May Party Sneak Peek (and Stage update)

Hello Penguins!

Every month there’s a party in Club Penguin–this month the team has been working really hard on something we’ve never done before and it’s almost finished! I got a glimpse of the upcoming party (it’s medieval theme!) and I’m really excited!! I’ve never seen Club Penguin look so different! I posted something that the team has been working on so you could have a glimpse too.

The party starts next Friday May 16! I hope you can all join in!

 

In other news: The Stage was updated today with the 12^th Fish play. I totally forgot how much fun it was to dress up as a fish!! What is your favorite part? I heard some of you like taking your script and costumes to other places around Club Penguin and performing there. That’s a great idea!!!

 

Some of you may be wondering why the Switchbox 3000 isn’t a part of this play–I heard it could be used during the medieval party…

 

As always, we love to hear what you think!

 

Until then…waddle on!

New Music In Light house and more!

First, there is new music in the light house. Second, Screenhog posted:

Hi everyone, it’s Screenhog!
 
Last week we launched the Treasure Hunt game in the Captain’s Quarters of Rockhopper’s ship and from what we heard, a lot of you enjoyed it! Rockhopper is gone from Club Penguin now, and that means the game is gone too. But don’t worry, you’ll be able to play Treasure Hunt again when Rockhopper returns.
 
Treasure Hunt, as you all probably know, is Club Penguin’s first ever cooperative game, where you and a friend can earn coins together. Here’s some behind-the-scenes art from the game:
 
 
 
Those are most of the dirt tiles made for the game. Treasure Hunt is a tile-based game, which means that a lot of the art for it was broken up into square pieces that could be used as many times as the game needs them. Each tile was made separately by an artist and then another designer took the tiles and programmed each one to change on the board after each move. Cool stuff.
 
 
 
This is the rough art of the wood fence that surrounds the Treasure Hunt game. After this sketch, an artist put clean black lines on top of it, colored in the wood planks and then it was ready to hold all the dirt tiles!
 
Oh, and before I forget, thanks for all the wonderful comments about the clothing catalog! We’re glad you’re having fun with it! There are a lot of secrets in this catalog–have you found them all? There’s one that’s not an item, but it’s still pretty cool!
 
Until then…waddle on!

BillyBob:Club Penguin In Uk!

 

Hello Penguins!

I wanted to let all of you know a piece of exciting news.

There are kids from around the world that play Club Penguin and this month we opened a Club Penguin office in the UK. We love hearing from all of you and decided it would be a really good idea to have a team totally dedicated to that in the UK.

 

To celebrate the opening of the office, there is a special event planned at the ZSL London Zoo at the beginning of May. For those of you who live in the London area, and want to check it out, here are the details you need to know:

 

When: May 3, 11 a.m - 4 p.m.

Where: ZSL London Zoo

Who: Everyone is invited

What: Free access to the zoo, a chance to feed real penguins, and lots of activities (I heard there might even be a ‘best penguin costume’ contest)

 

In other news: Thanks for all your feedback about the new site! We’re still ‘polishing’ it and your suggestions are a great help!

CPIP Blog-Cleaning Up The Logo!

Hello Penguins!

First of all, the testing this weekend was a huge success!  We pushed the new servers hard, but they are working better than ever because of it.  So thanks again to everyone who helped with that!  We’re glad you enjoyed being puffles!

We’re getting ready to start talking about the new website, but I wanted to get your input on something before we do. 

Working with Disney has been really cool and they have been totally supportive of Club Penguin and what we believe in.  This is why we want them to be a part of our logo, but we’ve heard from many of you that the current version is a bit ugly and cluttered with all the text so we’re trying to clean it up.

                Old Logo                                  New Logo

We wanted to show you how we might fix it and find out what you think of the change.   As always, take a look and let us know what you think!

Until then… Waddle On!
