Shrink Ray Island

Shrink Shot Game!

Hi, everyone, Elmopwns here. I’m here to update everyone on the latest post! If you haven’t heard of the latest news, please read about the upcoming Shrink Ray Island here on its info page.

Yep, about getting zapped into miniature sizes, there’s usually an evil villain, too… there always is. But enough about the upcoming island. I think most of you on this blog have heard about the new island. Well to get us all frizzled and hyped up about it, the Creators are releasing a new game based off of it!

Play Shrink Shot now!

Poptropicans, member and free to play alike, can now travel the map via the blimp to play this awesome game ^^. Once arriving at the sneak peak, the main menu of the game will give you some instructions. The main objective is to literally cause as MUCH mayhem and destruction as you can by being fired while you are in miniature size!…yes….FINALLY…destruction…except on a smaller scale.

There are a number of things you can hit, this is the good part. You can get more points by hitting the point balls. But there are also many other things to hit and recieve points! You can also hit a miniature version of the blimp, a car for a ride inside, and arrow shaped balls that change your direction. These are especially helpful if you’re looking for a new area to score points in.

But that’s not all of it. I’ve taken the time to make a list of things you can hit below. And please not, most of the things you bump into will let you receive prizes:

  • Car to reach new areas
  • Crayons for a new item
  • Balloon to get a shrink ray prize!
  • Blimp for extra points
  • Soda bottle for special prize
  • Bubble gum for a new flavor to chew!
  • Point balls for points
  • Arrows to change direction.

So it appears that you can really get a lot from this game…but…of course, it takes much work if you want all of these prizes…maybe even more than an hour or so! Many of the prizes are moving or located in tricky spots. It is also worth to be mentioned that the snow globe prize is strictly a members only… awww, you take all the fun out creators :(.

The game is also designed in a system of ranks. You get a new costume for each new rank that are all unique. For getting a certain amount of points, the costume will be awarded. The costumes are mainly hats…they are:

  • hard helmet
  • bounce ball
  • propeller hat (members only)
  • spiked hard helmet (members only)
  • spiked bounce ball (members only)

As the ranks progess, they get harder and harder to achieve because of the amount of points. If you want prizes, you should stick to hitting to the objects like soda bottles or snow globes. If you want the costumes for hats, then things like the blimp and point balls for definitely for you.

And finally, have fun, everyone… may the force be with you… 😀

Below is a list of prizes you can receive. The Creators added lots of goodies this time!

  • crayons
  • snow globe (members only!)
  • new type of gum(grape)
  • soda bottle
  • shrink ray prize
  • hard helmet
  • spiked hard helmet
  • bounce helmet
  • spiked bounce helmet
  • propeller hat

Good luck, everyone!

Before I disappear, I’d like to thank anyone reading this as well as the entire community on this blog! Thanks for reading this and not questioning my sanity… I hope!

Hellos & Goodbyes

Call me Elmo…ElmoPwns

Hello everyone, I’m the new author here, Elmopwns! Yes, I know it’s a very strange name. Some of you might even be questioning my sanity as of now ;). But I’m just here to help out with the Poptropica Help Blog. Thankyou sooooooo much to Hijuyo that invited me here. This is like a dream to me! Thankyou! I cannot say that enough! I’ll be doing my part to help out with updates and such here, bringing the latest news to everyone on this beloved blog!

A little about me: I’m in middle school, fun yet busy years. I love in the West Coast of America, and like Hijuyo, I have one hundred percent faith in God(Christianity) :). I have my own blog called The Poptropica Project. But  I think the phb is BY FAR THE GREATEST ONE OUT THERE. It gained more recognition and status in three years then most blogs do in a lifetime. My parents are entreprenuers, it means they created their own companies. They created money managing sites called bundled.com. I’m mainly into classical books as of reading, but I do read some comics like Calvin and Hobbes once in awhile. As of music…I’d have to say MJ songs are what I’m into…mainly any type of pop. You can contact me at [email protected]. Just please don’t spam my inbox repeatedly. Thanks. Thanks for reading this everyone. You’re the best poptropica community in de WORLD…hopefully you haven’t questioned my sanity yet…:)

Elmopwns out!

Thanks for that, Captain Crawfish. Maybe we won’t eat you just yet. 🙂
CC: Whew! I’m still alive!
Hijuyo: Watch it! I said YET.
That’s not the only place you can get information about people who have played a part in Poptropica. The Poptropica Help Blog offers, among other cool stuff, the Poptropica Creators Database – a collection of data we know about the identities of the Poptropica Creators, the very people who work to create for us such an awesome game!
Recently a new section has been added to our Creators Database, and our thanks goes to Quiet Eagle for discovering the identity of Director D – who is known to his workmates as James Lema! Besides being the former director of Spy Island HQ, James is also the Director of Product Development at Poptropica’s Headquarters! Read more about it in our database.
CC: Bet you’ll never find MY real name!
Hijuyo: Do you WANT to be eaten?
CC: No, arrrr!
Hijuyo: Then keep a low profile, would you?
CC: Aye aye Captain.
Hijuyo: I can’t hear you.
CC: AYE AYE, CAPTAIN!
Hijuyo: Wait, I thought you were the Captain. Captain… Crawfish.
(At the word “crawfish,” crowds of hungry seals rush in to nom CC.)
CC: Aye, ’tis an omnom life for me.
Shrink Ray Island

You don’t want to misplay the Shrink Ray!

I know, I know, Red Dragon Island was only just released to the public a day before this major announcement. But to cut the suspense short, here it is, the name of the next big (or was it shrunk to small?) island…

Shrink Ray Island!

If you try visiting its island page, you may have noticed that it has changed in format! Whereas there used to just be a graphic, there are now links to other island pages, merchandise, and membership. You know what else this means? Early Poptropica Island finally has its own description! My how Poptropica’s growing up. :,D

You can also find some sneak peek images above the island description, which by the way, reads this:

A young genius has invented a ray gun that shrinks anything it touches – including you! But when the scientist and her invention go missing, you’ll have to keep the shrink ray from falling into the wrong hands, and find a way to bring yourself back to normal size. To solve a problem this big, you’ve got to think small!

Sounds interesting! What do you think of Shrink Ray Island so far? 🙂

Red Dragon Island

Red Dragon Island is here for all!

Finally, the wait is over for nonmembers! Head over to Red Dragon Island via your blimp and experience Frog Creek, Pennsylvania with Jack and Annie, then rescue them when they get lost in Ancient Japan!
