We thought we created a good amount of easy levels, medium levels, and hard levels. Based on complaints, it turns out we perhaps made the game very hard. However, we can say that if you practice and learn the levels, most of them can be beaten consistently. We also tried to design the traps to be fun, so even if you lose, you enjoy yourself.

You can learn tips and tricks here.

Wireless controllers are not currently supported. In previous versions, some Bluetooth devices were supported.

Update 1.0.2 features better physics and you should see this happen much less

Sometimes in the game a strong force may blast your character (or a part of your character) through a wall. In physics simulation this is know as "tunneling." Update 1.0.2 improves the physics so this should be less likely. This update can be expected in the next few weeks.

You can reduce the amount of blood particles in the settings. However, this will not prevent your character from breaking apart and showing visible injury.

If a user makes a purchase and then deletes the app or performs a master reset, that purchase appears to be gone. However, they can use the restore purchases button to get that purchase back without getting charged. This button appears for all users regardless of whether or not they have made any purchases. Pressing it will never cause the user to be charged anything.

All the currently available levels are represented by a number or a lock icon. If you see "Coming soon" or "Coming later", none of that chapter is available yet. However, if you beat all of Business Guy's levels, you'll unlock one "All Characters Level". That is currently the only content that can be unlocked. If you beat 1-5 of Irresponsible Dad's levels, nothing unlocks, but we hope you feel a strong sense of pride.

Making new content has been a painfully slow process for us, but we're in the process of completing that chapter and subsequent chapters.

If you like, you can create your own levels in the editor and then send them directly to friends through email or iMessage.

We were required by Apple to remove injury to the kid as it violated one of their store policies. A more in-depth read on the matter can be found here.

The Android version was released in January 2020.Download it here.

The Android level editor is on hold at the moment.

Some things are permanent.

Go to Settings > Privacy > Advanced > Ads and toggle on Opt out of Ads Personalization.

To turn off analytics, in the Happy Wheels app, go to Options (the gear icon on the start menu) > Advanced Options > and set "send feedback" to "off". You must then confirm by presing "Don't send.

From the main menu of Happy Wheels, tap the gear icon (options menu) and then tap "advanced options" and then tap "notch size: none" so that it reads ""notch size: small" or ""notch size: large".

You can override the special button so that it appears on your preferred side. However, this will override the position for all characters. To do this, go the options > advanced options > and tap "override special side"

The bluetooth pop-ups seemed to be related with our banner ads, which we do not control. We have looked into it and believe it is fixed. If you still experience these kinds of popups, please try one of the following solutions:

1.) Temporarily turn on bluetooth while you play Happy Wheels. You can easily do this from control center. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to access control center and tape on the Bluetooth icon to turn it on. Because you are not actually connecting to any Bluetooth devices, you, this will not have a noticeable impact on your battery performance.

2.) Remove ads with an In-App Purchase of $1.99 (USD).

3.) Endure the annoying popups until we resolve the issue (we do not know when this will happen).

Sorry for the inconvenience!

This bug has been fixed in version 1.0.2. Please upgrade to this version.

There was a known bug in update 1.0.1 which was affecting many users. The user would see the start up screen, but the the app would quit (crash). We fixed the bug and a new version, 1.0.2, is available. However, if you continue to experience issues, you can delete the app and then reinstall it. Warning: you will lose all game progress and user created levels. If you choose to do this and you have purchased "Remove Ads", you can restore your purchase without being charged by tapping "restore purchases" in the options menu or pause menu.

We're really sorry to everyone effected by this bug and we hope the update is available quickly. Thanks for your patience.

This bug tends to happen older devices which we do not support and on newer devices that have not been upgraded to iOS 7 or higher.

Our supported devices are:

• iPhone 4S and up

• iPod Touch 5th gen and up

• iPad 2nd gen and up

• iPad Mini 1st gen and up

If we support your device and you are experiencing this issue, we recommend you update your device to a newer version of iOS. If your device is not support, we're sorry.

Sometimes during gameplay, the game may crash. We are looking into what causes this. It's most frequently associated with your character getting crushed, exploded, or being stabbed by spikes or harpoons and arrows. We're sorry for the inconvenience.

This can happen if Business Guy jumps at the wrong moment. If this happens to you repeatedly, try to avoid jumping and allow the spring platform or boost panel to move you past the platform. If you're currently stuck, all you can do is reset your level. We're sorry.

Happy Wheels iOS uses a version of the physics engine Box2D which has been updated since the release of the original Flash game. Sleeping bodies behave quite differently. In Flash, bodies must contact each other to wake from sleep. However, In iOS if two bodies can collide, only the bodies’ bounding boxes only need to overlap. A bounding box is basically a rectangle that encloses your object. A bounding box can be much larger than an object's actual shape, depending on the object's angle.

The spikes hit area actually extends a bit past the last spike on one side. This can cause confusion for players who seem to have narrowly escaped the spikes, but still got stabbed. We're sorry for any frustration this has caused.

We haven't yet added support for iPhone X and up screens. We're working on updating our code base to add support for more modern devices.

Some users experience crashes in the editor (it exits to the home screen). We're working to resolve these bugs. One known issue is related to blade weapons. If you keep experiencing crashes, first try avoiding blade weapons.

Another crash is related to attempting to share a level before saving it. This will cause a crash.

Both of these issues will be fixed in update 1.0.2, coming in the next few weeks. If you experience other crashes, please start a discussion.

We're very sorry if your level fails to save. This is a known issue and it has been fixed in update 1.0.1 which should be available soon.

If Business Guy gets stuck on the example level, just select the character and move him up a bit. This level was meant only to demonstrate some of the objects that can be placed in your levels.

You can share levels created in the editor through email or iMessages. When you're done testing your level, click the menu button (upper left corner of the editor), and select "share level". Select email or iMessages and then fill out the email or iMessage pop up.

Your friend will receive a message with a .happywheels file and a message containing a link to the App Store in case they do not already have Happy Wheels downloaded. When they tap on the file, they may see what looks like a bunch of code. They should then tap the button in the lower left corner that looks like this:

If they have Happy Wheels installed, they should be able to open the file in Happy Wheels.

• Minor bugs/tweaks.

With update 1.0.3, 5 levels were added for Irresponsible Dad. We're developing more content and working on ways to get updates out more quickly.

Our plan is to add a level browser where you can play and rate
user-made levels. We do not yet have a timeframe for this release, but we will continue to update and improve the game with new content and features.

After massively underestimating the amount of time it would take to release Happy Wheels for iOS, we made it our informal policy to only speak vaguely as to when an update can be expected. This frustrates everyone slightly, but less so than when we miss a deadline by 100 years.
