Okay so you can sign up for this site then get a beta key from them.

http://contest.mmosite.com/giveaway/hello_kitty/

You get an account, then login on this page, and hit some submit button and it pops up an address XXX@hellokitty.com------XXxx, which is username -----password for the hello kitty beta.

You also have to download the client:

You knock out starfish with a broom. I can't argue with that.

Nice! I signed up for an account, and am going to download that client once I clear some space on my hd, and perhaps have fewer finals/things to do (we'll see if I can hold myself to that second one...)

Also, I have to say, what's up with all the violence in these games? Yeah, yeah, it sounds silly, but it's just not fun for me. That was one issue I had with WoW. I (just barely) tried it a while ago and there was all of this killing of innocent wolves, the unpleasantness of which was worsened by the relatively realistic graphics/imagery. I was hoping that HKO would have less of that, which I guess might be true since clubbing starfish with brooms isn't _so_ bad, and the graphics are much more cartoon-esque than WoW. But I guess we'll see.

The game makes it clear that fighting won't gain you experience so you shouldn't waste your time on needless violence.

I can't get the client to download... meh... maybe I'll try it after finals or something.

**EDIT**

Where firefox failed me, it seems internet explorer comes through. Although, at 25KB/Sec, it'll take another 10 hours to download the client assuming nothing goes wrong.

sigh

Yeah. I used the torrent option and it was faster.

I played to level 6 then accidentally deleted my character. There's no tooltip so I can't tell what buttons do. And it's click-to-move so you can't use the keyboard.
