Hello Kitty Online interview with a fan

Wednesday, August 19th, 2009

It is not very often — and not very easy — to transform a pop culture icon into an online game, but the developers of Hello Kitty Online, which is coming to the Philippines through exclusive publisher Level Up!, have pulled it off rather nicely, according to online gamer Tiffany Chua.

For Chua, a BS Psychology student at the University of the Philippines-Diliman, the release of an online game based on the iconic Hello Kitty is a very welcome development, particularly for fans of the Sanrio franchise like her.

Chua said that even before the release of a Hello Kitty online game, she’s always been a Sanrio fan. She shared this photo of the piece of cartolina that she received from her friend on her birthday. Chua’s friend filled it with the nickname “Tiffy” in the shape of Hello Kitty’s face.

Chua actually works for the company that’s been in charge of Sanriotown.com since 2006.

“I first heard about the game being in the works around that same year. Back then, my workmate and I were joking around about being GMs in the game,” Chua shared.

She said that when news came that HKO was accepting closed beta testers, she immediately signed up.

She admitted that she was not immediately accepted for the closed beta because so many players signed up.

After a few weeks, she said she eventually received an acceptance e-mail instructing her to download the game.

“I was ecstatic. I have been a fan of Hello Kitty since I started working on the Sanriotown.com blogs and forums,” Chua said.

So what’s it like to play Hello Kitty Online or HKO, and what are the game’s main attractions?

Chua said that unlike the other online games that are currently available, HKO has absolutely no element of violence, and so gamers will not see their beloved Hello Kitty and friends wielding swords and killing monsters.

“HKO has never been about violence. You don’t get to kill the monsters, and there are no PvPs,” Chua shared, adding that the game is instead “devoted to fostering friendship and camaraderie.”

Online gamers need to cooperate to accomplish tasks, like building a house, for example, she said.

And there’s more than just putting the house together brick by brick. The twist, Chua said, is that you need to provide food and drinks to your co-workers as the act of building the house drains their energy. You will need to manage your resources for this purpose, making the game still somewhat guild-based.

“What happened was, I planted a lot of watermelons, harvested them, and made juice. It was in this setting that I was able to meet a lot of my Sanrio friends,” Chua shared.

Chua said that contrary to what people might expect, HKO doesn’t just appeal to girls, and that many of her fellow HKO players are actually guys.

She jokingly shared that her guy friends who are playing HKO might be following the “real men wear pink” fad and that “real men play HKO.”

“I even met a guy in his 30s playing the game. He was really decent and helpful to all of us in the guild,” she said.

Chua added that she would recommend HKO to everyone “because it’s such a nice place to make friends.”

Hello Kitty Online coming to North America

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009

You can signup for the Beta here.

Hello Kitty Online is the official MMORPG based on the popular Sanrio characters. The game, currently in its beta stage, will launch in various territories throughout 2009, using a free-to-play model with optional premium upgrades. Players will explore and experience magnificent adventures in the magical and cute world of Sanrio Land as they interact with other players and more than a hundred Sanrio characters, including Hello Kitty, Badtz-Maru, Cinnamoroll, and many others.

Hello Kitty Online is one of few MMORPG titles targeting a female gaming audience. Aside from redefining traditional MMO gaming with the inclusion of integrated social media services provided by SanrioTown, Hello Kitty Online connects the virtual world with real world charity events: during past beta events, Sanrio Digital translated player activities into real donations to charities such as UNICEF. Sanrio Digital intends to continue charitable initiatives as part of North American strategy for Hello Kitty Online.

About Hello Kitty Online

Hiring for Hello Kitty Online?

Wednesday, May 20th, 2009

Highlights of 2008

Friday, January 2nd, 2009

Hello Kitty Online made the top twisted highlights in inventorspot. The original post can be seen here.

Role-playing games like World of Warcraft worry many with their ability to addict players who need to spend at least some time on things like work, school and a social life. Hello Kitty Online isn’t going to help the situation much. Master marketer Sanrio just keeps finding new ways to promote their signature character, Hello Kitty, as if being the adoration of pre-teens everywhere isn’t enough. Welcome to Kitty’s world… all your babes belong to us!

Some other random 2009 HKO commentary! Happy New Year to you all as well and hopefully the Hello Kitty MMORPG will be out soon!
