Surveying Poptropica

Yes, that's right, they want to know what YOU want!

Captian Crawfish IX: Awesome Right?

EL: Quiet. Hijuyo already ate five of your cousins, Green Boa ate one of them, and I swallowed all the rest. So shut your piehole. How do keep living? I don’t know, but SHUT UP.

CC IX: 😦

EL: Well, now that that’s over with, I can tell you guys this.

CC IX: You won American Idol?!

EL: No, I-

CC IX: Won Canadian Idol.

EL: DIE! D:<

CC IX: I’m SorryI’m SorryI’m SorryI’m SorryI’m SorryI’m SorryI’m SorryI’m SorryI’m SorryI’m SorryI’m SorryI’m SorryI’m SorryI’m SorryI’m SorryI’m SorryI’m Sorry!

EL: Well, I took the new Poptropica survey on transition street. The one with the minor ads. I love the gallbladder – oh, um it’s a survey asking you about the Daily Pop. Go take it! And on a final note…

CC IX: *wind whistles through his eye sockets*

EL: What? I had to do it! >:D

Daily Pop, Store

Little firebreathing dragons!

Scroll down or click here for Green Boa’s notice.

There’s a new gold card item in the Poptropica Store, and it’s part of the Followers series! This one’s called Dragons, and it features three tiny, cute little dragon followers which blow out substances from their noses every so often, which is pretty neat.

The yellow one blows small clouds with smilie faces, the blue one seems to spit a trail of blue little circles, and the red one breathes fire. Which one do you like? 😀

In other news:

  • If you haven’t already, please welcome RavenClawGurl, the PHB’s newest author of awesomeness! :]
  • Our improved Cryptids Island guide, written by Super Thunder, is not only helpful with its instructions, but also has pictures too! Check it out!
  • There’s a whole bunch of sneak peeks on the Daily Pop the PHB hasn’t mentioned yet, and which I’m not bothered to take pictures of here, but do remember to check them out on Poptropica. They’re called ‘Sizing Chart – We use visual aids to communicate the scale of new objects and scenes,’ ‘Wireframed – Before the art is finished, we use outlines to visualize our scenes,’ ‘Go Go Robot – Just some of the ideas that would eventually become the steam robot costume in the Poptropica Store,’ ‘Publick House – This place on Cryptids Island could use some customers. Come right in!’, and ‘Newfangled Technology – The wonders of the twentieth century!’
  • Read Escape From The North Pole, the holiday special episode from our sponsor, the comedy known as Party With Hobos, which is irrelevant to partying with hobos because it’s too awesome like that. ;D
  • Thanks to Metsfan21 for providing the Christmas header we had up from December 24th to 26th.

Cryptids Island, Daily Pop, Sneak Peeks

Camping out for cryptids

Cryptids Island should be out tomorrow, and many Poptropican members might be so excited that they’ll want to camp out in front of their computer screens in wait of these legendary cryptids! And to get the hype going, more sneak peeks have been posted on the Daily Pop!

Camping is in Tents
That looks like a dangerous place to camp.

Three of a Kind
Three approaches to the design of a new character.

It Is About Time
You could say this clock towers above the rest.

Cryptids are coming!
Your perilous journey will take you to such terrifying locations as… a rest stop on the New Jersey Turnpike!

Drawn to Life
A side-by-side view of how a character changes from sketch to Poptropican.

WHO’S EXCITED FOR CRYPTIDS ISLAND!

Deck the seas with cheerful creatures

‘Tis the season to be jolly… and Poptropica’s doing that by decking the seas with cheer and monsters! 😛

Have a ball this holiday season!

Sounds pretty cheesy, but it’s just a catchy slogan to advertise the new FREE costume in the Poptropica Store: the Holiday Ball, a giant ornament that covers one’s whole body! So spread some holiday spirit by decking the halls in the color of your choice (red, green, or blue).

Daily Pop Peeks

Catch up with all these new sneak peeks [and their descriptions], on the Daily Pop now!

F for Fake
This attack never happened, but is the giant squid still out there?

Name That Animal
If we drew it right, it shouldn’t be that hard to guess!

Deep Dark Woods
One of those would make a nice Christmas tree. Dare you to go chop it down.

Off-Street Parking
Just put that truck anywhere.

Monster Mash
Not everything we design ends up in Poptropica. These monster costumes never made it past the concept stage.

Inner Peace
This looks like a nice, quiet place. At least, until you show up.

Up on the Housetop
Something tells us that wasn’t old Saint Nick.

Sea Power
The stormy seas of Skullduggery Island began as a simple sketch.

Works of Dart
Concept sketches for some surly pub patrons.
