THE FRIGHT FRUSTRATION BEFORE CHRISTMAS



I was playing The Fright Before Christmas which is an online flash game featuring Cartoon Network's characters -- Mandy, Billy and Grim -- fighting off evil toys. Each character is equipped with a specific weapon -- i.e. Mandy with an assault weapon which she throws at the enemy; Billy with a frosticle that temporarily stops the movement of enemy; and Grim with a vacuum cleaner that sucks the gear-like remnants of the toys which would serve as money to upgrade their equipment. The evil toys include red devilish balloons, mini green robots, flying teddy bears, ugly ventriloquist puppets, dolls with a propeller heads, jacks-in-the-box, and all sorts of other playthings.




The gameplay is pretty simple. You use the mouse to aim and shoot, and the space bar to change characters. It starts off really easy, but later on it will be hard to fend off the enemies that will attack you in clusters. And sometimes, even upgrading your weapon may not necessarily mean that it would improve your play because some weapons are quite difficult to manipulate. The main objective here is to ward off the evil toys and protect those eight candles from going out. It's an addicting game, and I have played it twice before, and each game would last for more than one hour (almost two...) but I never really got to finish it.

So I played again tonight, trying to see how far I'd go and hoping I'd be able to play until the end. I already played for maybe more than 90 minutes, and was quite confident because I was doing pretty well, and... in my hurried frenzy of moving the mouse to shoot at the evil toys, I ACCIDENTALLY MOVED THE CURSOR TOO FAR AND IT SOMEHOW CLICKED ON A TOTALLY UNRELATED LINK WHICH PROMPTED THE ENTIRE PAGE TO RELOAD!!! I couldn't imagine the dismay on my face when I realized my mistake. I WAS ALREADY ON LEVEL 29!!!! I can't believe I just ended my game just like that... I feel so frustrated right now!!! *cries* T__T

I really should stay away from online flash games. They are pretty useless and take up too much of my time which should have been spent on cleaning my room or watching my DVDs.

But still... I WAS ALREADY ON LEVEL 29....!!!!! *cries* T__T

MORE FLASH GAMES!


I was challenged to an online fight by chi and ended up registering in http://mybrute.com/. XD


MyBrute is an online flash game wherein you can choose a character, and level him/her up by joining tournaments and fighting other characters online. You can play up to three games per day (I think), and as you level up, you get random weapons and skills. You get to choose your opponents, but you don't control the fights though since they are generated automatically. It's a fun game, and it's something I look forward to everyday (because I'm quite a sucker when it comes to leveling up... I want to level up really fast!!! XD)


This is my character, misakichi14. I must admit I didn't really meticulously browse through the whole set of choices
when I decided to pick her as my character. You can't personally customize the appearance of your character, but there are a lot to choose from so it's fine. You can challenge me to a fight by clicking on this link:

http://misakichi14.mybrute.com

From there I was led to another game called DINO-RPG, where you get to buy a creature called Dinoz,
and you level them up by engaging in new battles that can be generated every 1-2hours. Although not as fun as MyBrute, but still,
it's another way to waste time in front of the PC. XD


I chose a scorpion-like Dinoz from a race called Winks, and named it Banana. No particular reason for the name, I was just being random. XD There are other cute creatures and you can buy as many Dinoz as you want as long as you have the gold to pay for it.
I just don't know if they can change their appearance as they level up or finish quests.


And lastly, here's another flash game which I learned about from an ad in cinemax. This month, they are airing this movie called TRUE BLOOD which is about a vampire-slaying waitress (yah... ryt...>.<). And although I haven't seen the movie yet but it somehow reminds me of Twilight. Hehehe. Anyway, if you visit their website at:
http://cinemaxasia.com/trueblood
You can then play a three-level versus game called Fang Fighter. Unlike MyBrute, this requires very active participation. XD
I tried the game and it became quite difficult but I somehow managed to finish it, scoring about 30-something thousand points.
I thought it was a high score until I learned that other players can score even up to 60 thousand plus! *fail*


The reason why I played the game and I want to score high is because it's a contest.
By May, the people from Cinemax/HBO shall announce the top three scores and give away these awesome prizes...


WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWW!!!!

I don't think I can win though, but I really won't know until I try and try and try right? *winks*

Let's Play and Have Some FUN!!!

NEW ADDICTION: ONLINE FLASH GAMES

Yesterday (or was it the other day?), I discovered a directory of free flash games in http://www.y3.com/. Now I'm hooked. XD

This site offers various games, from Dress Up Games (which was the main reason I checked the site out), to various shooting games, and even games reminiscent of the Nintendo FamiCom console.

Dress Up Games
[click here to choose and play]


I really like Dress Up Games because they remind me of paper dolls which I used to make and play with when I was still a kid.
I can literally spend hours mixing and matching these girls with their various fashionable clothing and accessories.

These are some of my fashion creations... Hehehe...



Shooting Games

I also love playing shooting games, especially the kinds that involve shooting down the undead. XD
Recently I took this test: The Caffeine Click Test, and learned that I can click the mouse 168 times in thirty seconds,
earning me this "award"...

So because of this test, I felt confident in playing the shooting games, especially this game called, Hungry are the Dead,
which started out quite easy but the clicking ability of my finger eventually took its toll, and I ended up with this...


It's actually pretty fun, so why don't you try it yourself? XD




And there are even games there like Dance Dance Revo, King of Fighters, Naruto, and check this out...



CONTRA!!!
I used to play this game a lot with my cousins. I wasn't very good at it but I was able to play it until the end (the alien's lair...) thanks to down-down-up-up-down-up-FORTY LIVES-yay!!! **LMAO!** I bet a lot of the younger generation can't relate to what I'm talking about but suffice it to say that I still think 2D games are absolutely FTW! (and you're hearing that from someone who cannot navigate/walk properly and just totally sucks at 3D games XD).

It's really amazing how these people can make these kinds of fun flash games. I'm really very thankful for these kinds of online games and they're FREE! Who says nothing in this life is free? *winks*

And while we're talking about Flash Animations, I'd like to plug my deviantart crush *ahem* one of the most inspiring DA artists... http://johnsu.deviantart.com. He makes some of the most amazing and funny works in DA. It's just impossible not to follow his works and enjoy his wicked sense of humor. \(^o^)/
