Club Penguin Puffle Updates!

Yesterday and today Happy77 updated us on updates for our puffles. Originally the updates would have come today, but they are taking longer than expected , so they should be here by tomorrow!! yesterday Happy asked a few questions to a programmer about the puffles 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 my 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!


Cool! Besides the stat bars coming back, PH (Puffle Handler) is coming back, also! Here's another sneak peek that will be here tomorrow:




Her job will be to help new puffle owners and tell them how to take care of their pets! Club Penguin also wants to know what name we should give PH. They've come up with everything from Paige to Penny to Polly, but Club Penguin wants to hear our ideas!

I like Penny! How about you?
