    Hey guys! Bit of a chill video with this one. Tried something a little different, what do you think? And the editing and grand scale will come back in the next video and well... more details to come! I needed a small break after the Poppy video. Alright thanks again see ya soon 👋.

      Unfortunately when Flash shut down, all the old islands that haven't been sound updated couldn't port well to their new game engine Haxe. They'd essentially have to start from scratch and recode everything which would take a while, but they're slowly reintroducing the old islands along with new ones

I even remember specifically which 3 islands they were after all this time!

    I remember playing this game sooo much as a kid, now they have removed basically all my favorite ones. For example: The Survival Series, you can only play part 1 and part 2 is locked behind a membership, and also the one with the swords and the robots(I forget the name), they never finished that one either and it also got removed. You can play a lot of the old islands on Flashpoint, but Survival isn’t there and a lot of other favorites I’ve had.

      you can play all the old ones! The really old and good ones categorized into “AS2” islands can be played through something called flashpoint, (just look up a guide for that)even with ur current account. The kinda old islands categorized into AS3 can be played through the steam version, like in this video, and there is also a reddit guide that shows you how to play the AS3 ones for free, which I can link if you want.

    Poptropica became a shell of its former self after the death of Flash. My favorite Islands were Astroknights, Mythology, and Ghost Story. I don't have anything to say about the Haxe Islands, because they just pale in comparison to the Classic Islands I played as a kid. My account is still active though, and my Poptropica OC, now named Red Moon, was my first ever OC as a kid. I occasionally do fanart of her and I dress her specifically in all black dark academia and goth clothes. Overall, Poptropica was my childhood and the game brings both nostalgia and disappointment in its current state for me.

    Poptropica, cool math games, primary games, and coolified games were my favorite places to go when I had a slow class.
    I loved the og islands. Sad they got rid of a bunch of them due to java and the old system being out of date and discontinued

    Fun fact!! The monster carnival ending was changed due to fans coming out to tell the devs how the original ending (where Raven actually becomes "Chicken Boy" or something) wasn't satisfying and just, put the Ringmaster into ridicule like he was as "Bird Boy". The devs teased it on a fan blog qna.
    Coming from an actual poptropica fan (I've drawn multiple fanart and also was shown on their blog for a tiktok lol), it's kinda nice to see the devs listening and changing it.
    Still sucks that most of the islands aren't there still. But I reccomend the new islands on the web. It's good to see updates

    One island I had fond memories of is Virus Hunter. As a kid, I always loved Fantastic Voyage style stories because biology and research the human body is one of my favorite subjects to learn, even if I'm not planning to become a doctor or nurse. This island really got me hooked about it and the premise is very good as well. There's also Zomberry Island, which I do like zombie break out stories and the reveal of how it all started is clever. This was long before the SpongeBob episode, Krabby Patty Creature Feature, which also has kinda the same idea where a specific food is causing a zombie outbreak. There's also the other islands based on stories I like like Survival Island reminded me a lot of the Tomb Raider game from 2013 and Mystery Train is because I do like Sherlock Holmes style of mystery. I think that's one of Poptropica's unique charm, on top of loving tributes and homages and cross-over islands, they also come up with unique original ideas for their islands.

All I remember is that I heard about Monster Carnival getting cancelled, and I was like “oh that sucks. I hope it can eventually get released someday.” So then when I heard that they were actually going to release it, I thought that was super cool. But then I apparently completely forgot about it right after playing it.
