Hi Gs,

What isn’t happening in the world of Poptropica? Prepare to have your mind blown with all the new things happening in the Poptropica universe! 😀

Creators’ Blog updates

You may have noticed that two new features have been added the Creators’ Blog recently. The first is a search bar, entitled “Search the Poptropica Blog”, which they haven’t had in a long time. You can now find it right under the Poptropica Merchandise ad in the sidebar.

searchCreators

Underneath the search bar is a new tag cloud entitled “Popular Posts” — the most popular tags include “Books”, “Comics”, “Your Dream Island”, and “Lego Cuusoo”. Neat! 😀

How many more episodes this year?

That was the question that PHB viewer Slippery Raptor asked the Creators via their Twitter. They replied with an unsure answer, but something to think about.

slipperyRaptorTwitterQuestion

First of all, we don’t really know whether the Creators meant episodes or actual islands/episodic adventures. 6 – 12 islands is a bit much considering how we’re halfway through the year already.

The original question was “How many more islands will come this year since islands will be in episodes?”. He was asking how many episodic adventures would be completely released, forming an island. But, the question can be perceived to be asking how many episodes will be released. Either way, we have something puzzling.

We know for sure that there will be in total 8 episodes from the Survival and Mission Atlantis series. That said, it still doesn’t add up to 12. Could this mean that there will be more episodic adventures in the future? I’ve theorized before that there wouldn’t be any more episodic adventures after Survival and MA, but I’m starting to have doubts. Is this a good thing? Will we ever fully return to islands?

And what’s this about unexpected tech problems? That’s sort of worrying also.

Poptropican Creators Wallpaper

Remember the Poptropican Portraits Season 1 Finale Livestream, in which I drew three out of four of creators that you guys voted the highest as Poptropicans? While that is a mouthful, I still didn’t finish the last creator, Tracey West. So, I made a speed art video on my YouTube channel so you guys can get a taste of the making of her as well.

Afterwards, I put all of the creators that I had drawn together into a cool desktop wallpaper that you can view and download below. I hope you enjoyed the livestream!

You can also find more Poptropica fan art and more in the newly-released issue (#17!) of the PHB magazine, The POPCORN – just click here! 😀

The Poptropicast will be coming this Wednesday — get ready for 30 minutes of awesomeness. 😀

Daily Pop, PoptropiCon Island

Poptropi-Con: the next Island adventure?

June 26, 2014July 26, 2014 Samwow5

Hey everyone! Remember Fuzzy-B’s post about Poptropi-Con about a week ago? Well, PHB reader Slippery Raptor went hunting for more clues to the island and discovered a recent Daily Pop discreetly containing the words “P-Con”, likely short for Poptropica Convention!

Sounds like it’s for a convention (as in MineCon or VidCon), plus the ticker on the bus (top-left corner) even says “conven”. I suspect this may be a future island, and according to the bag the guy is carrying, it’ll be out later this year, 2014!

With Survival on its third episode and Atlantis’s second episode due sometime today, I’d guess that “P-Con” may not be ready until around September or October. I really think this will be a cool island!

Daily Pop, PoptropiCon Island

Cosplay at Poptropi-Con, the next frontier!

June 17, 2014July 26, 2014 Fuzzy-B

Hey everyone! Remember my last post about how the next island will probably have a city theme (possibly based on San Francisco due to the bridge and palm trees)? Well, there’s more…

Thanks to some clever connections by PHB authors and readers, we may have even more information about this new island, which appears to involve some sort of Poptropica convention where Poptropicans have taken up cosplay (costume play)! Check out these recent Daily Pops showing off some pretty good (and pretty bad) Poptropica cosplays of characters from various islands!

This may be inspired by the yearly San Diego Comic Con, which takes place in, you guessed it, San Diego. It is a giant convention for everything comics, featuring comic books, toys, movie announcements, and some legendary cosplay.

For those unaware, cosplay (short for costume play) is when a fan dresses up as their favorite character. Of course, this could be really good, or really, really bad…

So we have cosplay and a city setting probably in southern California — what could this mean? As predicted by others, I am going to say this will concern some sort of (San Francisco?) Poptropica Convention. But that doesn’t have a good ring to it! How about the Poptropi-Con? Much better!

And here we have a Daily Pop sneak peek of the actual convention center which is sporting some nice “con” signs. This image serves as final confirmation that the new island is indeed some sort of Poptropica Convention (Poptropi-Con?).

So what do you think? Are you excited for a new Comic-Con based island? What do you think the plot could be about? Do you think Poptropi-Con has a good ring to it? Share your ideas in the comments below!

Daily Pop, Survival Island

Fishing Suit now in the Store, and some new city settings!

June 13, 2014June 14, 2014 Fuzzy-B

Hey everyone, after a (not so short) hiatus, I finally have finals, tests, projects, etc. out of the way and can be active in the community again!

As previewed by HP in a post earlier this week (along with many other awesome things – so check it out if you haven’t), the new Fishing Suit has been (officially) released for Survival – Episode 2. It is currently free in the Store for everyone, so make sure to go claim yours! (The Fishing Suit can also be found on a tree trunk in Episode 2.)

As always, there have been some interesting new Daily Pops. Sometimes these Daily Pops can give away a lot about upcoming islands. They helped us figure out that “Mall” (Night Watch), “Movie” (Back Lot), “Monster” (Monster Carnival), and “Winter” (Survival) islands were all being prepared for release, and now it appears that the next island will have a city theme to it!

As you can see, the Portable Toilets, Pizza Pocket Truck, and vending machines, along with all the background imagery gives away that the creators are working on a new city themed project! What city, you may ask? I predict it will be San Francisco, or a city based on San Francisco. The second image gives it all away. In the background, behind the pizza truck we see a bay with a bridge over it. This bridge might just be San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge!

So what do you think? Are you excited for a new San Francisco-based island? What do you think the plot could be about? Share your ideas in the usual place below!

New Poptropica comic: starring Oliver & Jorge

May 5, 2014May 6, 2014 HPuterpop

Hi Gs,

Check it out – a new Poptropica comic strip (simply called Poptropica) has debuted, involving the story of two young boys called Oliver and Jorge sucked into a monkey-man-inhabited dimension. It sure looks cool, and there’ll be new strips every day!

Oh, and check out the PHB’s new Comics page, where all the original Poptropica comics are being collected into a database, from Super Hot Dog Boy to unreleased strips of Poptropica!

You can read unreleased comic strips by changing the URL of the comic file. Visit that link and change 2-2 to 2-3 and beyond! 😀 After 2-7, change it to 3-1, etc. 😉 Also, Funbrain has even more strips that haven’t been uploaded to Poptropica’s servers yet.

A hearty amount of it has been released already, and you can keep up to date on the saga via the Daily Pop or Creators’ Blog. The nice thing about the strips is that they look quite authentic to the comic strip style – I’m curious to know who is illustrating them. You can get a taste of the comics below, or read the full thing here.
