PelPet is a brand new game just released by On at Eyezmaze, and this one is just as delightful as the others.
The object of the game is to guide your yellow PelPet down the ladders to collect coins, pearls, gems, hammers and other power-ups along the way. Other colored PelPets are working their way up the structure to thwart your advancement. Coming into contact with any other PelPet will end your game.
PelPets move according to set rules that you may influence only by altering the structure of the ladder within their path. For example, you may add or remove wooden ladder rungs simply by clicking where you want to add or remove one. Metal rungs may only be removed if you have any hammers left.
Considering all the objects to collect and to avoid, there is a lot going on in this game. The rate of descent can even be altered with the up arrow symbols (rate slows) and the down arrow symbols (rate increases). There is an invincibility symbol that basically grants your PelPet one additional "life". And an eye symbol that projects your PelPet's path down several levels ahead of you to help you see where you're headed.
While the current release is still a development version (0.1d), the play was solid and stable. I imagine there is only gameplay balancing left to be done, if that. Just like Tontie, Grow, and Vanilla have done, PelPet is yet another excellent Eyezmaze game likely to steal many hours from gamers all over the world. Click.
Fun game! Just gets kinda hard when those green guys come on screen. :S
I didn't like it even though I enjoyed Tontie, grow and vinilla. This one just didn't do it for me.
i love this game. i knew of it before i found this wonderful site! it gets hard when two of the nasty blobs come on. dont you think jay?
best wishes

The personal high score keeps getting set to the last score.
That's an error I imagine may or may not be fixed at some point in the future

Hi Jay, I'm using Firefox version 1.5 and when I click on either the screenshot or the "click" link to this game the window isn't big enough to see the right-hand part of the game, and I can't resize it. I've no idea why!
Thanks, Jimbo. It should be fixed now. Cheers!
It's amazing how many tatics and strategies can be applied in this simple flash game. You can carefully desend the ladders, or you can throw caution to the winds and fall downwards.
I wish to note that the coins do not, in fact, increase your score. Rather, your score is computed by exactly how many rungs you have gone down. The coins have a completely diffrent but far more intresting use. I won't spoil it by posting it here, but suffice it to say that you will find yourself going deeper once you do find their use.
Interestingly enough, if you change the e's in the name "PelPet" to o's, you get Pol Pot, the psychotic dictator of the Khmer Rouge.
