Trivia

 * Upon Sparkling Cookie's release, his skill was much better than intended to be and he could get high scores well beyond the standard amount for most players at the time - it was not uncommon for him to score 10M before the very first Big Energy Potion in Shattered Kingdom. Breaking the current maximum score at the time, he immediately gained attention. This was quickly fixed on his day of release by reducing the number of balloons during his Sparkling Party ability, to prevent him from taking over the meta of the game.
