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.

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.

Daily Pop, Sneak Peeks

Goats and pencils.

Hey guys. GA here with great news. Poptropica has just announced that Poptropica membership is canceled forever! YAY!

Yah.. not really.

But what they did do is post some new sneak peaks in the Daily Pop. Here they are.

My Pet Goat.

One of these cuddly hircines may have a date with danger.

Black and White Dreams.

How will this black and white sketch become a colorful Poptropica scene?

*puts on cape*

UP UP AND AWAY!

Wait.. I’m not on Super Power Island….

Never-before-seen pics from the Daily Pop!

The addition of the new Daily Pop feature also brings us several never-before-seen sneak peeks for upcoming islands! Below, I’ve posted the 6 pictures currently being shown on the Daily Pop. What do you think these pictures could mean?

The River Wild
Something stalks this humid jungle.

The Sher Thing
The Poptropica Creators audition some sherpas for a mountain-climbing expedition.

Wet Your Whistle
Where there’s a saloon, there’s a town. But not necessarily vice versa.

In General
The hallmark of a good general store: If they don’t have it, you don’t need it.

Trucks!
This is where the brainstorming process begins when a new island calls for vehicles.

Riding Coach
All the world’s a stage. On one new island, the whole world might be a stagecoach.

Let us know what YOU think!

In other news, the PHB’s “Cryptids Island” info page is now up! We know the plot of this island is about a billionaire promising a big reward to whoever proves the existence of hidden creatures like Bigfoot, and now thanks to PHB reader aaronhui777600, we know that the rich guy’s name is Harold Mews! Click here for the item SWF file (#230) that proves this.

Comics, Daily Pop

News from the Daily P(r)OPhet! No… fine.

“What’s happenin’, guys! So most of you guys are saying Hogwarts is being ruled by Severus Poptropica’s down. Well, it’s back up! And with….” ~EL

The Daily Pop, a new edition to Poptropica.

Loud Shark made a video exploring this new exciting feature:

They even changed Poptropica itself by added a new Tab bar and a great new homepage.

Here is a guide to the new Tab bar.

If you click on the Daily Pop you will get to Poptropica’s newest “newspaper of sorts”.

There are three sections in the Daily Pop. There are Comics, Games, and Sneak peaks.

COMICS:

In this section you can look at comics such as one’s like Big Nate and Peanuts. But also others ones that are new to Poptropica, sure to induce your daily pop of laughter (See what I did there? ;-)).

GAMES:

These are not you normal Poptropica games, in fact, you don’t even use your poptropican to play them. Many of you are familiar with the popular online game site miniclip.com, well, all the games are from that site. Sure to induce your daily pop of.. uh. games.. (Yah, that’s getting old.)

SNEAK PEAKS:

This should come in handy a lot in the future. Check out the sneak peak pictures they have on right now! There’s a dude with an iPhone! 😀 (Yup, the best item ever. Believe it.)

“wOOt! Yeah! Go down now and read it! Also, not Poptropica-related, but you guys saw the new harry potter movie?! Me too! Whatever… Poptropica time. 5 stars to whoever thinks the comics are BIG NATE. *wink* Cio!” ~EL

NINJA VANISH!

*poof*
