Happy Studio

Happy Studio was a virtual world made by McDonald's and developed by Fuel Industries in 2011 and closed in 2015.

Game
The Game was simillar to Club Penguin, you create your own character, and have fun around with minigames, talk with people and add them, doing missions, and just having fun. In 2014, the game was losing popularity, but McDonalds still tried to keep it running.

Closure
In August of 2015, McDonald's announced that they will be shutting down Happy Studio in September of that same year. Kids were crying, that they will lose there Stars, (the game's virtual currency) Minigame and Mission progression, Houses and much more. And in September, the game was shut down and everything was gone, until November, when McDonald's announced there new mobile game with the same name, but it wasn't the same anymore.

Remake
In January of 2020 an user on YouTube called juleify announced in a comment that he is remaking the game with couple of friends on the video "Happy Studio 2012". (which is found on this wiki post above) He states: "To anyone interested in playing this game again, me and my friend are developing a remake of this game with additional features! More info about that is coming soon". Later a week ago, he commented on one of the Happy Studio's game's developer's video this question: "So does that mean you still have its source code and a playable version of it? I'm guessing since this was uploaded after the shutdown" They commented each other, until he announced yesterday that he got the source code and some assets from the developer, and he is reimplementing the assets into the game.

In July of 2020, his YouTube channel has been removed or terminated, and we don't know the reason, why.

In December of 2020, he re-appeared, and the Happy Studio community is trying to track him down.

On September 15, 2021, ZedKGaming (the writer of this wiki lol) has officially announced that he is remaking the game and it is actually happening. A Pre-Alpha is available on it's itch.io page, you can try it out right now!
