Future Party

"SAVE THE ISLAND"

- The tagline for the party

The Future Party was a party in Club Penguin that occurred from May 22 to June 4, 2014. During the party, players could travel to a future time period of the year 4014 and could blast off into space to defeat a forgotten enemy.

Backstory
A Future Party was first hinted in Spike Hike's backstory of #WaddleOn... with Gary!. Players responded with a desire for a Future Party, leading to the party being made. On November 8, 2013, Spike Hike posted on the fan blog Club Penguin Memories a little background about the episode.

However, the Future Dome wasn't used in the party.

Storyline
Gary uses the Time Trekker 3000 in early May to go to the future. He meets the Extra-Planetary Federation (future EPF) and Gary 3000 (future version of himself). However, the Ultimate Protobot 10K is threatening to sink the island by shooting it down with meteors unless Gary 3000 gives into his demands. The future EPF cannot help as they embark on other missions involving distant planets such as Upzar II, so citizens of the "present Club Penguin" must go to the future through the Time Portal (not the Time Trekker 3000, as it's used as the source instead), so they can save the island from the incoming meteors, the microbots, and Protobot. Protobot's plan after was to rule the entire galaxy by stealing secret technology from the EPF. He came on May 29, 4014 in the future, floating in orbit, when attacking from a distance became a challenge. He then battles the new Extra-Planetary Federation Agents to rule the universe, but is defeated by the advanced technology and explodes.

Major observable events between May 2014 and May 4014
As seen in the future version of the island, a large apocalyptic event occurs that destroys large portions of the island. It is unknown if this is simply an alternate timeline, and that knowledge of these events allows them to be avoided, causing a different version of the future in which the island is not destroyed. The future island is also very different from the present. The sky looks like the purple space above, the trees and plants are made of holograms.
 * In June the Penguin Cup takes place annually, as mentioned in the future newspaper.
 * Robotics take over much of the work force on the island, such as the Coffee Shop (which is revamped into the Blast-Off Bistro), and the Clothes Shop (which is revamped into the Robo Shop).
 * At some point, Herbert P. Bear is defeated and/or leaves the island, as Gary 3000 worries about him coming to the future, meaning he is not already there.
 * Other mascots and known characters either die or in hiding.
 * The Elite Penguin Force dissolves and forms into the Extra-Planetary Federation, which has missions all across the universe. Gary 3000 makes inventions for them, and Rookie apparently replaces Aunt Arctic as the Director, although this may have been a joke.
 * The Lighthouse is converted into a headquarters for the Extra-Planetary Federation.
 * Protobot is once again rebuilt, this time in an extremely large and powerful form. He is no longer made out of parts from the island.
 * Meteors destroyed The Plaza, Mine Shack, Ice Rink, Puffle Park, Forest, Dojo Courtyard, Cove, Stadium, and Ski Village, possibly due to the impact caused by Protobot.
 * Since there are no puffles in the future, it can be assumed that they have either gone extinct or left the island. However, there are a hint of alien puffles at the Interstellar Zoo, as well as many other new species.
 * Gary is the only mascot known to be alive when the party took place.

Stamps

Musical Style

 * See music SWFs for the party

The music for the party was styled as electronic music, with hints of a chiptune style blended into the music, giving the sense of the abundance of technology. The theme music for the Battle Room/Training area (where penguins defended against incoming meteors and robots) was given a fast-tempo for a "danger effect".

Trivia

 * It was confirmed on the Membership Page on April 3, 2014.
 * This is the first party to take place in the future.
 * 75% of Club Penguin Island has been destroyed because of the meteors at this party, including the Dojo, Ski Hill, and Iceberg. The environment has changed over time as well such as replacing trees with holograms and the water being apparently polluted.
 * It is the third type of party to focus on a specific period in time, the first being the Medieval Parties and the second being the Prehistoric Parties.
 * This is the second time penguins were able to go to space, the first being the Star Wars Takeover.
 * May's party was originally going to be a Music Jam event, but that was proven to be false; the Music Jam has been confirmed to come sometime during the summer as the Music Jam 2014.
 * During the party, the EPF agents joined the future group, the Extra-Planetary Federation, to combat threats in outer space and other dimensions. Members are able to help the agency by using Robos at the party (which are based on mechas, a common element in science fiction).
 * There is a new party-exclusive mini-game at the party, though it takes place in the game, and with other penguins, like the game in the Unplugged Arcade Machine at The Fair 2014.
 * The tagline, "Save the Island", is similar to Operation: Blackout's tagline.
 * Ultimate Proto-Bot 10000's silhouette can be seen through the Beacon Telescope two weeks before the party. It is unknown how this is possible, because he was supposed to be in the future planning his attack.
 * Penguins can go into the future using a Time Portal accessible from the Snow Forts.
 * This is the first party not to use the Time Trekker to travel to a specific time period, yet the Time Trekker is being used as a power source for the portal.
 * The party takes place in the year 4014.
 * There is a World Cup found in one of the shelves of the Futuristic Clothes Shop (Robo Shop) for the upcoming Penguin Cup.
 * Not all of the text seen in the future Club Penguin are readable, as various rooms showed text in an unrecognizable language. This is probably an alien language invented in the distant future.
 * Every 5 minutes, a Space Squid DJs at the Dance Dome.
 * Members could put their igloo on the map on a special list if they were using the new Space Dome Igloo.
 * Issue #448 of the Club Penguin Times was renamed as Issue #104448, and so was #449 as #104449, meaning that the newspaper had that many issues as of the year 4014. Also, both of these issues had a light-blue, holographic, hex design.
 * Protobot's words differentiate by how many people there are and how many people are Robos.
