Ye Olde CN Games - The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy: The Fright Before Christmas

57:05 had a brief skip cos I accidentally clicked outside the game window and the recording briefly stopped.
Since this is endless, I thought of stopping after unlocking all weapons. Worst idea ever...I had to reach level 62, but I estimate it to be around 57 assuming you don't spend any coins on candles.
General tips in the comments below.
Good 'ol Cartoon Network games, with some amateur gameplay shown here using Flashpoint Infinity 6.0.
Game Type: Flash
Game File Source: Unknown, since it was already curated and added to Flashpoint by others
Status in Flashpoint: Already in Flashpoint (as of version 6.3)
FAQs
Q1) What is Flashpoint?
A1) It is a webgame preservation project by BlueMaxima that aims to collect as many web browser games and animations as possible before they are lost forever due to the phasing out of programs such as Shockwave Player and eventually, Flash Player.
Q2) How can I help?
A2) There are several ways, the most common being:
a. Spread the word to get more people to help contribute to the project
b. Search and curate requested games by others, which if successful, will result in the game being added to Flashpoint.
c. Testing games which have/haven’t been added to Flashpoint and report any bugs/missing files
You can visit their Discord page via the link from bluemaxima.org... if you have any questions. That website also contains other useful links, such as the Game Master List, which states the existing games in Flashpoint so far and upcoming ones.
The Game Request List states all the requested games others have put up so far. You can download the Flashpoint program itself as well if you just want to play the games too.
Game Master List: bluemaxima.org/...
Game Request List: docs.google.co...
Flashpoint Download: bluemaxima.org/...
Q3) What do you mean by “curate”?
A3) In short, it means you find a website that contains the game/animation and download the relevant files (e.g. dcr files for Shockwave games & swf files for Flash games). These will be opened with a Flashpoint program such as Flashpoint Core to test whether the game/animation works.
If they work, several files such as gameplay screenshots, text file containing the launch commands etc. are required to be placed into a ZIP file and uploaded to the relevant section of the Discord page, where they will be vetted by the experienced team there, and if successful, will be added to the newer Flashpoint version.
If you wish to help curate games, pls watch this video first in the link below, which will teach you how to curate the games you’ve found before submitting them for approval. Again, if you are still unsure, the folks at Discord will be able to help you!
Curation Guide: • Flashpoint Shockwave C...
Q4) According to the Game Master List, this game should be in Flashpoint but I can’t find it!
A4) If you’ve downloaded Flashpoint Infinity, take note that it doesn’t contain all the games in the Game Master List. For example, if the game you’re looking for is a Shockwave game: at the main screen of the program, you will see a section called “Upgrades”. Click the download button for “Other technologies”. For Flashpoint Infinity 6.1, it is about 900 MB. Once that is done, restart the program and the Shockwave games will appear.
Q5) I want to play this game, but it’s neither in Flashpoint nor the Game Master List!
A5) This means that game has not been added to Flashpoint yet. If there are games you want to be in Flashpoint, you can either wait for it to appear in later versions, or put up a request using the link in Q2. Note that to edit the Google Doc file, you need to request permission first.
Even if you have been granted editing privileges, pls check whether the game you want has already been requested before. Do not search by the specific name only. For example, if you are looking for the game “Scooby-Doo: Horror of the High Seas Episode 1 - The Ghost Pirate Attacks!”, try searching “Scooby Doo”, “Scooby-Doo”, “Ghost Pirate” etc.
This is because some game websites name them differently (e.g. Tom and Jerry: Food Fight is aka Tom and Jerry: Food Free-For-All). Curators who tested the games may also name them differently (e.g. the Scooby-Doo game mentioned above was named as “Scooby Doo Ghost Ship Episode One”).
Q6) Hey, this game isn’t from the Cartoon Network websites!
A6) Though some games came from other websites (e.g. some Scooby-Doo games originated from Warner Bros website), the cartoon characters in these games have appeared in Cartoon Network before, and are therefore included.
If you have more questions, check out Flashpoint’s FAQ page: bluemaxima.org/...

[@Bullboy_Adventures]

You mean this game was a part of a contest? Never knew that

[@henrythepotatohead]

General tips in this order: 1) Get Mandy's Marcy doll asap cos her last two weapons can't handle large mobs well 2) Work towards improving Grim's vacuum cleaner to at least the 3rd/4th level 3) Focus on upgrading the candles to the max (blue) 4) Work on getting Billy's Timeclock

[@bendonovan9244]

I don't think that the toys are evil, they're just misunderstood and lonely. I think that all they want is to have girls and boys from all over the world can enjoy, have fun, and to be played with. And I know a way to help their dreams come true. All I have to do is give them a makeover to help them look more cute and friendly. Then teach them to be cute and friendly, help Santa deliver them to girls and boys to all 197 countries and all 323 islands on Earth, then their lifelong dreams will finally come true.

[@bendonovan9244]

[@jaylenhioe2868]

More tips: 1. Take out the teddy bears, balloons, and robots first since those toys move very fast. 2. Don’t use the marbles. 3. The looper plane is effective against the balloons. 4. Only switch to grim whenever there are not many toys around. 5. Time your attacks on the jack in the boxes carefully since they are immune to attacks while in their boxes. 6. Defeat the toy that’s the closest to your position.

Billy isn’t that bad tbh. Besides the Popsicle (which is your starting weapon for him anyways), they all do their job. Chestnuts are good when you don’t have the doll yet, Magnet’s good for keeping faster enemies away from you, and the Snowglobe is basically just the Clock 0.5.

[@Bear-bf1sd]

Did you know? The Game expects you to have enough gears by the third level. Purchasing an equipment before then would cause the character to disappear.

[@carlossoto1715]

I've been playing this game nonstop many times before. Once I finally got the final tools, Grim's Ultrasuck Vortex Vacuum pack rocks, even though it doesn't literally give off a "vortex" effect; Billy's Alarm Clock was pretty much like any of his other gadgets, not the best but useful to some extent; Mandy however was at her best with the Doll, since the Fistful of Marbles was not plentiful, and the Popcorn tin is difficult to control and doesn't even wipe out that many toys in its range. There was also a recurring bug: sometimes when you make a purchase, another item may still be ready for purchase even when you have less parts to properly buy it. And upon purchasing it, you don't get any parts (you vacuum them but they don't add up) in the next level until you complete it.

[@awesomeninja9178]

the way the popcorn weaon was worded it sounded like all toys on screen would get wiped out but sadly it doesnt! the doll is like the hammer where it goes through many enimes at once instead of one at a time! billys weaons are best used for the toys on the floor (like the robots) his best weapons i use were the magnets and the snowglobe (snowglobe is a upgraded verson of the standard weapon you get) grims top graded vacumdoes help when you need money when toys are comming

[@clearcut9968]

@@awesomeninja9178 I found the magnet to be the best one just like Mandy's third item, billy and mandy have the best item at level 3. The magnet can be used nonstop on the slow toys and targeting ones near the corners helps a lot. When u do that, they go towards that toy, once that toy gets close to you, by then another slow one spawns near the top or corner, and you chuck another magnet, everything that is in a cluster close to hitting you, goes away from you and towards that slow toy in the corner, and you just rinse and repeat and they can never reach you. 2 dolls and the clusters is dead lmao

EDIT: oop @ me I just read the other comments and literally everyone else's strategies are better than mine, never knew Mandy's last two weapons were considered bad, all I focused on were Grim's vacuum and the candles

[@Carrum250]

The best weapon combo was Billy’s magnet and Mandy’s Marcy doll. Just magnetize a slow moving ground enemy and all ground enemies on that side + all flying enemies will be attached to it. Then once they get too close, destroy them all with a single Marcy doll. Billy’s magnet is the only upgrade worth going for- when used correctly, it’s basically a screenwide slowdown that groups and lasts 15-20 seconds.

Around the 30 levels or so, the Marcy Doll serve you well, but I think what you really need is something that can hit multiple targets at once all around. Not just a strait shot

[@clearcut9968]

It sounds great on paper, but trust me when I say from experience, marbles are terrible, and so is popcorn. Marcy doll is the best, I'm surprised they have it as the third when once you buy it, that's it for Mandy's side, then you just have to focus vacuum, and Billy. Sure, the marbles have spread, and it sounds great on paper, better than a line, but the line does so much more than a spread. With the marbles you start to get overwhelmed past round 30, the moment you go from marcy doll to marbles you'll be like "wow, marbles are terrible," like I said, it sounds great on paper, but in practice they're awful.
