Interview: DOOLIE

Today I am interviewing DOOLIE, a Happy Wheels legend. He is working right now on Dawn of the Dead 8. If you havent seen his levels you should try them now.


1. How did you start playing Happy Wheels?


A friend of mine told me about.

2. What is the best update you have ever seen?

Early on when art pieces became available. Before you could only put interactive pieces.

3. What is your favourite character?

Irresponsable dad.

4. What do you like the most about HW?

Hmm.. I don´t know.. Pretty much everything with the user created levels and of course all the gore.

5. What do you hate the most about HW?

Uncreative and unoriginal levels.

6. How did you get the ideas for your awesome mechanisms?

I think about what I want to have happen then I think about how to make it work. Lots of trial and error.

7. How many hours do you spend at HW everyday?

I don´t go on HW everyday.

8. Would you want to give us some tricks to make a good level?

Be original, simpler is better for mechanisms, spend more time working on it rather than trying to finish quickly. And do whatever level you want to play, don´t make levels just to try and get lots of plays.

9. How do you feel when you have 5 featured levels?

Its always a good feeling to have something you make be liked by so many people.

10. Would you like to reveal some personal details (Country, tastes..)?


Nah..I´ll skip that one for now.


11. Is there something else you want to say?


Not that I can think of.
 



THANKS FOR YOUR TIME!

Detailed Monster 2 (Punch)

I have finished the monster! There are 2 little sleeping shapes connected by a joint (Button). One is on the ground and the other inside the arm, so when you touch the first one, the monster´s arm (which have a mottored joint) he punchs you!

Tips to get a featured level

If you want to get a featured level you should follow these tips:

- First of all, you need a good level idea. Your level must be original.

- Your level can´t be too short. Make it long.

- The gameplay should be amusing. Make traps and obstacles. It can´t be boring.

- Your level should be detailed. You should use the polygon tool. I will post some tips to detailing. Is very important to try to draw all as it is in the real life.

- Make it funny! Use jokes.

- Don´t write "Rate 5" and that kind of noob phrases.


Good luck!

Detailed Red Monster

Here it is the monster I am working on right now. Of course, I´ll do it much more detailed. He will punch you with his left hand and it will be part of my next level. Please give me your opinion at comments.

Review: Lighthead's Magical Waterfall

Today i will be reviewing Lighthead's newest level. It has a rating of 4.45 and a play count of 11.874k This was checked at 11:12 am Australian Time.

Gameplay

The gameplay is awesome! i found it a challenge, but thats what good levels are supposed to be. You go through a magical land and seek out the magical waterfall. There are several easter eggs in this level as well. There isn´t finish line, just a coin at the end.

Detail

Like always, in lighthead's levels, the detail is awesome, the trees, the grass and just everything! I really loved the running aliens!

Rating

I give this level a definite 5 stars because of the reasons above. this level is great, keep making levels lighthead!
