Well we have been busy little bees here lately. A raft of various content has been added to the site over the weekend.

Need to test out that code that you’re working on? Why not use our new HTML Tester!

Forgotten that code for a Smiley that you want to use on the Neoboards? Visit our Neoboard Smiley guide.

Starting a fresh account and need a full overview of the Maps? Check out our Treasure Maps guide.

If it has been a while and you have returned to the boards or even the trading post and it’s all a bit of gibberish? Well the Common Abbreviations guide will help you out!

Matt
October 21, 2021

The latest Neopets redesign update (beta) is live!

A various amount of content has been added, listed below:

World Maps

The below maps have all been added/re-added for HTML5. Some have had a minor design change which is a welcome additon.

Random events are back!

Finally random events are now active across all converted pages! Hooray!

Games

The below games are now live! At present you aren’t able to earn Neopoints on them, however we assume this is due to a testing phase with the wider community to address any issues before Neopoints are enabled.

As mentioned rpeviously Faerie Bubbles does havea balancing issue where colours not remaining in-game will show up to shoot, making the levels very difficult to pass. Neopets are working to address this issue ASAP

Bug Fixes

Wheels will no longer disappear when clicked on and fail to display prizes.
Wheel of Monotony no longer spins indefinitely if the player switches tabs.
Database updates and miscellaneous fixes.

Remember all those years ago the obsession of Blinkies?

Well I am happy to say we have brought them back! I have just uploaded a bunch of Blinkies to their new pague under Graphics!

You can check them out HERE

They were all the rage back in the day, and here at Sketched Neo we want to provide you with that nostalgia feeling, as well as new content that suite the Neo of today as well.

Happy Halloween!

In the spirit of Halloween, we have launched Sketched Neo’s spooky layout! You’ll be able to see the full effect on Desktop viewing on a laptop/computer. However we have done a little Halloween theme for mobile too 🙂

Only within the last 5 or so years have we started to embrace Halloween here in Australia and we love it! So I hope you enjoy this themed layout as much as I did in building it!

In other site news, over the coming days I will be adding some new content that I have been working on. One of these will be a “builder” and others are throwback graphics that you would be familiar with if you were a Neopets player in the mid 2000’s.

As always we want to hear your suggestions of the type of content that we provide! So be sure to let us know in the Comments!

Neopets Beta News!

Matt
October 15, 2021

Hi all,

It has been a while since an update on new Beta releases on Neopets. Luckily TNT has announced some updates on the latest Beta conversion in the latest Neopian Times!
Beta Update v0.4.8 has been detailed in the Editorial, launching next week it will include the below updates:

Fash Games:
Some of our favourite Flash Games are being re-relased now they have been converted to HTML5. They are:

Faerie Bubbles
Destruct-O-Match
Ultimate Bullseye (my personal favourite!)

It has been noted that Faerie Bubbles does have a know issue, that it’s diffuculty is quite hard and there will be a patch for this post launch of it being re-added to the site.

Pet Slots
Pet Slots will be relased over the Holiday Season, a date hasn’t been specifically announced but this will come closer to the time as they are still in very early development.

They have also detailed that you will indeed be able to unconvert existing pets so there will be no need to make new ones. As well as this, Pet Slots will be able to be purchased on side accounts as well.

UC Pet Customisation
There is no release date at this stage. The main focus for TNT is Pet Slots but the UC’s are still an area the team are working on.

We’re definitely going to make sure that once we revive the UC Pets, that everyone will be able to customise them as well

Extra Topics

Pay to play – TNT have outlined there is no intential for the main Neopets site be a “Pay to Play” beyond the current services of NC Mall/Items and Premium.
