BTS Overview & Theory: Escape From Pelican Rock Island

December 10, 2015December 10, 2015 Spotted Dragon

(EFPR Island is coming out today for members! Check out BT’s post below for details!)

efpr bts

Hey everyone, and welcome back to our BTS Overview & Theory series! This time, we’ll be covering Escape From Pelican Rock Island, written by the PHB team and organized by myself, SD. Be sure to check out our previous BTS posts, our most recent being for Timmy Failure.

WARNING: SPOILERS BELOW (but that’s what you want, isn’t it?)

Overview of evidence

As always, we will start out with the basics and lead up to the scenes, dialog, etc. Be sure to visit the Escape From Pelican Rock Tour Page for more info!

Pelican Rock is the toughest prison ever built. And after you’re framed for a crime you didn’t commit, it’s your new home! Use your wits to devise an escape plan, and your nerve to pull it off. But getting out is just the beginning — because the real criminal is still out there!

There is a printable poster available and members get a free costume in the store. Plus, there is currently a sneak preview and prizes if you visit the island!

Daily Pop Sneak Peeks

Judging from the art style and subjects of the following sneak peeks, we know that they are for Pelican Rock. 😉

Scenes & Dialog

Now we can get into the detailed stuff! Below are the image layers and dialog for each location on the island.

MainStreet:

Hill:

Tower:

Final Theory

Based on all this evidence and what we’ve seen in the preview for the island, we can predict the following for our quest. There is a robbery, but the thief gets away and your Poptropican is framed for the crime. You’re put behind bars and you have to use the items that you can get a hold of to escape. Once out, you have to make a plan to prove your innocence. Eventually the real thief shows up, the Booted Bandit, and the cops take him away. And for all your trouble, you get an island medallion!

Remember that Escape From Pelican Rock Island is going to be out for members today! 😀

Heyyo Poptropicans, it’s Ultimate iPad Expert here with another post! Sure, maybe I posted yesterday, but whatever. Right, guys?

screen_shot_2015_12_01_at_7_06_53_pm

Yeh, okay. You can’t tell me what to do Picard! Anyways…

Not too long ago, the Creators announced their Island Hopper Sweepstakes. Along with the overall prizes (which you can check out by clicking the link above), the Creators are giving away 1 month memberships to five lucky Poptropicans. Today, the Creators released the first week’s winners. Here they are: congrats to Comical Pear, Magic Burger, Striped Whale, Tough Flame, and White Grape!

The Creators have added their memberships, and mentioned that they’d get to enjoy Escape from Pelican Rock Island (which is coming out in December for members)!

If you’re a winner this week, congrats! But otherwise, you’ll have more chances, because the Creators are going to be giving away 5 memberships once a week throughout December. Plus, you could also have a chance to win one of the main prizes – see this post for all the details!

Segway

Let’s move on to a few little gems from Twitter!

The Creators tweeted out some concept art from the Creators’ files. One, seen below, is of characters from Reality TV:

And check out this concept art of the Nokken from Twisted Thicket:

Both of these are really cool to see. The progression of each character is really great and I enjoy getting a look into the Creators’ process. 😀

So, that about wraps it up for this post! Are you excited to see each weeks’ winners for the Island Hopper Sweepstakes? What do you think about this concept art from the Creators? Comment below.

Escape from Pelican Rock Island, Photo Booth, Reality TV Island

Photo Booth Mugshots now a Reality

November 18, 2015June 6, 2021 Slanted Fish

Attention all Poptropican prisoners –

This is not a drill. (It’s actually a hammer! 🔨 )

If you are a prisoner of Pelican Rock, promptly make your way to the new Photo Booth at the Main Street preview of Escape From Pelican Rock Island, which comes with new prison-themed templates, characters, backgrounds, and props. Try not to smile when your mugshot is being taken.

You will meet a host of other characters at our high-tech photo station, including the Booted Bandit, Big Tuna, Florian Fosbury, Patches, Ratchet, Tex Brannigan, Warden Sharp, and Escapee. Who are these people and why do they exist as both male and female? Stop asking so many questions, prisoner!

(You may have noticed in the EFPR Island preview that the NPCs’ genders are the same as your character’s, and it looks like this may continue in the rest of the island as well considering the Photo Booth characters. Check out this Daily Pop from last month for more!)

sneakpeek_10-09-15 — Lineup: That’s him, third from the left.

Poptropica also tweeted out another batch of early sketches of Reality TV Island characters. Here’s both the new one and the one they shared earlier (click to enlarge images):

Speaking of Reality TV Island, congratulations to Quick Dragon for being the first resident of the small Pacific Island nation of Vanuatu to place on the map (#1,817 worldwide), earning a shoutout on the Creators’ Blog! Beat the island today and you too can have a spot on the map.
