Backyard Skater

[synthetique]

Yea, I know it's a cheesy lil sponser game - but I can't stop playing it. It's the quickest 3k on Neopets as far as I know. Any of you out there like this game? I've been cutting scores up to 8,000 on it and was wondering if that was a decent score compared to other people on the site.

All I do in that game is the one where you hold the up button until it makes a circle. I just keep doing that... 50 points for that trick. I make 3k everyday. Gotta love sponsor games...

i hold the up button too, but i also just rapidly press left, right, and the space bar for even more points. if i end up doing the "special" move 3 times in the air in turn, then thats about 800 points! (+ the backflip thats why). i can end up with 4000 points in one round that way

but of course, i dont care about my high score, and just send score at 2k (1k np)

How does one go about getting the code to input into that game? I notice it's the same sponsor as Backyard Baseball, but I can't seem to find the secret spot to click for the code link...

For a sponsored game, it is great, lot of NP earning, more than ultimate bullseye! AND it is refreshingly addictive. Playing even once all 3 scores are sent! Though it's annoying when you egt a higher score and you've already sent all 3 scores for the days....

I'm I the only one who cannot get that game to work? My character moves so slowly...how do you go forward? I couldn't even make it to the lip of the half-pipe.

[Fool Hi]

if you read the instructions, you would know that you would hold the down button to speed up

[Mistress Morbid]

I have been though...I hold it down and it does nothing. Blah. Maybe my computer's having issues. =P

Mistress: Try to make sure that the character is facing the side of the pipe you're skating towards and see if that helps

For me, to do just the special move twice while doing a backflip takes a calculated effort - it's hard to believe that someone "just pressing buttons" randomly would be able to pull off three of them.

[Fool Hi]

i know, but even if i dont do the special move 3x in a row, i would still get about 500 points at the least if i do 3 moves. still great

I tried to do two in the air, but I choked and hit the ground before I could do the second >.<

I can't find it in the news or by searching for it on the Games thing, but thanks to my History, I've found the link for anyone else who can't find it.

EDIT: Whaaaa? 10NP per 100pts scored?! Wasn't it more a couple of days ago?

I know.....59 NP for a score of 599?

It seems to have been removed...but if you click this arrow next to the adress bar it shows you the latest URLs you've been to on the computer. I acually typed in "http://www.neopets.com/games/backyard" first, and then it shows you URLs that end that, that the computer's been too. IE is great

[Fool Hi]

what are you talking about, i still see it in the games room...

theyre reducing the np you get from nearly all the sponser games. this, the monsters goo thing, and lots of other games that they already took down
