Hi, welcome to my ice cream machine game guide. This guide contains the basic info, hints and tips to make you a master! (well, maybe not, but good enough to get you the avi!) To get the avatar for this game you need 15,000 points, you get 10nps for every 100 game points. The basic aim of the game is to move your curser to dodge the ice cream scoops. The higher the level the more scoops appear and the faster they become.

Ok, first things first, hit play and when the level one screen comes up type in strawberryvanillachocolate, this will get you an extra life so you start off with 4.

Then, if you've got time, wait for a few minutes (between 3 and 5) and on the screen (I call it the 'inbetween screen') the ice-cream covered chia is replaced by Ollie (TPOSG) - the neopets game guy. Once this happens there is a chance that you will get a scoop with his head on which gets you 1000 points. This is very useful, however it does not always happen and it can randomly appear at any time on any level.
Right, so you're ready to start. So basically you've got to dodge the scoops! It really is that easy when you get the hang of it. But there are some special scoops you need to keep your eye on.......

1) The green plus scoop - speeds things up (many see this as a disadvantange, sometimes it can be useful to try and get as many scoops out of the way as quickly as possible!)
2) The red scoop - this slows things down (it depends on your style whether this is a good thing or not)
3) The blue scoop - makes you bigger (do not get this! noooo! stay away!)
4) The purple scoop - makes you smaller (these are a definate advantage, get as many as possible)
5) The pink heart scoop - extra lives (again, get as many as possible)
6) The grey shield scoop - protects you for 3 seconds (good, but remember to keep moving)
7) The red bomb scoop - clears all the scoops on the screen (useful, but dont get if before getting other good scoops on the screen)
8) The cherry bonus scoop - gets you 100 extra points
9)The fish bonus scoop - gets you 250 bonus points

Level 1 - Strawberry
Level 2 - Vanilla
Level 3 - Chocolate
Level 4 - Mint
Level 5 - Blueberry
Level 6 - Vanilla Chocolate Chip
Level 7 - Strawberry Vanilla Chocolate
Level 8 - Peach
Level 9 - Vanilla Chocolate Swirl
Level 10 - Double Chocolate
Level 11 - Tigersquash
Level 12 - Rainbowberry
Level 13 - Garlicy Bratwurst
Get as many heart scoops, cherry scoops and fish scoops as possible but not at the expense of losing a life, if you cant get it, dont try!
If you get a shield scoop try to keep moving so you're still in the flow when it goes. The cherry bomb scoops are always useful but remember not to get them if there are lives and point scoops on the screen!
Try and find what speed suits you and use the red and green scoops accordingly. For example, I get the green ones on the lower levels to speed things up, and the red ones on the higher levels to slow things down.
Beware! If you right click during play, the game will end no matter how many lives you have left!
I find it easiest to see the 'paths' if I relax my eyes and see the whole screen, rather than concentrating on individual scoops or adee. The more stressed out you get the harder it becomes so try not to take it too seriously, and practice! These tips and hints not only get me 3k a day, but they got me the avatar and the gold trophy. Be warned, you will be humming the song and seeing ice-cream scoops everytime you close your eyes! Good luck!
