J-J-Jump Skywire VIP Shuffle Calamari

Skwire VIP Shuffle is a quiz game, released on August 10th, 2012. It is the latest game in the Skywire series. Like Skywire V.I.P and Skywire V.I.P Extended, the keyboard is utilized to type in the name of characters who come in on the cable car.

Controls[]

  • Letter and number keys - Input the name of the character
  • PC Mouse Left Click Left mouse click - Pass level / Bring up hint (when hovered over)

Gameplay[]

Skywire VIP Shuffle's gameplay is identical to the previous Skywire VIP games. In each level, a cable car enters from the left side and drops off a character or group of characters onto the centre of the stage. The player is then given a text field in which they must correctly guess the name of the character or work the character is from. Similar to Skywire VIP - Extended, numbers are permitted, along with letters.

During the levels, the player can click on the spotlight with a question mark for a hint on the characters' identities. A "Pass" option is also present to allow players to skip the level entirely. Both options affect the amount of points the player receives for that round.

Features[]

Skywire VIP Shuffle has new Pass option, which will allow the player to pass a level without needing to guess the answer. The player is allowed only 5 passes, each pass when used giving the player 0 points when advancing to the next level. The game will also include Randomization, giving them a level that has a random, unsolved bean person.

The player's game is also saved after each level, so they can pick up where they last left off when they leave the game.

Glitches[]

  • In the "Ren & Stimpy" level, the password input area numerically indicates that the player has 1 of 9 letters put down at the start of the level, even though all sections are blank. Thus, when the player completes the level, the numerical indicator will show that 10 out of 9 characters have been put down. This is likely because between the three blank spaces and other six is an ampersand, and the game interprets this as one letter already put down.
