Mondomedia.com Description

It takes guts to play Strandead the new Happy Tree Friends HTML5 game! Do you have what it takes?

Prologue

Once you click on the "Play" button, you are introduced to a prologue similar to that of a comic book. In it, Sniffles, Giggles, Lumpy, Lifty, Shifty, Flaky, Flippy and Handy are all stuck on a deserted island. Sniffles then comes up with the idea to launch themselves across the sea in order to get to safer land by using a giant slingshot and a fire extinguisher as a jet pack. Once they gather all the necessary equipment, everybody looks over to Giggles, on whom they suggest as using for their test subject.

Ending

To see the ending, you need to launch Giggles 3,000 feet. Once you do, Giggles, with her body painfully ripped in half and one of her eyes out of its socket, finally washes ashore to safer land. Giggles is happy at first, when suddenly, The Mole arrives for a warm day at the beach, and stakes an umbrella in her right eye, killing her.

Obstacles

Seagulls and Pelicans

Seagulls and pelicans will make Giggles bounce off of them, keeping her in the air.

Satellites and Planes

Hitting either a satellite or a plane will stun Giggles, preventing her from bouncing on any seagull or pelican under her, preventing her from using her boost.

Buoys

Hitting a buoy will instantly kill Giggles, as hitting one will make her intestines wrap around it.

Water

Hitting the water on the bottom will add further injuries to Giggles. If Giggles can no longer boost herself, she ends up skipping along in the water until she ends up getting eaten by a shark.

Tips

  • Use your boost wisely, as you only have a limited amount of it. Use your boost when you can't reach a seagull/pelican in front of you or when you bounce off the water, as bouncing off the water won't bounce you high enough to reach a pelican.

Text Quotes

There are quotes shown after Giggles' death, which depends on the distance Giggles traveled. Also, Sniffles will be shown holding an organ depending on the same factor (as well as a bad pun).

Trivia

  • The title of this game is based on the word "Stranded", Which fits since the Happy Tree Friends are stranded on an island, prior to Happy Trails Pt. 2: Jumping the Shark.
  • This is the first HTF arcade game to be in HTML5 format. It's also the first arcade game to be available as an iPhone app.
  • This is the second HTF-related iPhone app, after Slap Happy.
  • Giggles' death involving the buoy is similar to Cuddles' death involving the shovel in Hare Trigger. Both have their intestines wrapped around.
  • The shark's appearance is similar to the one in Petunia's Summer Smoochie and Wipe Out, but it's gray in color.
  • This game is based on the episode Happy Trails Pt. 2: Jumping the Shark.
    • It might be an alternate plot to the aforementioned episode. The original had Giggles dead before Lifty and Shifty showed up, but in the game, Lifty and Shifty are both shown while Giggles is still alive. Weirdly enough, The Mole appeared in the epilogue, considering the fact that he was shown in the bus prior to Jumping the Shark and got involved in the crash.
  • The idea of using a fire extinguisher as a jet pack might be a reference to the 2008 Disney/Pixar film, WALL-E.
  • Flippy appears in this game, yet he doesn't flip out (he wasn't really involved with the entire game, as he only appeared in the intro sequence).
  • The app version of this game is only compatible with iOS 6 and later.
