Sneak Peeks

Colors All Around Us, Maintenance Update

Colors all around us – there are so many different colors everywhere! The earth we are on is an amazing creation. 😀

The Poptropica Creators must have been thinking the same thing. Comic Kid, a Creator, posted an interesting sneak peek of a colorful shop with clown gear. Thanks Blue 6254 for the news! Blog picture below:

Blog Post Title: Clowning Around
Description: It never ceases to amaze me that no matter where I go, there always seems to be stores that sell just about anything you can think of.

This sneak peek looks like it’s showing a nice shop stocked with colored wigs, hats with flowers poking out, balloons, glasses, and more! Comic Kid even seems to be waving to us in that picture. However, I’m not sure which island this sneak peek is for… 😦

Looking on the colorful side, there’s a new poll – no, make that 2 – on the Creators’ Blog. Thanks Cheerful Claw! The first one says: “GIRLS ONLY! – What is your favorite color?” The options are pink, blue, black, purple, yellow, green, red, brown, and white. Pink is winning this one. Don’t feel left out, boys, there’s one for you guys too! Scroll down a little to see the second poll: “BOYS ONLY! – What is your favorite color?” The options are a bit different: black, white, orange, green, red, blue, purple, yellow, and brown. Blue is winning!

Also, Director Lion (Gentle Lion) would like everyone to know that there is an ad between places on some islands such as Early Poptropica called “The Big Apple”. Remember to take a look at the posts below for some interesting Poptropica updates!

Maintenance Update
Last night and this morning Poptropica was down for maintenance. Im guessing it was mostly behind the scenes update, more or less the finishing touches on Bignate island. 😛
But there was one thing that i managed to see.
Email Notification SignupPoptropica has replaced the Bignate email to Astro-Knights email. Whether it means Bignate is soon to be released or maybe it means Astro will be coming out sooner the we think.

Hot news:
Disneys’ Lucky Socks (News on the new Disney double-ad, another Snapshot Sagas visit, and new clothes)
PHB Sneak Peeks: The New Knights of Poptropica (an exclusive sneak peek for Astro-Knights Island)
More TV Stars! (Reality TV Island sneak peek)

Nabooti Island, Sneak Peeks

I Spy… a tree!

Whew! For the third day in a row, the Creators have yet another sneak peek! In this one we also get a glimpse of the Poptropica blimp, so this is probably what Main Street will look like on Nabooti Island – which seems to be the island being depicted! Blog picture:

Blog Post Title: Up a Tree

Image Name: nabTree.jpg

The guy in the picture seems to be wearing some kind of decorative glasses never seen before: maybe we can get them when Nabooti comes out! Also, the image name is “nabTree”, and we think “nab” probably means Nabooti. 😉

Surprise! Codien found the Poptropica font! Head over to the Cool Stuff page to see it or go straight over to the actual site where you can download it!The Poptropica Font [Creative Block BB] It’s really awesome. :mrgreen:

Because we’ve been getting so many sneak peeks recently, don’t forget to check the posts below to make sure you haven’t missed anything! 😛

Bonus Items, Nabooti Island, Web Development

Sunglasses, Arrive Lounge and Choose Your Own Adventure!

The bonus sunglasses!
The bonus sunglasses!

Another Bonus, Sunglasses! – The golden trophy cup is no longer available, and if you were holding it, it would have been removed from your hand. But now there is another bonus to get: Sunglasses! Here’s how to get them:

  1. Go to Time Tangled Island.
  2. On Time Tangled Island, move to the right and jump on the roof of Pendulum’s Lab. From there, jump onto the nearby window ledge, then up again until you reach the top window ledge. There should be a wire with crows on the left. Jump on that, and you should be on top of a dome. If you aren’t, try jumping on the wire again until you are standing on the dome.
  3. On the dome, move around until you see a gray arrow in the middle of the dome. Jump onto the arrow. You should see a pair of sunglasses there.

Click on it and your character will wear it. The word “BONUS” will appear for a few moments, then fade away. Please note that the sunglasses are not an item, and will not appear as one in your inventory.

The Arrive Lounge – There is a new advertisement building in Time Tangled Island, Main Street, Super Power Island, Main Street and Early Poptropica Island, Main Street – The Arrive Lounge! It is at the right side of the island. Inside the building, you can try on 6 sets different clothes. (Like the Masks & Capes shop on Super Power Island)

There is also a place where you can take a photo of your character. To take the photo, go inside the photo booth (located on the right side), make sure your browser’s pop-up blocker is disabled, and click on the green button with a picture of a camera! You can also save the picture of your character on your computer!

(Thanks Smockers for the Sears photoshoot picture!)

UPDATE: Sorry for all the confusion. The sunglasses bonus are no longer available. 😦

Choose Your Own Adenture! – The Poptropica creators say that they’re working closely with the publisher of the Choose Your Own Adventure book series to create a new island. They have said that this island will take you on a trek through Africa, where you’ll be seeking out the stolen jewels of the Nabooti tribe.
You can read about it here: http://blog.poptropica.com/   The Poptropica creators say they will be giving sneak peeks of the great new island.

In other news: The Shark Tooth Island Quest guide has just been added onto the blog! Check it out here. I hope you find this guide helpful! 😛 Also, an FAQ guide has been added, so if you’ve got a question about Poptropica, why not check out the FAQ to see if your question is there with an answer? If it isn’t, you can always post a comment asking a question and I’ll try to answer it for you! 😉
