Happy Wheels Research Paper
Call us sick, but somehow, dragging a legless office worker across a wild obstacle course from the back of a Segway in Happy Wheels is... well, a lot of fun. More fun than it probably should be.
Happy Wheels is all about two things: ridiculous obstacle courses and its consistent damage system. The damage system is what really sets it apart from similar games. The obstacle courses mix a little bit of traditional platform gaming with some puzzle and racer elements, but it's the injuries your racers can suffer that really make the game addictive.

The courses are really imaginative at times. You'll drive full speed into rickety towers to knock them over and continue on your way and trigger explosions at just the right moment to get some obstacles out of your path.
Control for happy wheels is simple: up is to move, down is to reverse, and you use the left and right arrows to stay balanced. Lean over too far in one direction or another and you may wind up shattering your character to pieces in seconds flat. Sometimes, these little splatter shows can be the funnest part of the game.
Combined with the level editor, you could call this game: Mortal Kombat meets Linerider. The splattery action, the fast pace and the neat physics system make up an addictive, fun action game with endless
