2. Detail

This article contains spoilers .

It directly or indirectly contains the plot, ending, and reversal elements of the work or character described in this document.

For most of the film, the ruler is King Candy , who is actually Turbo in disguise. After altering the code in an attempt to erase Vanellope ‘s code, he rules the Sugar Rush world, making himself king and turning Vanellope into a glitch (a type of error). And in order to maintain his power, King Candy creates a law that says Glitch cannot race. If Vanellope races and blinks due to a glitch, the people playing the game will think the game is broken and tell the arcade owner, and when that happens, the plug will be pulled and all the residents will be reduced to vagrants with nowhere to go, and the glitch will cause them to lose money in the game. Vanellope, unable to escape, instigates people by claiming that she will die forever.

But this is just a surface reason, and the real purpose he blocked Barnelopy is that when Vanellopy passes through the finish line, the game is reset and his identity is burned . So until Ralph first visited the game, he mobilized all the ways to prevent Barnelopy from racing.

Despite all the disturbances, Barnelopy is involved in the race with the help of Ralph and Felix, and King Candy tries to stop her by holding a cart in her cart. While King Candy wields the rod, attacks her and defends herself from the attack, she is nervous, glich, and the disguise of King Candy, who is blinked, reveals that his entity is turbo. The identity reveals Turbo turns the car upside down and tries to kill her. She manages to escape through Glich, and the turbo mistake in the cyberg’s open mouth and becomes a cyberg hybrid. As a cyberg, Turbo was the most powerful virus in the arcade, but he died of Ralph’s light in the light made on the mountain of Diet Cola. After the death of the turbo, Sugar Rush is originally co -gramed when Barnelopy passes through the finish line. She immediately regains her legitimate status as a princess, but decides to turn the government into “constitutional democracy” and instead becomes “king.”

3. official introduction

“This interactive racer was a breakout hit in American arcades when it was released in 1997. Ten sweet-styled racers drive their confectionery karts around a taffy track that weaves through the ever-changing environments of the island.”

4. game features

Sugar Rush is a kart racing game featuring gorgeous 3D graphics. It is very similar to many Mario Kart games, as you can get items like ‘power-ups’ during the game. As it is a racing game, the racers have to race on a track that passes through a landscape made of sweets, candies, and chocolate.

The speedway itself is filled with exciting twists and turns, such as Gumball Gorge and Cakeway. There are locations such as Diet Cola Mountain, King Candy’s Castle, and Sugar Rush Speedway. During a cyberg attack, the speedway is destroyed and returns to normal when the true ruler, Vanellope Von Schweetz, is revealed.

5. game character

5.1. playable character

Sugar Rush Racer

Sugar Rush Racers

There are lots of sweet and lovable racers for players to choose from.
Ralph refers to the racers as the “children of the candy corn”, referencing the 80s horror film Children Of The Corn. Each racer has a specific candy theme and a racing kart made entirely of candy, cookies, or other sweets. In the game, the racers seem to have established a sort of hierarchy that is determined by who is the best racer.

The characters, except Vanellope and the palette-swapped characters, show signs of some sort of xenophobia (an intense or irrational aversion or fear of foreigners), similar to the hostility towards outsiders in other games like Fix It Felix. They also show a strong aversion to imperfect or flawed programming, like Vanellope . This may be due to Turbo altering their programming code.

5.2. Palette Swap Characters

Recolor/Alternate Racers. In addition to the main racers that appear frequently, there are lesser-known racers in the Sugar Rush world that are simply recolors of some of the main racers. They are not playable in the browser-based version of the game. The names of these racers can be seen on the large screens in the background of some Sugar Rush scenes.

Citrusella Plugupucker (Purple/Dark Blue Jubilee Bing Bing Recolor)
Citrusella appears on the character select screen, and even has her own pose.

Thorvald’s Butterbutter (Orange/Gold Minty Jockey Recolor)
Nugestia bumblestain (pink/white Adorabeezel Winterpop recolor)
Sticky Whipsnit (Teal/Teal Minty Jockey Recolor)

minty sakura
Also, there is Minty Sakura, who only appears in the Japanese version of the movie. Many people thought she was a redesign of Minty Jockey or Candlehead, and Minty Sakura was added to replace Minty Jockey in the Japanese version and was added in the Japanese dub. She is designed with an overall Asian theme, wearing a kimono-like dress with leggings and Japanese Pocky candy hanging from her hair like chopsticks. Minty Sakura drives the same car as Minty Jockey, but she is technically a completely different character. It is also known that Candlehead was originally Minty Jockey due to Minty Sakura’s similar clothing design.
When Minty Sakura was added to the Sugar Rush contestants list, the animators had to remove Minty Jaki from the international versions and place Minty Sakura in the Japanese version (although Minty Jaki can still be seen in some scenes).

6. interesting places

King Candy ‘s Castle: Home to King Candy , his little sidekick Sour Bill, and his two donut cops Winchell and Duncan. It also contains a hidden room that leads to the game’s code, where it is discovered that King Candy intentionally created Vanellope ‘s errors. The castle later becomes Vanellope ‘s new home when she reclaims the throne.

Candy Cane Forest: A forest filled with red and white striped peppermint trees. Vanellope ‘s favorite place, and where she first met Ralph. Note that the double-striped branches disappear when stepped on. There are Raffy Taffy vines and Nesquik Sand Pit, where Felix and Calhoun almost died.

Diet Coke Mountain: A soda bottle-shaped volcano with pits of boiling hot cola instead of lava. Occasionally there are mentos stalactites that fall from the roof of the volcano, causing carbonated eruptions. Diet Coke Mountain was the home of Vanellope, who lived in a secret, unprogrammed lair within the mountain before moving into King Candy ‘s old castle . It is also where Ralph taught Vanellope how to drive. There is an unfinished racetrack within the mountain, suggesting that the mountain was intended as a bonus level but was never completed by the game’s creators . [1] Outside the mountain is where Ralph destroyed Vanellope’s cart.

Sugar Rush Speedway: A scenic race track that traverses all the environments that make up Sugar Rush. Contains power-ups and traps, as are found in most racing games.

Kart Factory: This is where all the racers’ karts are made. Ralph and Vanellope sneak into the factory to make a kart for Vanellope. The factory is a ‘mini-game’ within the game, where the player must create their own kart in one minute. The mini-game consists of three parts: mixing ingredients, baking, and decorating.

Mixing: Players sort through ingredients, placing the correct ones in bowls and the bad ones (like dirty underwear and fire extinguishers) in the trash can.

Baking: The player uses an air pump to heat a large oven to the proper temperature. When Vanellope and Ralph were making their kart, Ralph broke the pump and had to blow air into it with his mouth to get it to the right temperature.

Decoration: Players use their guns to shoot targets in the decoration dispenser and add items to design their personal kart.

Fungeon: A fun prison (Fun+Dungeon) that King Candy refers to with a pun, aka “Fungeon”. In the dubbed version, it is called “Funny Room” because it is a funny prison . It is located in King Candy ‘s castle. Vanellope and Felix were once imprisoned here.

Junkyard: A place to store broken, worn-out, and discarded karts. Vanellope builds a pedal-powered kart called the ‘Lickety-Split’ out of old parts here, but other racers show up and destroy it all.

7. digression

The original production name of ‘Sugar Rush’ was “Candy Hollow”.
The game was released new to arcades (as a plug-in) in 1997.

Sugar Rush was also the name of a canceled massively multiplayer online battle game developed by Klei Entertainment.

The Sugar Rush Speedway machine was a twin cabinet, two-player race game in the vein of Outrun or Cruisin’ USA. By the time Wreck-It Ralph 2: Breaking Out of the Internet came out, half of the machines were gone, leaving just one player.

Although only one stadium is featured in the film, it is possible that other racetracks exist.

The lighting team says rendering the candy to look realistic and delicious was one of the most difficult tasks in the entire film. They had to create candy models of everything, including the scene where Ralph’s plane crashes into the icing, so they could animate it.

The arcade machine has the names of the 11 main racers written across the top of the screen. However, they are referred to by their Beta names. There are Rumple (Gloyd), Peterbelly (Rancis), Emmareld (Minty), and Merfus (Swizzle).

Lorelai Bove, a visual development artist, was one of the key figures in Sugar Rush’s candy world. She revealed that much of the inspiration for the game’s design came from the director’s trip to Barcelona and seeing Antoni Gaudí’s architecture.

The world of Sugar Rush is based on Japanese candy because the animators wanted to create a different kind of candy land than what people usually expect.

The game’s title is also the Japanese title of the film, as well as the AKB48 song that plays during the film’s ending credits and when Ralph first appears in the game. It is also the name of a browser-based game on the Disney website.

Sugar Rush is the most prominent location throughout the film and series. As mentioned, most of the events take place in Sugar Rush.

Also, the Japanese title for Wreck-It Ralph when it was released in Japan was “Sugar Rush”, because much of the film’s plot takes place in Sugar Rush.

Sugar Rush’s gameplay and some of its tracks appear to be inspired by racing games such as Mario Kart, F-Zero, and the Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing series.

Sugar Rush also has several references to the Mario Kart series.

The Marshmallow referee and cameraman are similar in function and behavior to Lakitu from the Mario Kart series.

The ‘power-up’ items found on Sugar Rush race tracks are similar to those in Mario Kart (Sweet Seekers are the equivalent of Red Koopa shells).

The track in the final section of the Random Roster Race (inside the cave) is similar to Rainbow Road.

Sugar Rush, released in 1997, also references Mario Kart 64.

The artwork on the Sugar Rush arcade machine is similar to the artwork seen on the 2005 Mario Kart Arcade GP cabinet.

The character select screen is similar to that of Mario Kart 64, but there are nine racers instead of eight.

The game “Sugar Rush” does not exist in the real world. The development team took inspiration from many existing game concepts and combined them to create an entirely new experience. This allowed Disney more control over the story since they were not limited to existing game worlds. However, Disney developed a browser-based version of the game using the Unity engine, but did not include Vanellope or Recolor Racers. At least one Sugar Rush arcade cabinet has been built, but the game is not playable and is merely a prop. The prop cabinet is based on the Fast and the Furious arcade game by Raw Thrills. Raw Thrills later tweeted that they had no affiliation with the prop.

The world of Sugar Rush Race is very similar to the Mushroom Kingdom from the Mario series.

Sugar Rush is proven to have been developed by Tobikomi. Near the end of the movie, when Ralph says that Vanellope likes him, the second machine ends up saying “Tobikomi Presents”, and if you look closely at the marquee on the cabinet, the logo is there too.

The movie site claims there are only 11 racers. This is incorrect. Including the recolors, there are 15 racers.

A handheld racing game called Sugar Rush is mentioned on ABC’s General Hospital, but it’s not yet confirmed whether it’s the same game.

Taffyta, Candlehead, Gloyd, Crumbelina, Adorabeezzle, Nugecia, Jubilina, and Citrusella are the only racers who have numbers on their karts. Taffyta is #1, Adorabeezzle and Nugecia are #2, and Jubilina and Citrusella are #5. Candlehead is #7, Crumbelina is #8, and Gloyd is #13. Vanellope’s concept art design for Lickity Split shows her kart with a #11, implying that Vanellope may carry the number #11.

When the Sugar Rush racers throw their gold coins to enter the Random Roster Race, the announcer is heard reading the name “Adorabeezle Winterpop” for the third time, after Taffyta Muttonfudge, and “Crumbelina Di Caramello” is the fifth, after Gloyd Orangeboar. However, when the roster board is next shown, Crumbelina’s name is printed on the third line, and Adorabeezle’s name is printed on the fifth line. The order on the board can be considered correct, as not only does the same order reappear as the race begins, but Crumbelina is also seen lining up right behind Taffyta, just before they begin throwing coins into the pot.

If you look down at the entrance to Sugar Rush after Ralph is lifted by King Candy , you can see that the path between the three characters and the Cybergs is empty. However, once Ralph escapes King Candy ‘s grasp and Vanellope begins to approach Ralph, you can see Calhoun’s discarded weapon lying on the ground. From a distance, you can see something distinctly black on the rainbow bridge.

The Sugar Rush racers’ bodies have different proportions than more human characters like Calhoun. The racers’ heads are larger than their bodies and their feet are relatively small, typical of the “chibi” aesthetic they belong to.

Sugar Rush is based on candy, and the racers follow the theme of the game. They have candy-themed appearances and costumes, and their karts are made of candy or similar food related to the theme. For example, Snowana’s hair resembles a scoop of snow cones, and she has a hair pick that resembles a wooden ice cream scoop.

Like the Strawberry Shortcake character, the character’s name is also related to candy in some way.
Also, most racers are women.

While the racers are paying their fees, the names of the Palette Swaps are not called. However, the other racers do pay their fees. King Candy is 1st, Taffyta is 2nd, Adorabeezle is 3rd, Gloyd is 4th, Crumbelina is 5th, Minty is 6th, Snowanna is 7th, Rancis is 8th, Jubileena is 9th, Swizzle is 10th, Candlehead is 11th, and Vanellope is 12th. If you look at the board, it says there are 16 racers. However, 12 racers are called.

The Kart Factory’s Go-Kart Selection icon shows photos of go-karts that didn’t make it into the final film.

One of the paintings in the painting shows a clown riding a racing car with a similar expression to Turbo.

Fix-it Felix Jr. and Sugar Rush both appear to have been created by the fictional game company TobiKomi, whose name means “jump” or “dive” in Japanese.

During the Cy-Bug attack scene, a sign leading to a portal between Sugar Rush and Game Central Station reads, “Parting is such a sweet sorrow. “, a reference to Shakespeare’s tragedy Romeo and Juliet.

Sugar Rush is similar to Sweet Mountain from the 2010 game Sonic Colors.

If Sugar Rush had been a real racing game from 1997, it would have had fewer textures and less detail than what you see in the movie, and the models would have been blocky and had a lower polygon ratio.

Disney Infinity 3.0 features a track inspired by Sugar Rush called Sugar Rush Raceway.

In Disney Infinity, players can use two Power Discs (King Candy’s Dessert Topping and Sugar Rush Sky) to transform their Toy Box into a Sugar Rush-like experience.

The theme of this game is similar to the popular puzzle game ‘Candy Crush’.

In the sequel, during Ralph and Vanellope’s argument, she says she is “one of the 16 racers”, but is actually one of 15, implying that Felix and Calhoun adopted her along with the others, but she had no idea about it.

Vanellope is the only character in Sugar Rush to have seen Turbo, the true identity of King Candy, in person. However, she seems to know nothing about Turbo’s origins, much less recognize him. On the other hand, most of the inhabitants of the video game world are aware of Turbo, as evidenced by Ralph and Felix. Therefore, it is unknown whether Vanellope and the other inhabitants of the game saw Turbo before he usurped her throne and locked all of her memories, though another possible theory suggests that Turbo may have disappeared many years before the Sugar Rush game console was first plugged into an arcade, which would explain why the girl is unaware of the rogue racer.

As for the above, the actual RoadBlasters game came out in 1987, so the events of Turbo invading the Road Blasters in the game probably took place in 1987 or 1988. Sugar Rush Speedway is said to have been released 15 years before the movie (i.e. 1997), so it’s likely that the characters don’t know about Turbo or his game jumps.

Sugar Rush Racers has a new book series coming soon, including The Sweet Outdoors and Victory is Sweet by Shari Simpson. The books are scheduled to be released on June 6, 2023.

Since Sugar Rush itself is a Japanese game with a notable chibi aesthetic, it’s possible that the characters are of Japanese ethnicity, but the characters speak with American accents, likely because the individual Sugar Rush cabinets featured in the film (and by extension Litwak’s arcade) are located in the United States.
