Is there a way to make more than just a few pixcoins a day? I haven't been able to reach 300 pixcoins since I joined and I know there has to be some way if everything is a little pricey. I worry the arcade game is probably the way, but I'm on mobile and can't play it. I've been interacting and consistently logging on, just not getting much of anything out of it.

Hey @LittlePuppy, welcome to the game!

Most players agree that the best way to make PC when starting out is to sell pumpkin products and evobar ingredients, since everyone needs those. You can find a list of evobar ingredients in the cooking stations area. Each cooking station has its own expandable recipe list at the bottom of the page. Your usershop or the auction house are good places to sell things, and the way to use them is by going to your item inventory and clicking either "Add to Market" or "Add to Usershop".

This thread also has some tips for making money:

If you want to know the prices of specific items, feel free to ask here or PM me!

Edit: As Kroj said, there's also sellback features for both items and eggs. Eggs tend to sell for more. And yeah, the Sunobra Chase arcade game only awards food, I'm afraid!

90% of my money comes from selling pumpkins and plant products. I also try to put my pixpets in signatures/profiles of other social media to get referrals.
