Cryptids Island

Is it a coincedence?

Green Boa: We interrupt ‘Cooking with Dr Hare’ for a breaking news report on Channel P.

(News music plays)

Green Boa: Our first report, we’re going out of virtuality, into reality. As Cryptids island is right in the middle of it’s member only use, things in the real world start showing signs of cryptids. We go over to our correspondent, Captain Pricklepants Crawfish, to explain it all. Mr Fishy!

Captain Crawfish X: Thanks, Greenie. My report,

Thursday, January 6, 2011

Did you hear the news? A couple weeks ago, a man in Kentucky saw a strange creature running around his farm at night. He shot and killed it, and discovered a bizarre, hairless creature with a pointed snout that walked on four legs.

Well, some people thought this might have been proof of the chupacabra — not that the man had had any bloodless goats turn up on his farm recently.

Unfortunately for monster hunters, a wildlife biologist examined the body and determined that the creature was probably a raccoon suffering from a disease that had caused all its hair to fall out. Oh well. The chupacabra may still be hiding somewhere out there!

CAPTAIN CRAWFISH

Green Boa: Shame, racoons going to such desperate measures to become famous, and the Chupacabra is really shy. Anyway, join us for more news at 7:30, with The Ultimate Sleeping Pill: Shark Reveals all!, Scrambled Jersy Devil eggs, Early Poptropicans feeling ‘Outdated’, and much much more! Until then, it’s ta-ta from me. Ta-ta! Say ta-ta Mr Fishy!
(Silence…)
Green Boa: Uh, Fred, where was Mr Fishy when he gave the report?
Camera Man: Uh, Puerto Rico.
Green Boa: Uh-oh…
(In Puerto Rico…)
Captain Crawfish: Back off, dog face!
Chupacabra: Grrrrrrr!
Captain Crawfish: I’m not a goat! I’m not a chicken! I AM A FISH! ON THE NEWS THEY CALL ME MR FISHY!!!
(A dark figure rises frome the water nearby)
Nessie: Did someone say fish?!
Captain Crawfish: 😮 *faints*
Bonus Items, Daily Pop Sneak Peeks

Kite Flight

On Cryptids Island, if you didn’t already know, you can fly kites from the kite store! There’s lots of them to choose from, such as this panda one:

"Pandas do make me smile."

For non-members, Cryptids Island is apparently opening on Tuesday, January 18. Which isn’t exactly fair because they had originally released the date as January 17. Sneaky Creators. 😐

In other news, there are some new Daily Pop sneak peeks you might want to take a look at the next time you log in:

  • Buzz On – Will this scavenging bird make an appearance in Poptropica?
  • Horse Face – A horse learns to express itself.
  • Take That to the Bank – This scene could use the color of money – and some other shades, too.
  • Yippie for Hippies – No, there’s no Hippie Island planned. We’re always trying out new costume ideas.
  • The (Steam) Works – Most of these ideas never made it into Steamworks Island, but they helped us figure out how we wanted it to look.
  • What a Drag – Gold cards go through the same creative process as islands. Here’s an early look at something that may end up in the Store.
  • Ready, Yeti? – An early sketch of Bigfoot for Cryptids Island. We decided to make him scarier!
  • The Missing Link – Will these cavemen concept sketches ever find a home on Poptropica?

And don’t forget to take Poptropica’s quick survey when you log in! Giving your opinions may help the Creators understand what YOU want from the game!

goodbye 2010. hello 2011.

Although not exactly Poptropica-related, we here at the Poptropica Help Blog would like to celebrate the fact that it’s 2011 (or will be, anyway, if you happen to live in a different time zone) – and the PHB is still here after all this time to bring you Poptropica goodness! 😀

~Two Zero One One~

So, happy new year from the entire PHB team! Hope 2010 was a great year for you, but 2011 might just be better! ;D

Kids Talk

GA loves makin' logos. xD

 

Hey guys, Coderkid will probably want to post his own post about this later, but for the sake of getting the news out I decided to post it myself.

This post is to inform you all that the PHF (Poptropica Help Forum) is changing, I’m not sure whether the entire PHF is being converted or if it is going to be a new site. But The PHF is being transformed into a sort of general kids talk forum instead of just Poptropica.

For more information please visit one of the links below.
