From the sky comes a hurtling black speck falling... falling... falling where? Right towards a petpets back. You must help guide Harry the mootix towards the petpet so that it may have a home for the next little while... until its scratched away at least. But thats not the only thing. You need to get to the right area on the petpet's back to set up camp and wait for the other mootix. Good luck! 

Harry the Mootix is on a mission to parachute down to the target while moving through rings. Use the spacebar to launch Harry and then guide him to the target by using the left and right arrow keys.

When the game first loads you must choose between playing Missions or Drops. A Mission requires you to complete multiple jumps and a Drop is just a single jump. However, Drop levels must be unlocked by completing Mission levels.

When playing in the Mission mode, there are four different levels of difficulty. The first time you play this game, you must start on the Easy level and progressively unlock each new level. The levels vary in the amount of Missions required to complete them.

                         Easy - 3 Missions             Medium - 4 Missions             Hard - 5 Missions            Insane - Unknown

Rather than just moving Harry around, a skill required to successfully achieve a high score is barrel rolling. In order to do a barrel roll quickly press the left or right arrow key twice. Barrel rolling will cause Harry to move to the chosen direction much faster than just moving normally. Use this skill when rings are spaced far apart, Harry will not need to barrel roll in beginner levels. Harry has three extra lives, or restarts for each mission. When the restart is clicked, the mission starts with the same jump Harry was on, rather than at the beginning of the mission.

In each mission there will be a different objective shown. It will include the amount of rings Harry must go through successfully and the type of target that he will need to land on. This objective is the minimum requirement that must be completed in order to move on to the next mission. 

Mission	Difficulties	Total Rings	Ring Objective
Babaa	All	5	Easy - 3 / Medium - 4 / Hard - 4 / Insane - Unknown
Warf	All	10	Easy - 5 / Medium - 8 / Hard - 9 / Insane - Unknown
Kadoatie	All	15	Easy - 10 / Medium - 13 / Hard - 14 / Insane - Unknown
White Gruslen	Medium, Hard & Insane	20	Medium - 16 / Hard - 19 / Insane - Unknown
Dogelfox	Hard & Insane	25	Hard - 24 / Insane - Unknown
Puppyblew	Insane	Unknown	Insane - Unknown
Snorkel	Insane	Unknown	Insane - Unknown

The rings appear as soon as the game begins so Harry must be ready for them. Each ring that Harry goes through is worth two points. Going directly through the center of a ring will result in 2 bonus points. When a ring is passed through it turns yellow.

As Harry falls down through all of the rings and closer to the ground, the targets will become visible. The type of targets shown will vary depending on the level and difficulty. In later levels the targets move around and become smaller. Harry needs to land on the target in order to complete the mission and score points. Try to get him to land as close to the bullseye as possible, because this will award more points. Watch for his shadow to appear to help guide him. Getting a bullseye on the larger targets will result in a x5 bonus. Landing on a small target will result in a x7 bonus.

Actually landing on the target can be difficult, especially for beginners. When he is close enough to see the targets, begin to position Harry above the target that he is going to land on. Try to do this before Harry’s parachute opens, because after it opens it will become much more difficult to control his movement. The parachute can easily cause you to lose control of Harry, but with practice you will learn how to stay in control and guide him to the target of your choice.

Sucessfully completing a Mission will unlock one of the three Single Drop Modes. The Easy Babaa Mission level unlocks the Easy Babaa Single Drop mode, and so on. Though you have endless restarts in Single Drop mode. when you have successfully guided Harry through all of the rings and landed on a target, that target is no longer available for Harry to land on. The total number of rings in each Single Drop is the same as those for Missions.

Playing in Single Drop Mode is good for practicing and also has varying levels of difficulty. Playing in this mode will also earn you some NP, but it will not be as much because it is only for one drop. It’s a much better idea to play in Mission mode if you want to earn a lot of NP. The game does claim that a prize will be awarded for landing on every target in the Single Drop mode but it is unconfirmed.

There are many different cheats for this game. To use the cheats you must be on the page that shows what mission you’re going to do in either Mission Drop or Single Drop Mode.

Press the up and down arrow keys to change the icon image. Press the left and right arrow keys to move to the next icon or move back to the previous icon. The icons will appear in the right hand corner of the screen. There are four different icons: Babaa, Spyder, Mootix, and Target. There are three columns for icons to be placed in. The icons must be in the correct order to work.

Tips to Win

• Practice going through the center of rings to ensure getting as many points as possible.
• Remember to pay special attention to the objective for each level.
• Beginner players should always try to land on the largest target possible, and then when your accuracy increases you can try to land on the smaller targets.
• Practice using the different cheats and try to find the one that is most helpful to you.
• Always barrel roll when rings are placed far apart.
• Do not get nervous or anxious when landing. It’s important to keep Harry steady and controlled during the landing so stay calm.

Extras
Once in a level, click the restart button until you have no more restarts and let Harry drop. When Harry reaches the target, he will defy gravity and float back up. As Harry rises and the target gets smaller, you will see that he is actually in a room in a Neohome. If you wait and click the last restart just as Harry is about to land, he will rise even more slowly.

Mootix Drop is a World Challenge game.  While this game is challenging enough to deserve an avatar, there is none. However submitting a score of 2180 or higher should be enough to earn a trophy.
