----BEGIN MESSAGE FROM JASON----

It’s a bazillion degrees out in Brooklyn and our internet went out for a bit, but we still managed to update the game.

Some of you were eerily correct when you guessed what the new character would be. Today we added Explorer Guy. He rides in a mine cart which can attach to the new rail item by pressing the space bar. It’s the first character I made and I’m pretty happy with it. I hope people make fun obstacle course levels with these new additions.

We also added a FAQ and release log. We’ll keep these updated so people can stop asking the same questions over and over.

(Hopefully) On Monday, July 25th, the website will be temporarily down while we migrate to the new server setup. The site should run more smoothly after that.

We should also have a couple cool new things added to the game by next Friday.

Thanks for being patient and continuing to play through all these server woes. And shut up to everyone who has not been patient.

A few notes about Explorer Guy:

The mine cart wheels only attach to one side of the rails.
Press and hold space bar to attach to the rails.
Shift is stand.
Ctrl (Command for mac users) is duck.

Thanks Jason! The wait payed off. Although I`m making a level with segway guy where it`s adventure-esque and a minecart is involved. :( I`ve been beat.

Hey Jim,how's the new sever coming?

By colonel Ford on Jul. 22nd, 2011 7:08PM

The new character can be used to do alot of things so i now have more level opportunities!

By boredinschool on Jul. 22nd, 2011 7:11PM

YESSS!!! I had just started a level where you had to outrun a train and this is goin to add so much more to the level!!!

By MrSexyRaccoon on Jul. 22nd, 2011 7:17PM

Seems awesome but i got awesome suggestions for future updates. Add a BIGFOOT ON AN ATV just like the ones from the butchykid videos on youtube. Add a little girl on a scooter or a pink bike. Add a skateboard dude with a mohawk. At a harley davidson guy on a motorcycle. And i would like to see more "stereotypical hilarious characters" it would be awesome if you could atleast make a bigfoot on a atv that would be a dream come true! <3

It's nie and all, but I crashed the cart once and now it's invisible and the [arts from it before carry on in the same level as if the were artwork.

Calm down you people. Thank you jim for a super nice character. Funner than Lawmower guy and moped couple. (lawnmower is my least favorite, but I love him too,)

By njkkid98 on Jul. 22nd, 2011 8:22PM

By LuckyBeijing on Jul. 22nd, 2011 8:31PM

33rd!!!! yay 3 is the magic # hahaha IM PATHETIC

By JJTH on Jul. 22nd, 2011 8:34PM

I've a suggestion for this new character. The abilities to duck and stand up are okay, but what this character could [b]really[/b]use, is an ability to brake. I can imagine that once a few days have passed, and awesome levels have been made, this ability would come in very handy. Maybe it can replace one of the current abilities? Also, he seems to take damage very quickly.

By C4Radon on Jul. 22nd, 2011 8:44PM

Character looks nice, thanks for the updates. I think you should change the look of the boxers as when I first saw them I hadn't a clue what they were and thought it was some blue glitch similar to the green box that was under the lawnmower man. Also, just saying guys you need to bust out some more level editor items, there are already 7 pretty diverse characters all with special abilities. Now give them a kickass environment to dismember themselves in. And add some powered rails similar to boosters but not as powerful, I'm not sure... ANYWAYS, nice to hear from you guys, have a nice day

By colonel Ford on Jul. 22nd, 2011 9:06PM

This is my level. I saw nobody else made oine like this so i made this. [url]http://www.totaljerkface.com/happy_wheels.php?levelid=1479134[/url]
