Community sources, clearly labelled

Character rosters, level editor parameters and the behaviour of individual items are described using the community-maintained Happy Wheels Wiki. Pages that lean on it say so, and we avoid repeating any figure that only the wiki states and nothing else supports.

History and context sources

• Wikipedia: Jim Bonacci — original release dates for the browser, iOS and Android versions
• Mainstream games coverage used only for the Steam launch and wishlist reporting, linked inline where cited.

Video

The site embeds one video, and it is the official one: the Happy Wheels trailer published on the game's own Steam store page. It is loaded on demand when a visitor presses play, and it is served from Valve's own video CDN. No third-party or community channel is embedded, because no official Happy Wheels YouTube channel exists to verify against.

All images on this site are screenshots and the trailer thumbnail published on the Happy Wheels Steam store page. They are credited throughout to Jim Bonacci / Fancy Force and are used to identify and discuss the game. The files were resized and converted to WebP for performance; their content was not altered.

Source classification

Official material settles product facts. Community material describes observable gameplay and is labelled as such. Player reports are presented as reports, never as confirmed behaviour.
