Dare to be devious?

Smockers

The Creators have continued to live up to their promise of updating us with new costumes this whole summer. Today, they added 2 new costumes! The Dare Devil (not to be confused with the “Little Demon”) and the Biker. From the looks of it, the Dare Devil is about to be used as a human cannonball, and the biker is your stereotypical vision comprised of crazy hats and clothes from da hood. =D

^ Dare Devil ^ ^Biker^
^Dare Devil^ ^Biker^

Pretty spiffy hat on that male biker. 😀 But… dare I say (pun intended)? Bikers aren’t complete without bikes you can ride around Poptropica. Make it happen, Creators! As a side note, the space bar action for the Dare Devil gives you quite an egotistical smirk, and with arms on hips, your visor/helmet thingy goes down.

In honor of the all-new Biker suit, Gazek prepared us this awesome picture:

Since we are on the topic of costumes, it might be of mention that you can now organize your costumes in your inventory alphabetically or by date. The costumes are also split in pages for convenience. What do you think? Was this change for the better or just makes it even more trouble when you are trying to find something fast?

What do you think?
What do you think?

Also, we have hit 1,900,000 hits. WOOT! =D Many thanks to everybody for viewing our site! So close to the grand 2 million… maybe in time for my  1-year anniversary at the PHB? =O Keep yourself busy by reading up on Codien’s used-to-be-secret  site, awesome new Cool Stuff, and the September issue of PHB’s monthly Poptropican’s 911! Don’t forget to comment your thoughts if you have any! 😉

Final note: I would also like to let all of you know that everybody from the PHB staff would like to wish anybody whose family was affected by the tragic attacks of September 11, 2001 only happiness, thoughts, and prosperity. We all send our condolences to you out there. God bless.

The Secret Site of Codien!

Codien

Hijuyo: Don’t forget to check out issue #4 of the Poptropican’s 911 here, and view the poll results here! And now a message from the awesome Codien–

Well howdy folks!

It has been a while since i’ve posted. Mostly because i have been busy with exams and such. Oh did i mention it was was my 16th birthday awhile ago. 😀 Yes i do realise I’m older then all of you. MUHAHAHAHA!

Seeing that there’s nothing new in Poptropica yet, i will post something unrelated. Not about some random game, No! Something a bit more, Secret!

Yes, there is a secret site-more of a blog- that is a personal blog by Codien. But can you find it?
Well it should be simple to find. Many people have found it already and i’m shocked at how many views i get daily!

My blog has the latest news about me. Also, it is still in development but, i will be posting about awesome online games and console games, new movies, books, the latest and greatest things i think worth posting, ART! Lots of Art! And i will be updating everyone on my around the world trip that will take off in a week!

“Track it down, look under rocks, jump over prison walls, take the bucket from your head and find my site (BLOG)!”

 

Seeing that a couple of people (Looking at you two :P) told everyone, and for those who still can’t find it, i will post it. It really is simple…

Poptropican’s 911: Issue #4

Slanted Fish

Hey Poptropicans! Recently the Poptropica Help Blog has published the fourth issue of our monthly newsletter, The Poptropican’s 911. This time we have TWELVE ultra-creative tales told by the bravest citizens around the Poptropica world. Green Seal is about to discover an unknown island, some lucky girls win tickets to a vacation at Shark Tooth Island, and the Agent Shadow trilogy wraps itself up as Shifty Shadow is brought to Evil Island. So, come read the 911 for September 2009!

Go give it a read.

We have also updated our ‘Poptropica Poll’ sidebar widget, so join in and submit your vote now! Our latest question reads, ”What do you think of the Pathwise game on Poptropica?”, and it’s based on the recent release of this brand-new puzzle game where you must click on tiles and try to connect to the other side before your opponent does.

August 2009’s poll question was, ”Which Poptropica Creator(s) have you met so far?” Here are the results:

Option | Votes | Percentage
None yet, but I hope to meet one really soon! | 1,151 | 17%

In other news, those of you who are between 6 to 12 years old are in for a treat! There’s an advertisement building on Main Street that includes a mini-quest and a costume for your reward. Shark Boy from the Poptropica Creators’ Blog has supplied the world with the following image:

The helicopter at the top brings you to the town of Chewandswallow, where you must rescue an off switch and return it to its maker! It is advertising a movie called Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, which is based on a book with the same title. After you find the off switch, which is located on the left side on top of a building, you’ll get to sail on a gigantic sandwich!

The image at the bottom shows the Bedknobs and Broomsticks ad building game, which Gazek has described in this post:

Have fun on your adventures!

The Time Traveler’s Friend?

motionman95

Once again, the Poptropica Creators bring us new Cool Stuff! Thanks to Icy Ice of the PHF, we bring you news about the latest items:

The Time Travelers Friend?
Introducing the Time Freeze and Follower!

Like predicted, the Follower is now out! Along with it is the Time Freeze, with which you can “freeze time” in Poptropica! It causes basically all action around you to stop. Some may call it useless (as I do), but as the PHF member ShaggyTornado says, it can be useful for screen shots of Poptropica. The Follower comes in several flavors: Bee, Spaceship, Bubble, Hearts, Hummingbird, Butterfly and Flies.

Aaaa! Bees!
Aaaa! Bees!

To me, the Spaceship seems awesome! I’m sure most girls will pick the Heart, of course. I was hoping that Mordred’s bird (Merlin) would be one of the “Followers” but no luck there. 😦

Both are the same price: 250 Credits. If I actually had the credits to buy one, I’d buy the Follower, as it seems the coolest! 🙂

Signing out, motionman95

UPDATE (Hijuyo speaking): I created a Multiverse room for some friends at the Poptropica Help Chatroom. On behalf of these guys, here’s our picture:

Sept4'09 Multiverse

Among the people I met were Friendly Berry (SassySweety), Green Seal, Undefined Undefined (binarybard_evil), Dangerous Lightning, Creepy Monster, and Curious Burger (Sneakyc)! Thanks for hanging out with me! 🙂

Jordan’s Enchanted Bedknobs And Broomsticks

Gazek

Enchanted Poptropicans, Holy Cow! A new Advertisement Building! This building seems to be for almost all ages, but in case you can’t find the ad building and wanna play it, just make a new account but with a younger age. Although, I must say, the movie title is really strange. I mean… Bedknobs and  Broomsticks?

The problem is  the King has stolen Astoroth’s Special medal. How rude of you, king!!! This is not kingly behaviour at all!!! Now, Your job is to go to The Isle of Naboombu, and win the medal back from him. I know, I know, It’s got really strange names… And you might be wondering how to get to the Isle. Simple, Just go too the next floor, and jump on the bed, and click on it. Then the bed starts flashing all the colors of the rainbow, and you get transported to the Isle. You’ll see a sign telling you not to go in, but be brave and ignore it, and walk on. And then, once you continue, you’ll see a soccer field. Continue walking, until you see a lion {King}  in robes. Talk to him, and accept his challenge to the soccer match. It’s very easy, just penalty shots. After you win, take the medal from the king, and go back to the magic bed transporter.

Now, talk to the guy who told you about everything. He’ll give you the costume: The Soccer King Cotume! It’s not called the soccer king.. He has a king costume on, and holds a soccer ball! Now you can throw soccer balls by pressing space bar!!! Oh, and we have discovered Dr.Hare’s (Jordan Leary) Email! Mail to: [email protected]. We’re Not sure how jordan will react to emails about poptropica, so be warned.

Ok, Now having to go to sleep, and still have only played pathwise Once,

Gazek.
