Login and Beta Team Update!

Happy77 has made a new post on the Club Penguin Community Blog! Here's what she has to say:

Greetings Penguins!

Happy77 here. Just wanted to give you a quick update. I've heard that some of you aren't able to log into Club Penguin. The team is working behind-the-scenes to fix the login issue right now. Thanks for being patient with this stuff. 

While you're waiting, I thought you might want to test out a couple new game prototypes on Beta Team!

Once you've logged into Beta Team, type list to see the file list.

We added a couple new rough concepts there: Goalie, Icebergs and Puffle Bowling. 

Make sure you let us know what you think, and ways that we could make them better.  

Waddle On! :)

Thanks for the update, Happy!

Puffle Update This Thursday!

Happy77 has made a new post on the Club Penguin Community Blog! Here's what she has to say:

Greetings Penguins!

Happy77 here. Those of you that saw Billybob's video blog may remember that he mentioned an updated Puffle experience. Guess what? It's coming this Thursday! 

I wanted to get you the inside scoop, so I asked a programmer a few questions about the new improvements:

What improvements has the team made to the puffle experience?

The biggest thing is that we've added stat bars back. Other than that we've added notifications and puffle emotes. If your puffle needs something, a little notification will pop up in-world to let you know you need to take care of your puffle. And if you go to your igloo and your puffle really needs your attention, a little icon bubble will appear over his/her head to let you know what to do. 

What's your favorite thing that's coming out this week?

Stat bars! They really help you understand how different items affect your puffles and what you need to do to keep them happy. They work way better than the original stat bars.

A few people have asked me why penguins are bigger in igloos now. Why are they bigger in igloos?

When we updated the igloo puffle art we noticed that the igloo puffles had really grown in relation to penguins. In fact, they were almost the same size as their penguin owners! It didn't look right, so we decided to make the penguins a little bigger to match the new puffle size. We also think that an igloo is a penguin's home, so it should feel a little cozier than being outside in the world. Having bigger penguins seemed to help this.

What's your favorite puffle hat? ;)

The sombrero hat, it looks pretty funny!

Hope that was helpful! I'm really excited about the new puffle stat bars. Let me know what you're most excited about in the comments below!


Pretty awesome! What do you think?

Quick Developer Update

Billybob has made a new post on the Club Penguin Community Blog! Here's what he has to say:

Hello Penguins,

Thanks for everyone's feedback on the behind the scenes video. We're working on some new exciting stuff for you this month. Here's a few of the many things we've been working on:

New items at the Gift Shop - We're just finishing up the catalog. For those of you that asked, it should be out tomorrow. Get ready for some extreme sporting action. Here's a sneak peek:

More videos - Happy77 and the team are working on some more videos for you, like a music video and another Penguins Around The World slideshow. Let us know what other videos you'd like to see in the comments!

Bug squashing - In our last developer update, we told you we're working on a fix for the orange penguin that's appearing for some of you when you log in. This should be fixed tomorrow, too. 

Top secret: for secret agents only - We're putting the finishing touches on a new System Defender level. I won't say too much about that quite yet, as the EPF likes to keep things kind of secret, and I don't want to spoil the surprise... 

Let us know if you have any questions in the comments. We're here to help!

Until then... Waddle On!

Thanks for the update, Billybob!

Greetings Penguins,

Happy 77 here. We had an idea to make a video out of all the amazing photos you've sent in. Since Rockhopper's here for the Island Adventure Party, we thought we should make one with pictures of him. Look at all the places he's been!

What do you think? :)

I'd like to make another video like this with your pictures of Gary the Gadget Guy or Herbert next. But we need your pictures to make it happen! Send in your pictures by clicking here.

Until then... Waddle On!

Beta Team Update

Billybob has made a new post on the Club Penguin Community Blog! Here's what he has to say:

Hello Penguins!

Remember when we mentioned Beta Team a few posts ago? We've added some new prototypes to the site for you game testers!

If you haven't come across the Beta testing site yet, click here... Here are some things to remember while testing:

• The only way to log onto Beta Team is by finding a hidden link on the blog...
• Only a certain number of penguins can test at the same time
• There's a 10 minute timer on the site at the moment, so you may get disconnected while playing some of the rough prototypes
• There will be bugs, because it's a test site! 

Thanks for testing... Let us know which Beta Team game has been your favorite, and what you'd like to see more of in the comments below.

Until next time...Waddle on!


Well, that explains why it kicked me out...

Happy77 Interviews a Puffle Animator

Here's what Happy77 has to say on the Club Penguin Community Blog:

Greetings Penguins!

Happy77 here. As Billybob mentioned last week, puffles are going to be doing a lot more stuff starting in March...

To get you more of the scoop, I interviewed a puffle animator and asked her a few questions:

Q: Tell me some your favorite puffle facts.

A: My favorite puffle facts, hmmmm...I love how crazy they go over puffle O's and how they'll do anything to get 'em. Even jump into a cannon! Another of my fave facts is how puffles looove to dance. If you dance they'll be dancin' right beside you!

Q: RayToolbear wanted to know: What kind of creativity do you need when you animate puffles?

A: Great question Ray Toolbear! When I'm animating puffles I love to sketch out hilarious pictures of how they would react. This helps me to pull out the funniest, off the wall expressions from each puffle. Sometimes when I'm in need of creativity I get my friends to make funny faces and I draw their expressions :D

Q: Jackcol9 asked: What new tricks will puffles be able to do? 

A: Thanks for your question Jackol9. New tricks you ask... Well, puffles will be expressing themselves more!They love to have their hair brushed into crazy styles, they'll jump for joy over treats you feed them, and let you know what they like and don't!

Sweet! Hope that answers some of your questions. Let us know what else you'd like to know about puffles in the comments. 

Until then... Waddle on!
