How do I make the tab of the game bigger...it's too small...mine is windows 10
This game is still one of the BEST~
What an epic story and message it contained!
When I first played it, I thought it was a healing game that could make people happy in a cute, relaxed world.
But the only people who were actually happy were those who solved the requests, and the rest were either unhappy or unhappy to begin with!
And the glitch factor from the ending was very awesome!
Unyaaaah!
I wanted to make Nunu happy because I love her too much, meoooooow!
Poor Nunu.
I just played this... thing... I loved it.
It's about an hour long, so please, play it. :D
hey, its me again!! i have a question :D
you said that there was going to be a sequel, right
is the story of the little white guy/never leave me gonna ever be explained
they are my favorite character and tbh they r rly interested !!
if you wanna talk to me my twitter is SWEETSWEETMEAT or my discord is MARIAH !!#1987 thank you !! have a nice day :)
this game nice! only one of the screenshot reminds me of confraternity of toast but puzzle edition
we did a playthrough of this game! hope u like it
How much GB of RAM do i need to play this?
32
Less than .2GB. It's using 176M on mine.
Hey there, OneFourtySevenAM here, and I just played your game for a video series I have called "Indie Picks". If you're at all interested in seeing what I thought of your game, feel free to watch the video.
Hey sorry to bother but is there a way to change the screen size?
there's a pretty good reason why
It's a trick a lot of subversive indie games use. Basically the game searches for the user file that usually named after you, and then it repeats it in the game. It's spooky at first but it gets dry when you see it done too many times.
Subversive? Very funny. It's a simple environment variable call on Windows. As with all EVs, this is information available to any and all apps without any complex code. On late versions of Windows, it's simply %USERNAME%; on earlier ones, you would strip it from the end of %USERPROFILE%. No searching is needed at all.
Right-click the start menu, choose Command Prompt and enter the following:
ECHO %USERNAME%
And see the "magic" of subversion. Want to see some more? Simply enter:
set
The reason big name games don't do this is because it's very unlikely to be your username although it might be the first five characters.
Just because it's easy doesn't mean it's right.
Just because it's wrong doesn't make it subversive.
Hey, i really enjoyed your game!
The style is so nice and unique, i really enjoyed it. All those little secrets are so interesting to come by and explore.
I wish i could've contacted you directly but it's really hard to find any social media of yours, heh.
I really wonder what are you up to next and can't wait to see new creations from you!
Thank you so much !
You can join the discord or go to my youtube on the game's trailer if you want(where there are updates on new stuff)
This game is literally the best. The happiness and horror lore in it makes me love this game, can't wait for a sequel if there is one! :D
I absolutely adore this game. The style, the music, the dialogue, everything is great.
I am curious if you guys are working on another game? I would love to see what else you can come up with.
Thank you :)
It's just me actually, and I am!
oh my god, are you actually planning to make the sequel?? if I'd only know how to help you I would gladly help. this game is really underrated imo and its such a shame I couldn't play, it seriously needs more people to recognize how beautiful it is, I listen to the soundtrack 24/7 and what can I say?? its affascinating to me. good luck with the sequel, and I rlly hope we can get more of "never leave me/white" :^)
Thanks! That makes me happy
glad to know that!! :DD
Sorry to say that the true ending is contrary to the fact.

thank you that means so much to me :)
hello!! I am a rlly big fan of your work dude!! but like,,I think there's an issue with my pc.
basically when I try opening the app it says I can't. im on Mac and I don't understand what's wrong
ty :) unfortunately i dont know what causes mac to do that... im aware of this but havent found a solution
aww man, such a shame, I rlly wanted to play HAPPY WORLD-
There's a way to play windows games on mac I think it's called VirtualBox. I'm sorry even if I wanted to fix the mac port I couldn't, the project file is on my broken harddrive. If one day I could fix it it would be a miracle.
frick. I'll try using the virtual machine and see if that'll work, also sorry to hear the hard drive broke
Not sure why I didn't comment much sooner, but I love this game and its soundtrack! It was on my mind for a good while after I played it in July 2018. It's very unique, and it influenced my tastes in surreal horror. The Nunu segment really hurt. ;p
Very well done!
I'm so glad to hear that, thank you :)
This game is probably one of my favorite creative art projects I've ever seen or experienced. Any chance of a sequel or another game in this style?
Thanks that means a lot :) and for now it's uncertain. I was making a follow up(HAPPY PARTY) to it but it got lost on someone's laptop and my old broken harddrive.
what genre would you describe your music / soundtrack to be?
No genre honestly, I don't like categorizing
:D
In the hub, there's a background music: After the girl told me to restore the happiness, the hub music started; and after I find the hope of the true ending, the hub music changes. https://jimmymaslaki.bandcamp.com/album/happy-world-soundtrack But why don't you upload the hub musics to the soundtrack?
You mean the default hub music pre-true ending? It's just a blurred out version of Her House I didn't really feel like it was worth including
https://jimmymaslaki.bandcamp.com/track/burn , what's burning in the game?
Red, you, burning in pain
Does it play when doing the true ending?
Yes, before you enter the furnace if you fall off it will trigger the event
Finding the true ending was too easy for me. If you wanna make it difficult, modify the way to get the artifact from purple, blue, or red. E.g., to press the space(while not talking) is to dance, it's difficult to get the artifact if the player must dance in red plane.
I don't have the project anymore, it's on my old harddrive that crashed
The game got smaller in size, as I remember. Why did you revoke the change?
The newer version had problems, and I realized it was optimal to restore the downloadable to its former one.
Would you tell us the problems?
It didn't really feel right to add some new content and polishing, but the main issue was you couldn't progress in the TRUE ENDING. Meaning you cannot enter Purple's orb in the furnace.
Had a blast playing this one! (forgot to post when I first played it)
I was absolutely loved this game, I watched ManlyBaddassHero's playthrough. I must say I absolutely loved the music elements especially the worm zone. Would you ever upload the soundtracks on Youtube or Soundcloud?
Thank you very much : )) it used to be on YouTube but my former channel was deleted. A lot of the songs were uploaded on my old soundcloud which was also deleted. But the entire soundtrack is available for free on bandcamp : ) https://jimmymaslaki.bandcamp.com/album/happy-world-soundtrack
I'm guessing you already saw but just making sure.
Thank you very much! I'll make sure to check out your bandcamp. (^-^)
This game is quite charming! It reminds me of Petscop and LSD Dream Emulator. I did get quite the scare on my first playthrough. Overall, I really enjoyed playing this game, as well as your other works!
Thanks :)
This game fuckin rocks but I can't enter purple, is that intentional?
also by that I mean I try to get into purple (3rd furnace orb) and the screen does the transition flash, but I don't actually move
Thanks :) and that's weird, what version did you download? I've heard that the mac version is glitchy
I have the windows version, should I try redownloading the game again?
I'm sorry you're having this problem. Seems to be corrupted, I would try redownloading the game. Fortunately you don't have to restart, you should still have all your progress.
I downloaded it again and played it, and the same thing happened. Is that what you meant by redownloading?
I loved this game. I played it on my YouTube channel. Hope you don't mind!
got petscop vibe from this game, do you happen to know petscop?
Yes
Hey im in love with this game and the soundtrack is there a way i can buy the soundtrack
Hi, thank you! You can get the soundtrack for free here :)
wow thats really amazing the ost is so good i love it
can we do full screen??
Yes, you can do Alt+Enter to toggle full screen and also F4 I think
thanks!!
You're welcome!
Jimi Masuraki the troll :D
Alt+F4 closes the game, F4 fullscreens.
hello friend!! i just finished my first playthrough last night and it was very spooky, i love this. the writing is amazing and the aesthetic/art-style are right up my alley!! i do have kind of a silly question though, if u don't mind. is there a way to avoid making nunu cry? i love her so much : (
thank you! and yes, if you do the true ending, you can skip all world 3 missions which includes nunu. you can still visit her though
i see!! thank u so much for your zippy reply!!
no problem! i just got on the computer haha
Thank you :)
Hello, I can't seem to run the mac version, it says it's broken :(
So I haven't started this yet, but is this different from Happy Zone? Do I need to play one before the other or does it not matter?
Yes, it is different
No it does not matter which order you play it in. Have fun :)
I've played through world three, but now I only have access to the destruction ending. Is there a way to restart the game?
If you do that ending and open the game again it should have reset. If not, then you can restart it by going into app data and deleting the .HW files in C:\Users\Username\AppData\LocalLow\Jimmy Maslaki\HAPPY WORLD
Thank you, Mr Jim. However, I believe you are referring to the Windows version. Can I do this via apple?
Did A Full Playthrough This Game is a Lie. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLP2fvynMXDvTwkuhJCmQrz3pOPmpfqeKd
