World 2-42: DuckLife2: World Champion

DuckLife2: World Champion
http://www.kongregate.com/games/sims5000/ducklife2-world-champion

This is the second installation in the duck training sim series by sims5000. Basically, your goal is to make the meanest, baddest, most leanest duck the world ever did see (and of course, pit him against other mean ducks). You can accomplish this goal by working on four different aspects of your duck: Climbing, Flying, Swimming, and Running. To improve each skill, you are given a minigame to play, and depending on your own performance during the minigame, your duck will gain points towards that skill. You can also collect coins inside the minigames, which you can use to improve the energy of your duck (to ensure that he has enough stamina to last through the entire race). Once you feel your duck is strong enough, you can start racing!

Each race takes place in one of five countries, starting with Scotland. You begin with a cliff jumping race, which will test your swimming skill, and must be completed (along with the secondary rock climbing race) before attempting the area final. For completing each race, you are awarded cash and things like paint which is used to alter the colour of your duck. After completing an area race (which combines all of the elements you've been working to improve), you are awarded money, paint, and even hats to decorate your duck with.

If you're looking for a way to feel better about doing nothing today, I highly recommend DuckLife2: World Champion. As an added bonus, you can turn off the music and listen to this while you play:
