Happy weekend, Poptropicans! Pop in for a fun video, fan art highlights, and more from the community!
In this Video of the Week from the Pop Creators’ Blog, Alana returns to Poptropica after 8 years and plays through Arabian Nights, Ep. 1: How Bazaar. Watch as she rediscovers her old account, calls out an old man for being completely oblivious to theft happening before his eyes, and gets spooked by a handful of the forty thieves:
It’s kind of funny how the Creators’ Blog post starts with “Did you know there are people who have been playing Poptropica for YEARS!?” — more evidence that they’re expecting, and catering to, new players over longtime ones. Speaking of the official blog, did you know there was no Video of the Week last week? 🤔
What does appear to be a regular occurrence, though, are fan art spotlights on the Poptropica Creators’ Instagram story! Check out the latest features from this week:

In other Poptropica news, the formidable Avatar Studio Glitch (ASG) is still going strong, even after the death of Flash. The PHB continues to update its ASG collection, so if you like strange and hard-to-find costumes, keep checking back there for new ones! Here are just a few we’ve added recently, thanks to Silver Horse and Dangerous Icicle:

That’s all for this post. Be sure to catch up on the other fun things happening in the posts below, from guest writers on the official Pop blog to what Astro-Knights Island may look like IRL!
Keep on popping, Poptropicans. ✌️

Cool! I especially like the Clareta ASG 😉
But how can you use the ASG when you can’t use the avatar studio? Can you still use the avatar studio?
Nope, but I think it has to do with the ASG machine.
You can use the ASG Machine to perform the ASG, or MAP to select individual parts. More details on the ASG page. 🙂
Avatar Studio doesn’t work anymore because it ran on Flash.
Is there an alternative for Avatar Studio? I want to check out some old usernames’ avatars.
That sky pirates concept needs to be an actual island though. That drawing right there is actually pretty sick.
cool asgs

Love the fan art spotlights 🥰 they are so talented!
This may be a little off-topica, but are there any speedruns on Poptropica because it would be really cool to see how optimized it can be.
the ASG’s look stunning
