Advertisements, Steamworks Island

Steamworks Galore!

The Steamworks Island info page is here (thanks, Popular Dragon!). I checked and it’s not on the Poptropica homepage yet, but Its on the homepage now, and Hijuyo showed it to me last night! The plot sounds interesting though:

The silence of empty streets welcomes you. Metals and machines fill the lonely halls, and a growing mystery lurks behind a shroud of steam. Can you uncover what happened to the inhabitants of this ancient island? Gear up for a steam-powered adventure you will never forget!

There’s no exact release date yet, but it’s available soon with Membership, and available to everyone later this summer!

Looks like it’s based on the Mayans but instead it’s all futuristic. In the 1400’s the Mayans suddenly abandoned their cities and no one knows why. I’m guessing they based it on that. 😀

Cats and Dogs: Revenge of Kitty Galore Ad!

There is a new ad for ages 6-11, called Cats and Dogs: Revenge of Kitty Galore. So far it’s been found on Spy Island. So basically, there’s a game inside where Kitty Galore is disguised as a cute puppy and they switch places. You have to click the disguised Kitty Galore. If you get 2 mistakes you lose. Its actually pretty easy.

As rewards, you get a Spy Helmet outfit and a Cats and Dogs hologram. The Spy Helmet’s special action is the laser looking thing on the top shoots. For the hologram, you have to press space while holding the item to make a hologram of yourself.

MASSIVE PUN AHEAD

We got another sketch from the Creators, specifically Binary Bard, that develops a “Hub” that will be located on Steamworks Island. They promise that they will clear everything up about this sketch in times to come… because right now it just looks like a potpourri of drawings that feature metal gears with attaching pipes and gizmos. Very mystifying.

One of the places you’ll visit on Steamworks Island is what we call the Hub. It’s a sight to see! A rickety tower, a massive drawbridge, and pot-bellied steam stoves powering everything. Safe to say that you’ve never seen anything like the Hub before.

Er, at least, you won’t have seen anything like it. To start with, this marvel of modern engineering just looked like this:

Yes, it’s hard to see what all the hubbub is about — yet. Just wait until you see how this one develops!

The post is called, “What’s all the Hub-bub?”.

…BWAHAHAHAHA.

Get it? HUB-BUB! Because a hubbub is an uproar? And we’re talking about HUBS?

So what, that’s all? You’re kidding me right? Really I think that’s a pretty lame costume. O_0 Not as bad as the hot dogs, but a t-shirt and sunglasses? That’s not much. ._. They could at least put a remote control or something for a handheld item. 😐

Hijuyo posting:

Again thanks to Adiboy101, we’ve uncovered another Poptropica Creator! Jennifer Wood is the Managing Editor at Poptropica, according to her LinkedIn profile. Surprisingly, there are no females on the Poptropica Creators’ Blog.

Also, we believe that the other Creator we recently uncoveredMitch Krpata – is Hades on the PCB. Why? Looking at the Poptropica Assets website, you can find that the Bolas Plant SWF for Steamworks Island was posted by [email protected] – and on the PCB, the same animation was posted by Hades. 😀

Yes, we stalk. ;D
