A guide to: Micro Olympics

Here's a guide to the game Micro Olympics by microsheep. A game in which its goal is to acquire the maximum distance possible with your aircraft by modifying its speed and height with several objects such as soda thrusts or skis. You can also call a frog called Freaky, buy extra gun powder and decorating your plane.


Guide to the game
Basics
Best speed: In order to get a lot of distance and points, one of the main keys is the speed. Always aim for a speed close to where you see the yellow dot in the image at the left.
Soda thrust: This allows you to fly higher into the sky once you use it.
Skis: These allow you to bounce off the water once you're close to it.
Call Freaky: If you call him, it works the same way as the Skis, but it's better.
Gun powder: Buying this will allow you to travel more distance in every try.
Decoration: This will give your plane more distance automatically, 250 or 500 metres more, depends if you buy this once or twice.

Important tips
Soda thrust: Use all your Soda thrusts just after being shot by the cannon in every level.
What to buy after each level: This is the order in which you must buy them 'til you run out of money:

Those 2 tips are very important, and by doing them both, you'll get both badges, the Flight Apprentice Badge (Easy - 5 ₧) and the Aerial Master Badge (Hard - 30 ₧).

Order in which you must use your bought objects
This order is the same as the order saying what to buy, excluding the items that can't be used.

Guess Who's Back

I've started to make a comeback in my role at KCG. Hokage and I are in the midst of some big improvements. We are trying to bring in some revenue to make this site sparkle. I will now be working on that first and foremost. I hope to get a lot of sponsors among other things to bring in some cash flow. This means that I am adding google Adsense back on to the page. So go ahead and click away at those pretty little pictures if you enjoy KCG. Just like Kongregate is making most of its money off of their ads we are trying to as well. So please guys try to help us out if you enjoy our articles. It really will bump up the integrity of this website.

Updates: New Features, Reaching Milestones

2009.6.22

Users:

- A new feature (Which wasn't an initial option in the poll) has been added. This would be the Comments Section- a nice place for you all to share your thoughts and opinions about KCG. Article requests will be accepted here. Like anywhere else on the site, negative or obscene feedback is unacceptable.

- Hokage's Picks section has been changed for the ease of updating it. Now it names the developer along with the name of the game rather than the game with a short (useless) description.

- KCG's Links section removed since most of the links that were listed were no longer valid.

- Sponsorships section added- as mentioned in previous post. We're still looking for people to sponsor us, or at least advertise on KCG.

- Thank you all for following us and reading our articles- because you guys helped us reach the following milestones:
►100 Guides on KCG (Achieved on June 6th)
►Considered a poppular site to sponsor/Got sponsored! (Achieved on June 17th)
►100,000 hits since February 2009 (Achieved on June 22nd)

I apologize for not adding the "Game of the Day" section yet. I've been incredibly busy, and will be going on vacation for a week on Wednesday. If I'm going to add the section, I want it to serve its purpose- not be a barely updated useless section.

An Interview With awalters

By request, I have done an interview with awalters. Enjoy!

What is the origin of your username?:
I know how I went about creating it, but I can’t recall why I decided to use it. Years ago I could never come up with usernames when I needed them to sign up for sites. So basically I just started throwing random letters together to see what I could come up with. For some reason I picked the one I did and have used it on just about every site I have joined since then.

What is your favorite chatroom?:
Feed the Ducks

Do you have a favorite game on Kongregate?:
In my case it depends on the mood I’m in and what genre I want to play that day. Remnants of Skystone is my most played game right now, but I can’t really pick an overall favorite in general.

Who is your favorite mod/admin?:
Ducklette has to get my vote for the countless times that she has helped me when I needed a second opinion or a situation cleared up.

Favorite thing to do when you’re not on Kong?:
There is a time that I’m not on Kong? Normally playing other games, reading, or doing homework.

Bruce Lee vs. Bruce Willis. Who wins?:
I must admit that I have seen very few movies with either one in them, andto be more fair it isn’t fair for Mr. Willis whom I can’t recall ever seeing a movie with him in it. That being the case I have to go with Bruce Lee even though it isn’t a fair contest.

Who is your favorite normal user?:
I try not to pick favorites, well more I’m not supposed to. Obviously I fail to do that all the time, but I don’t think I should answer the question since I know they would take advantage of it and start to think I wouldn’t touch them if they acted up (obviously not the case).

PC or Mac?:
PC although that might just be due to my lack of experience with Macs.

What do you think the funniest named badge is?:
I normally find badge names more cleaver than truly funny, but I did actually laugh at both “Gotta Kill ’Em All!” and “Being the Very Best.” As many people on kong know I am a Pokemon fan so references to it are always welcome.

Mrs. Butterworth or Aunt Jemima?:
Aunt Jemima…Mrs. Butterworth just seems a bit too eager to tell people how tasty she is, which is far freakier than most of the stuff Jemima does

Do you have a favorite sport?:
I am not that big on sports sadly, I know how many sports are played, but to watch them is something I have never really been enticed to do, that being the case I really don’t have a favorite sport.

Finally, the most important question of all, what came first; the chicken or the egg?:
When you say egg I assume you mean a chicken egg. In such a case there are several different schools of thought. In the first the egg can not exist without the chicken having existed first, this is a fairly strong theory however it rests on there being a chicken that did not require an egg to come into existence.

Yet another group argues that the egg evolved from something else and thus the egg comes first as the result of a different species. This is slightly more plausible and the one I tend to go with.

A third theory would be that since the egg cannot exist without the chicken and that the chicken cannot exist without the egg and as such the chicken can not exist, however then you are getting into a more philosophical area which isn’t the point of the question.

So I would argue the egg is more likely to have came first.
