'''''Tonic Trouble''''' is a game that was developed by [[UbiSoft]] Montréal, initially to test the 3D engines used by ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]''. It is notable for featuring limbless characters akin to the earlier ''[[Rayman]]'' games although it is actually set on Earth; in fact, one of these characters appears as a cameo at a very late point in ''Rayman 2'', along with a Rayman cameo in ''Tonic Trouble'''s end credits. It was released for the Nintendo 64, PC and Game Boy Color (only in Europe) in 1999.
