After her famous heist of the Ice Cream Factory, Adee the Chia finally had all she'd ever wanted, free to eat as much ice cream she could handle. It was the good life... or so it seemed. Now, between memories of the factory's security system and eating way too much dairy before bed, she's plagued with terrible recurring nightmares... dreaming of being trapped in... The Ice Cream Machine!


The ice cream is vengeful!

How to Play

Ice Cream Machine is played by moving Adee around the game area with either your mouse cursor or finger/stylus, depending on the device you're playing on. Your goal in each level is to avoid the scoops of ice cream launched from the cones at the top of the screen, which will continue until a certain number have crossed to the bottom.

Each level features a different flavor of ice cream, and if Adee is hit by a scoop of this flavor, you'll lose one life. While you can collect extra lives throughout the course of the game, once you run out of lives the game will end.


Ice cream that can't be eaten... what a nightmare!

While scoops of a given level's flavor of ice cream will hurt you, there are also power-up scoops that have various effects when Adee touches them. The effects of the power-ups that alter Adee's size and the speed of the scoops will be strengthened by collecting the same type multiple times in a row, and will be replaced by collecting a power-up of a different type. If you fail to collect a power-up scoop, it will count as a normal scoop when it crosses the bottom of the screen.

Fish +250 points
TPOSG +1000 points

Levels

The game consists of thirteen levels, with the speed and number of scoops you must dodge increasing as you progress. Below you can find the minimum number of scoops and the points you'll earn in each level; bear in mind that the cones will stop launching scoops once this number has been reached, but the level will continue until all scoops have left the screen.

Levels
Level Flavour Scoops Points
1 Strawberry 25 125
2 Vanilla 50 250
3 Chocolate 75 375
4 Mint 100 500
5 Blueberry 125 625
6 Vanilla Chocolate Chip 150 750
7 Strawberry Vanilla Chocolate 175 875
8 Peach 200 1000
9 Vanilla Chocolate Swirl 225 1125
10 Double Chocolate 250 1250
11 Tigersquash 275 1375
12 Rainbowberry 300 1500
13 Garlicky Bratwurst 325 1625

Scoring

Every scoop of ice cream that reaches the bottom of the screen is worth 5 points, for a minimum of 11,375 points should you reach the end of the game. As this is quite a bit shy of the 14,500 points necessary for the avatar, you will need to collect as many point-granting power-ups as possible, as well as hope for a good number of scoops worth bonus points. These scoops, bearing strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate toppings, are randomly mixed into the rest being launched at you, and are worth 10 points upon crossing the bottom of the screen.

Bonus Scoops
Scoop Effect
Caramel Topping +10 points
Strawberry Topping +10 points
Chocolate Topping +10 points

Strategy

A method for earning points quickly in the early game is to collect as many speed increasing power-ups as possible. This power-up increases both the speed at which the scoops move, as well as the rate at which they're being fired, meaning that if you end a level with a speed increase in effect you'll have more scoops on-screen when the number necessary to end the level is reached.

Generally, you should try to keep Adee in the bottom center of the screen, as this maximizes your opportunities to dodge. While it may be tempting to collect a power-up to decrease the speed of oncoming scoops, be careful when doing so; if timed poorly, this can lead to the formation of an inpenetrable wall of ice cream. Situations like this (or just wanting to clear space so that you can reposition Adee) are good times to use the strawberry bomb power-up, but as it eliminates all on-screen scoops without giving any points, it should typically be avoided.

Quick Tips

  • Collecting a shield will reset your size to normal
  • Increasing scoop speed can lead to higher scores
  • Remain in the bottom center of the screen as much as possible
  • The effects of size and speed power-ups stack when collected in succession
  • Only collect strawberry bomb power-ups if necessary or feeling overwhelmed
  • There is never an advantage to collecting size increase power-ups

Changes From Flash Version

There are number of substantial changes from the Flash version. It is unknown which of these are bugs, oversights, or intentional changes.

  • Ice cream scoops shoot from the top of the screen instead of the bottom. This is presumably to make it easier to play the game with a touchscreen on handheld devices, where your fingers may otherwise get in the way.
  • Adee now floats a small distance above your cursor instead of under it. This was also likely done to support handheld mobile play, to prevent your finger from obscuring Adee.
  • The cheat code strawberryvanillachocolate is no longer available. In the Flash version, this code could be used once per game to gain an extra life.
  • Music only plays on the title page. Regardless of your music setting, it will not play during gameplay.
  • The instruction page easter egg was removed. In the Flash version of the game, clicking on the decorative extra life power-up scoop on the instructions page would cause it to turn into a scoop with a cherry on top. In the updated version, the extra life scoop is not shown on the instructions page, replaced by a regular strawberry scoop.
  • The Ollie easter egg was removed. Ollie made one of his signature special appearances in the Flash version, but did not make it over to the HTML5 version.
  • The game is not included on your personal list of games played. No matter what score you submit, it will not appear on your personal high scores.
  • There is no 1,000 Neopoint limit. None of the HTML5 games have the 1,000 NP cap per score submission that all Flash games have; you can earn over 1,000 NPs per score submission if your score is high enough.
  • There is no high score table or trophies. Trophies are only awarded for scores submitted with the Flash version.
