This game is still in the very early stages of development, so you may experience glitches, and the server may be down sometimes. Currently, it does not work in Firefox. There will be many more updates to the game such as more items and graphics :)

Smilers Takeover

This is a multiplayer-only game where one ore more people navigate a level (the players), and an unlimited number of other people (the smilers) help build the level they're playing. As a smiler, you can choose to either help or hinder the player as they try to navigate this chaotic mess :)

How To Play As A Smiler

Click "Join Game", and click on one of the available games. Then enter your name and color. Your name will and color will show up when you place blocks.

Once in the game, you will see a level and a person (that's the player). You can navigate the camera around the level using the arrow keys. On the right side, there will be a panel with several resources types (Happy, Greedy, Energetic, and Silly). Use the + and - next to them to assign mood to them and make them go up. A bar will start filling which will increase those resources. The more mood allocated. The faster they'll increase.

You'll also see several boxes below this. These are objects you can place in the level. Hover over them with the mouse to see what they do. Each object requires a certain amount of resource to use. Select one, and place it in the level (assuming you have the resources to place it). You can also create effects that will change other things such as turning the player into a clown or causing them to lag :)

How To Be A Player

Click "Create Game", then choose a name for the game. Pretty simple. Once in the game, you can move left and right with either 'A' and 'D', or the 'left' and 'right' arrows. You can also jump using 'W', 'space bar', or the 'up' arrow. There is also a panel on the right with the tabs 'Player', 'Settings', and 'Smilers'.

Hammers allow you to destroy objects those pesky smilers place. Once the game has started, you'll notice the bar in the 'Player' tab start going up. This gathers more hammers that you can use.  To throw a hammer, right click somewhere in the level.

The 'Settings' tab allows you to change the settings of the game. You can change resource gathering rates as well as move cooldowns. Experiment with these and see which settings you like best. The 'Smilers' tab shows a list of all smilers who have joined the game at some point.

If the game mode allows multiple players, you'll be asked if you want to be either a player or smiler. While players slots are limited, there are an unlimited number of smilers :)

Standard Modes

The new "standard modes" allow you to be both the player and the smiler :O Unlike the smiler modes, these games have a limited number of people, but they are better if you have fewer people around :)
