ToonTorial - Dane1980

So you think you're Toon enough, do you? Let me introduce myself, I'm Dippy Drippy Dizzyquack, and with the help of my sister Doctor Daffodil Dizzyquack, I will lead you through the steps necessary to get you Toonified and ready to go.


Pictured below is where you'll make your Toons and choose which of your Toons you would like to play. Take note that the color of the square you choose will be the color of that Toon's house at their estate. Click a square and let's begin!



The first thing you must decide is your gender. Do you want to be a girl or a boy? The two are very similar in Toontown, except girls get eyelashes and skirts.



The second step is to create your toon. There are several different animals to choose from and each animal also has a few facial variations. This is also where you'll choose your body. You can be tall and thin, average, short and chubby, or any combination of the choices.



Next you will choose your color. There are several shades of numerous colors and you can even mix and match with a different color on your head, torso, and legs.



Now it's time to pick some clothes! Shirts and shorts for boys, shirts, shorts, and skirts for the girls. There are many styles and colors to choose from, so shop around.



Finally you get to name your toon. Your toon can have a title, a first name, and a last name. Just scroll through and highlight the ones you like. You can also type your own name, but that must be approved by the Toontown Council.



Have fun making your toon! With so many options, this is definitely an opportunity to express your individuality. When you finish, click the checkmark in the lower right corner and head to the Toontorial.


It's now time to follow Daffodil through the Toon-torial. Here she is meeting Tutorial Tom, he'll help her learn about Gags and Cogs.


Listen to Tom as he tells Daffodil about the Cogs, evil robots that wander the streets of Toontown causing mayhem!


Ah, but here is the secret to defeating the Cogs and thwarting their evil plans, Gags!


Tom also gives Daffodil her Laff Meter. Cogs will try to take away her Laff Points, so she should be careful. Daffodil can refill her Laff Meter by finding Treasures in the Playgrounds or when she turns in her Task to an HQ Officer.


Oh no! Tom has spotted a Cog! Let's follow Daffodil outside to complete her first Task.


She runs out of the shop and approaches the Cog to start the battle. She is only armed with two gags, but don't worry.  They will both hit and it will be enough to destroy the cog.

After every cog battle, toons will do a victory dance.  Skill points are awarded and toontask progress will be updated. Daffodil has now earned one point for each gag she successfully used. A level one gag will only give one point per successful attack.  As she uses them more often, she'll get more powerful gags that earn more points per successful attack.  After 10 points, she will earn the level 2 gag for that type.  The amount of points you need to reach the next level will increase greatly as you advance.



Tom pops up for a final goodbye and lets Daffodil know to turn her task in to Headquarters. When Daffodil turns in her task, HQ Harry gives her a Shticker Book which appears in the lower right hand corner. This book will help her keep track of her life in Toontown.  You may also notice Daffodil's laff was completely restored.  This happens any time you turn in completed toontasks.



Daffodil opens the shticker book and sees a map of Toontown. Once Daffodil visits a place, the clouds will clear to reveal it's location.



She turns the page and sees her gags. She doesn't have any right now. She needs to get jellybeans to buy some! An easier way to see your gags is to press and hold the HOME key.



Her new Task is to ride the trolley. This will earn her jellybeans to buy gags. Turning the page shows her where she can see the toontasks she has been assigned.  An easier way to see your toontasks is to press and hold the END key.



On her way to pass through the tunnel to find the trolley, Daffodil meets Flippy. He is going to teach her how to use the Speedchat button so she can communicate with other toons. If you are a cat and say "Toontastic!" at this point to Flippy on Halloween, you will turn into a black cat! This is permanent! He also explains there is a button that will allow her to use her keyboard to chat, but only with her Secret Friends.



 Now Daffodil can pass through the tunnel to Toontown Central.  Do not be tempted to wander around just yet.  It's best to get the toontorial done as soon as you can.  Daffodil is directed town the trolley.  Run up to the trolley and hop onboard.  It will take you to one of a variety of trolley games available in Toontown.  See the Trolley Games article for more details on the individual games.

After Daffodil completes her trolley game she is awarded with some jellybeans.  Now she can buy some more gags in the Gag Shop. Clerk Clara is going to teach her about gags and give a sneak preview of the higher level gags.

Now she needs to exit the gag shop and turn in her task to an HQ Officer at the Headquarters in the playground. Once inside Daffodil hands in her task and is immediately given another task.  She needs to find an eraser that the cog have stolen from Headquarters.

Daffodil needs to head through a tunnel and find a cog to get back that eraser. She finds a cog and destroys him.

During her mission she discovers toon gags and cog attacks can sometimes miss.  She also sees cogs of various levels.  The higher the level, the more powerful the cog making it more difficult to destroy.

Finally, she finds the eraser!

Once back at the playground, she heads inside HQ to return the eraser and the HQ Officer refills her Laff Meter for a job well done!

The HQ Officer tells Daffodil how important it is to have friends. If you already managed to find a friend before this point, you will not receive this task.

There are two ways to make friends. One way is to click on any other toon. It will bring up their profile.  Click the Friends button to request becoming a friend. Also, she can click on the icon in the upper right corner of her screen to open her friend list and click the New Friend button. She is then told to click on any toon she wants to be friends with. It's usually best to find people entering the Headquarters as they may have also just received this mission as well.  Normally, you shouldn't just ask anyone to be your friend.  It's more polite to get to know them first.

The HQ Officer informs Daffodil that she has a house. She tells her about Clarabelle's Cattlelog.

When she clicks on Clarabelle's picture in the upper right corner, she is teleported to the estate where her very own house is. Inside her house she finds her telephone to call Clarabelle. Her first cattlelog is full of furniture, emotions, speedchat phrases, wallpapers, floors, and clothing. She can order gifts for her friend as well as buying things for herself. After hanging up the phone, she looks around her house. She sees her jellybean bank where her beans are safely stored. There is also a wardrobe where she keeps her clothing and changes outfits. Read the article on Clarabelle's Cattlelog and Estates for more details.

Outside her house is the mailbox where all her cattlelog items will be delivered. After using her Shticker Book to go back to the playground, she returns to HQ to let an Officer know she completed her task by calling Clarabelle. The officer awards her with a 1 point Laff boost on her Laff Meter.

Now Daffodil has completed the Toontorial and will continue completing tasks to help prevent the cogs from taking over Toontown. Toontown is always looking for help in defeating the cogs. Are you Toon enough?
