'''''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''. It was released for the Nintendo 64, PC and Game Boy Color in 1999.

==Plot==

The game follows the story of Ed, a small and clumsy member of a purple limbless alien species, who works as a janitor during a voyage through space, on a craft called ''The Albatross''. Ed is voiced by [[David Gasman]], who also voices [[Rayman]] in [[Rayman 2]], [[Rayman M]] and [[Rayman 3]]. During one shift, Ed comes across a strange can and drinks its contents. He doesn't like the taste, and spits the fluid out, causing any object it came to contact with to come to life, forcing him to throw it down a chute which sends it falling to Earth. The fluid's effects on the Earth's environment cause chaos, and the can falls into the hands of a Viking called Grogh, who becomes more powerful upon drinking from it.

Ed faces a trial in court, and as punishment for his carelessness, he is sent to Earth to clean up the mess. During his journey there, his own spaceship malfunctions and ends up crashing into a snowy mountainous area on Earth, which is now roaming with mutant killer vegetables and balloon sheep. Eventually he meets a doctor and his daughter, Suzy, who offer to help him by giving him weapons and powers in exchange for small things such as springs and propellers used by the Doc to build a machine.
