Welcome to the happys wheels crew!

What is happy wheels and why the fuck should i care?

Happy wheels is a VERY entertaining, gory physics platform racer made by jim bonacci where you the main goal is to reach the end of platform without dying, you can lose as many non vital body parts as you want and still win.

Sounds interesting, what do i do?

Here we will just basically discuss happy wheels, share user created maps, kick ass screen shots, and replays.

RULES:
Try to stay on topic, other than that standard BBS rules apply.

Play it here http://www.totaljerkface.com/happy_wheel s.php

AND REMEMBER:
winning is more important than life itself.

Holy shit, I just now wrote a review for Happy Wheels right here.

Count me in! I love the game, I'm completely addicted. My favorite character has got to be the irresponsible dad, followed by the fat lady (efficient shopper). I still laugh every time someone dies.

Jim added harpoons 2 weeks ago, that shit so so cool getting shot by one and having it hook into you and if it has the anchor setting it will have a rope on it which drags you back ripping you in pieces.

Response to The Happy Wheels crew! 2011-01-25 23:41:25


Incidentally, that's when I really got into this. A guy who streams games that I watch regularly was playing it before the regular stream one time. I watched it and laughed all evening with them, and started playing it myself the next day.

My strategy for harpoons: Use the fat chick or the irresponsible dad. The fat chick is notorious for being able to take many harpoon hits. And the dad... Use CTRL to fling little Jimmy in front of a harpoon that keeps killing you. The harpoon will get him, but not you.

Response to The Happy Wheels crew! 2011-01-25 23:59:49


If it's in a tight space then I just jump and move at an angle so it hits the bottom of the bike, the ones with anchors do more damage so if it's a non anchor harpoon I just man up and get impaled in the stomache and move on, I once 3 harpoons and only lost an arm and killed the kid.

Also go browse levels and search ''casino'' go to the bottom one that says ''casino family fun time'' that's my favorite custom level, you need to sacrifice the kid to advance.

Response to The Happy Wheels crew! 2011-01-26 00:32:07


I love trying to finish a level with no damage taken (a huge feat on some levels, and impossible on others).

Finally finished Casino Family Time, with a score of 32.36 seconds. Poor Jimmy took one for the team.

Also, it looks like I'm single now!

Haha! Nice man! Also go to browse levels again and go to best rating all time, and go to medieval jerk 2, the guy did a great job with the art. Also I think it's cool when you grab onto something at a fast pace and it rips your arms halfway off so your dangling in mid air by your veins and you watch as they slowly split then you fall in a spike pit.
it's also awesome when you fly out of your vehicle really fast and hit an angle and split right in 2.

LOL, this is hilarious. Just had quick go, I won but I lost the kid.

I use to love this game. I've stopped playing it now, but I may give it another go because of this crew.

I don't like the version on here. It's very limited. I would review it, but I'd probably end up reviewing every single level and character and my review would be too long.

My favorite character is the irresponsible dad. He has the best controls, and he can fly.

If you didn't know about the irresponsible dad "flying" then, yes he can fly. If you hit the arrow keys left and right pretty quickly, he stays in the air longer than he normally does.

It's hard to get a review that is too in-depth here.

My opinions on the characters:
In terms of survivability, the old man can take some hits. He can lose both arms and legs, plus that rocket is powerful.

Segway guy has nice control, plus the bunny-hop is nice. I use him less often than others, however.

Irresponsible dad has the kid on the back. That alone makes his character one of the funniest to use.

The fat lady has good hopping, and some speed. The contents of the cart are fun to play with, especially the exploding cereal box and coke bottle.

The moped couple... They have speed. But they are also very hard to get used to, and flipping the bike over often kills both.

I should start saving replays.
Check out the Bike Joust, a difficult but playable level. My record is 4.7 seconds.

This level, Centrifuge, is absolute pure evil. Took me forever to get one victory... and I got it by slowly struggling off of spikes and then bouncing and crawling to the finish line. I'm pretty sure Jimmy died on some mines. A replay only shows Dad flying through the air and saying DAMMIT when some blood and gore flew past.

Sure beats my 67 seconds, but it takes forever to move without a bike. I just signed up so I can save replays, and rate levels. My first replay!

Just go through the list and play all of the ones that say "DONT MOVE!"
Te best ones are hard to find. I haven't come across one that I played more than three times.

Response to The Happy Wheels crew! 2011-01-28 00:54:12


I'm up late, so heres some fun levels!

Dad's Day At Work Pretty tricky, but it's a great level with some nice minivans and some other stuff. My best replay on this level. A true happy wheels finish, I made some sacrifices. I actually hadn't completed it until that run, so a lot of the level was a surprise to me.

You're Idiots: A rant in game form. Need I say more? It actually brings up a few points that I see a lot on HW levels.

Adrenaline Rush... Very short, hard level. You'll die the first couple of times, but after that, it should be a quick victory.

Cake Is A Lie. Cute little level with some interesting hazards. Kept my interest for a few minutes.

Anyway, this is what I found interesting in the late hours of the night. What do you guys think?

Response to The Happy Wheels crew! 2011-01-28 01:26:27


I played your idiots and adrennaline rush yesterday, I'll be sure to check out the others.

With all due respect, I have a problem with this rant.

All of that in mind, I thought the other points were valid. No one is going to rate 5 stars because it's on the level. No one is going to like you if you import BMX Park 2 and change it around. And I fucking hate finding incomplete levels. I once completed an "Impossible Level" and couldn't finish because the moron who made it forgot to put in a finish line. It was frustrating as hell because I had to overcome his shitty work with the blocks, too.

Also, you might like this: Don't MOVE Actually pretty clever use of the giant fans.

Death Grip Some random level. Can you beat it? I did, but Jimmy's bike seat came off.

Response to The Happy Wheels crew! 2011-01-29 19:58:29


Did you guys see that new stage?? The Michael Jackson's tribute one. I first tought it was impossible, but I managed to finish it with the motorcycle dude. Pretty hard, but it was cool. :)

So, what did you guys think about that stage?? Cool, bad, ridiculously hard? Tell us what you think.

I finished it in the second time I played it, when I realised that I needed another character... The world does not turns around the irresponsible dad... lol

So, with which character did you finished the stage??

The first time I thought it was cool and then I got mowed down by bullets. Second time I don't know how the hell I did it but right before they fired I flung jimmy in mid are towards them and he too my of the bullets so I didn't have to dodge much.

Response to The Happy Wheels crew! 2011-02-04 00:15:49


I nearly completed the Micheal Jackson stage with the efficient shopper, but once you get that scooter flipped over, it's nearly impossible to get it back upright without breaking your neck.

Also, I keep playing this level: The Crusher.

I have to admit, I laughed like a kid when I played that. Excellent find.

I remember one level where you had the dad. It was on the stream I watch. The guy was waiting for the usual start time, playing Happy Wheels. He went across a level that was small platforms, and at the end of each one, was a harpoon and a small drop. The key was dodging the shots. The first one was a tethered harpoon (the only one of the level), so if it got you, the rest of the level was going to be pretty hard.

You had to use a lot of trial and error to beat the level. Perhaps ditching Jimmy at the start to avoid the tethered harpoon, or save him for the end?

Response to The Happy Wheels crew! 2011-02-13 22:59:47


This is what it looks like at the moment of impact of a fucking harpoon!
