Speaking of Sunday, thatย will also be the last day of Poptropica’s 8th Birthday celebration. If you haven’t received the 8th birthday prize or 200 credits for finishing Early Poptropica (first time only), well now’s the time to grab ’em!

Next, Captain Crawfish has uploaded a new Realms video featuring Smart Bones’ labyrinthโ€” and it left us a challenge! Captain Crawfish finished the maze in 6 minutes and 45 secondsโ€”can you beat his time? Leave your results below

(Warning: Beware of shouting, ranting, groaning, words of wisdom and Crawfish-seizures! :P)

Speaking of the Creators, Poptropica shared some of their spookyย Photo Booth creations on Twitter! Want to share yours? Tweet to Poptropica and they’ll retweet! ๐Ÿ™‚

And that’s all of the updates! Have you checked outย HP’s PoptropiComic or UiPE’s fan art contest entries? Don’t forget to leave a comment! ๐Ÿ™‚

Timmy Tuesday, Spooky Snapshots

Hey everyone! Just a reminder thatย Timmy Failure Island is out for everyoneย tomorrow! Yeah that’s right…a Tuesday! (Find out why in this PHB post.)

For everyone getting ready to start the great pants chase, we have a guide made by our very own Brave Tomato that can help you through the parts you get stuck on!

In other news, there have been some changes on Home Island! In front of the Shop,ย there used to be a guy with an eyepatch standing there – but now there’s a different NPC, the gender of whomย depends on your character. The outfit of the NPC also varies, but it looks pretty snazzy!

Finally, last but not least, there has been some changes to the Photo Booth (plus the NPC in front has been replaced with a witch)!ย The Creatorsย just added some frightful new backgrounds,ย characters, and props! Now youย can make Poptropica Halloween-themed photos using backgrounds and stickers with all your favorite Halloween characters.

Anyway, that’s it guys! Have a fun time with all the new updates and send us some of your photos! We want to see your amazing creations!

Prison Low, Monster High

Hey Poptropicans!

Something new is on the horizon โ€“ and it’s more than just aย caption stolen from the Daily Pop. In addition to the prison-themed island sneak peeks we’ve looked at before, September wraps up with even more glimpses of what’s to come, including what appears to be something like Alcatraz Islandย (a prison on an island) in San Francisco (noting the bridge), further confirming BT’s theoryย about the setting of this upcoming island. See our Daily Pop Archive for more sneak peeks!

No news yet on when the island is releasing, but stay updated with the PHB as we find out!

Next, there’s a new Monster High ad on Main Streets such as Early Poptropica! This one contains two videos. The left video gives you Catty’s Show Power (press spacebar to watch a few Monster High characters rocking out on a stage), and the video on the right awards a large-wingedย Luna Costume.

Or, if you’re a guy, you might find a Playmation Avengers ad instead. Watch the video to get your own Repulsor Blaster! (Thanks to Hyper Gamer for the tip and picture.)

Home Island, Photo Booth

Poptropica’s very own Photo Booth!

Hey guys, Spotted Dragon here! Long time no post! I’ll hold off on the whole sorry, school, work, life, etc. speech. Let’s just get right to it. ๐Ÿ˜›

Well, the Creators just added a cool new feature to the game, specifically on Home Island. What is this great new feature you ask? The title of this post says it all: a photo booth! Upon visiting the island, you can find the photo booth next to the Shop. Thanks to Ultimate iPad Expert for the all the pictures!

PhotoBooth1

Once inside, you will be greeted by a panel of buttons on the left of your screen. They are all labeled in the picture below.

PhotoBooth2

The best part about the photo booth is that you can change the entire scene all on your own, including the characters, props, backgrounds, and more! You can either start from scratch, or edit a pre-made template.

And don’t worry… the photo booth is available for everyone! So what are you waiting for? Go to Poptropica now to try it out for yourself. It’s right on Main Street of Home Island (also called Hub or Tutorial Island).

Photo Booth - Mixtape

Yeah, this is me showing off my mixtape (which is on fire btw). Other than my amazing photo, check out other creations from some of the other PHB authors below!

I don’t know about you guys, but I really liked this update. However it’s still new, so I hope more tools get added, such as being able to add your friends to the picture, an undo button (although the trash button works well for deleting props), a way to add unique text, etc.

So what do you think about the photo booth?ย Share your thoughts (and pics!) below!
