Hide & Seek Winner & Island Sneak Peeks

Congratulations to Barefoot Sky, who won the Hide & Seek challenge for the second time in a row! Here's the image that she successfully guessed:

It's never too late -- if you want to race Barefoot Sky next time, take a shot at this week's challenge!

The Creators haven been working full force on Galactic Hot Dogs Island recently -- I'll just link to the Sneak Peeks archive for you to check them out. As we can see, the art style is definitely very different from classic Poptropica. The last time they did that was for Wimpy Boardwalk Island, way back in 2012. This is also the first time in a year that they'll be making a full island, too. Here are some of the interesting scenes released:

Meanwhile, the Creators are currently on break. So for the past week, they've been releasing some concept art from very old islands. It's kind of interesting. Can you guess which island each of these images is from?

Over on Twitter, there's some even more exciting news going around. Although this is all speculative and not officially announced, there might soon be an island based on the Poptropica Comics! They've been proven successful, there's a comic book coming out sometime soon, why not a whole island?

These two tweets give some hints about an island not previously announced -- and very closely connected to the comics.

Moving on... Arabian Nights is on everyone's mind right now, what with the second episode released, but the Creators are already planning out the third one. Check out this sneak peek; it depicts the bazaar spire from the first episode, but at night. This could be the first time an episode has returned to the scenes of a previous episode!

And wait! Before I go, one last thing. The Creators have also given us the name and logo of the final version of Poptropica Land! It's going to be called Poptropica Realms, and the logo looks not too different from the original.

Whew, what a long post. And it reminds me -- I'm going to be off on vacation for a few days as well, so I won't get to make a New Year or holiday-themed post. So: happy early holidays and have an awesome new year!

Shrink Ray Out for All & GHD Island!

Shrink Ray Island, first released in 2011, was recently upgraded to have sound and a bigger screen! Starting today the the new and improved Shrink Ray is released to everyone, not just Members! Shrink Ray was one of my favorite islands from the day it released, and I love the remake (a lot of glitches seem to have been ironed out by now). If you get stuck, check out the guide and the video walkthrough!

And now, on to some speculation. The Creators tweeted a picture of what the Members-only store item for Galactic Hot Dogs is going to be, the F.R.E.D. Follower. It gives us a nice look into the art style of one of Poptropica's first sponsored island in ages. They also released an awesome-looking full scene:

Here are some of the recent Daily Pop sneak peeks relating to Galactic Hot Dogs. (Check out the Sneak Peeks page for even more, and it's updated daily). To someone who isn't familiar with GHD -- myself -- (I'll have to start reading it soon, it's an online comic book on FunBrain, Poptropica's sister site), they make no sense on their own, but perhaps it rings a bell for avid GHD readers? I'm just as excited as you are!

Speaking of comics, the Poptropica Comics app had a rather sudden and unexpected release last week. It's a free iOS only app (for now, we hope) that lets you browse through the comics released so far. If you can't get it, remember to check out the most up-to-date ones on FunBrain or the Creators' Blog!
