Well, I noticed that almost all of the font in the games, and on the map has changed. Any reasons?

Ive been on Club Penguin a while, and do not appear to see the difference.

Really? Wierd. Go play sled racing. When the game starts the words that say ready, set, go are different.

I noticed it a couple of days ago. I dunno why they changed it. It doesn't really matter to me much.

Yeah, I noticed it on cart surfer and sled racing.

I am not sure how the map is changed though. o-o

He is right, most of the game's fonts have changed.


Sled Racing
Bean Counters
Cart Surfer
Pizzatron [Instructions]
Jet Pack Adventure [Levels]
Hydro Hopper


There may be more, but I can not remember the original fonts very well.

Yeah. When I was Sled Racing I noticed that. I wonder why they changed it? I am not sure about the rest of them, but the new text on Sled Racing doesn't look right for it at all.

If you notice the sticky in the corner, the text has changed. It looks a little different.

I agree Robo, it looks too old fashioned and not very fun looking. And the "GO" looks like it was colored horribly, even though I can't get a very good glimpse of it.

I guess they are cutting down on Acme Explosive font.

I agree with what Ziek said. When i was playing sled racing, the GO looked very blurry and badly colored.

The basic answer to WHY they are doing this, is because the can. From the example Z showed I like the change, it is easier to read.

I really don't expect us to like it, lol. But we will get use to it, just like we have all the other changes on CP.

I took a screen shot and I can not decide if it is mis-colored. It just looks choppy.

Also, is the Finish sign different on the Sled Racing game? I can't remember, but it looks unfamiliar.

Well its not that bad but it looks choppy and it looks like they took 2 minutes to make it.

EDIT: Well i took some pictures and your right Ziek, the finish sign is different.

If some of you are curious what some of the fonts look like, but are too lazy to get on Club Penguin, I will show you some examples.

Bean Counters (http://i34.tinypic.com/2uhyb93.png)
Hydro Hopper (http://i34.tinypic.com/n380t5.png)
Cart Surfer (http://i38.tinypic.com/9tcobd.png)

That's great, coolio! The text itself is alot smaller but it still looks fine.

I just saw all of them. (that have been spotted atleast) Though I don't like most of the new text, I do like the idea of them switching up the text. It is more original that way. Just, the new text isn't.. Club Penguinish.

I saw that a little while ago when my friend was playing.
I don't see how the "Go" in Sled Racing is badly colored though.
I just don't like the font :P

It's not really badly colored. It's just a bit choppy around the edges.

yeah,the names of saved penguins on the log in have changed font also. They no-longer use ACME Explosive.

I am a real observent person in real life. But when it comes to Club Penguin, I don't notice anything. It takes me around a half hour to notice a party is going on.

The GO sign doesn't look very good. I don't know why they do it.
