some updates on older parts of the site. And the game Revel Roundup is a waste of time, just do Usuki Frenzy, it takes too long and low payout.

[Troggy7]

Yes, I can so see a new PB coming out of this

[Officer 1BDI]

The game just seems really poorly organized. I haven't been able to beat an entire round because I keep running out of time. And keep running out of time because the game keeps placing undesired objects directly in my path, so I have to go around the ENTIRE MAP to avoid them. There was even one object I needed that was on a patch of land that I could not access. >_>

[Zilary]

I really like today's news!!

Time to find myself a Pygui
