| First of all, happy Halloween! If you celebrated it, hope you had fun dressing up (both physically and on Poptropica). And now, on to some exciting news: Shrink Ray Island is being remade with a bigger screen and sound! Isn't it ironic how an island about being shrunk to half the height of a remote control is being given a bigger screen? I think Shrink Ray will benefit a lot from this upgrade. The old screen size just wasn't doing it for this island. Click here for the new Info page, and also the new trailer. The remake is promised to come out sometime this month. |  |
| Members can get two new costumes from the store: the Milk Box and the Bottle Cap. And also, Members are the only people who can now play Poptropica Land: the public preview has ended! Congratulations to all the nominees, which you can browse here, and also the winners in each category so far: Silver Lightning, Serious Bird, Zany Crown, and one more coming soon for Haunted; so far it looks like Fast Lizard is in the lead. Click here to vote! Thankfully, it sounds like come January, Land is going to be released to everyone -- and it'll be the final version, not an alpha or preview. Cool! |  |  |
| Remember that poll I made on how many people actually liked the new episodal islands? Only about one third of the people said that they liked the episodal islands. Sounds like the Creators listened -- because next year they're going to make NEW islands in full form! Also, we've been waiting about half a year for the Poptropica App to release on Android devices. The Creators just said that we'll only have to wait 5 more weeks! Although, they have gone back on several promised release dates for the app (albeit due to technical troubles) and Android users will of course have to pay for the individual islands. | |
Who agrees that instead of charging already paying customers for each island (which are free online), they let us log in to our Member accounts on the app? I'm pretty mad that I have a Membership and still have to pay for mobile islands. Anyway, have a happy November!
