Hi Players!

Thank you for welcoming yet another new year with us. Thank you for the support especially through the later half of last year when things were a little rough for us, we've truly appreciated your kind words and patience especially when we've had to keep delaying content. Hopefully this year things go a little more smoothly for us. (boy we have so much on adventure to catch up on.)


Next up is an update on the long awaited match 3 game. After the change of hands in coders for this, we've significantly changed up the layout so this will appear more cleanly on your mobile browsers as well. We've introduced 3 difficulties in which you'll be collecting requested cookies in random orders and numbers depend on difficulty with a limited amount of moves.

We are in the midst of adding a time attack mode, so that you can choose whichever mode suits your fancy for your daily plays.

We do believe that this game does have more potential in the long run to perhaps add a map/levels in maybe a version 2 or something like that. What are your thoughts on this? Would this interest you guys?

That said, once we finish up with the time attack mode implementation and final testing, the game will be ready for launch, so we're looking at sometime in Feb. The rewards will be PC at launch, since we're still in the middle of setting up the arcade shop, eventually the newer games and this one will convert over to arcade coins for you to exchange for arcade items or convert to PC/food etc.



As with the recent release of the Vinteralgk, we decided to introduce it originally as a Christmas Legendary pet, but due to the time strain on players trying to get it, we switched it up into being our first Seasonal Pet. Going forward (this will not affect existing pixpets), we plan to introduce more seasonal pets that come out for a few months during the year alongside regular pixpets that are year round or Holiday specific. We've already got some new designs in the pipeline and are quite excited for their seasonal release eventually when it's finally their time.




As Feb is the 'season of love', we decided to kick it off with a new contest (sorry that it's taken awhile to launch another.) The theme is:

Design Furniture Set OR Wall & Flooring Set inspired by Love &/or Friendship

You do not need to be good at art, just have fun expressing yourself and your idea.
You do not need to pixelate your designs as this is merely conceptual.

We are aware that players were having problems registering via gmail, that has been addressed.

We have also encountered some old inactive accounts suddenly becoming bot/spammers. Please make sure not to share your email/username & passwords. If you do so, please do so at your own risk. We are implementing a measure whereby we will be able to forcibly reset and request for the user to change up their password via your email in the event your account is suspected of being affected by such malicious activity so that you can recover your account should the need arise. This is currently in testing and will be pushed to live once we make sure it works properly since we take your account security very seriously.

Thank you for sitting through this long start of the year post. Thank you for your continued support :D more to come soon!
