'''''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 crusade through space. During one shift, he 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. | |||
Revision as of 21:59, 1 December 2008
My name is Stacey, and I'm a sysop. :) I come from the United Kingdom, and have been a Rayman fan for over 8 years, starting in 1999 round about when Rayman 2 was released. Rayman 2 on the Sega Dreamcast was the first Rayman game I've played, and though I was confused by the odd dialogue, I played the game religiously. I was so into the series back then, in 2001 I got a PS2 with Rayman Rev and M, though everyone pointed out that Rayman Rev was the same game as R2!
List of Rayman games I own
- Rayman 1 (PSOne, PC [the stinky Focus version that has no music. Only just found out about that today :/], GBC)
- Rayman 2 (Dreamcast, PSOne)
- Rayman Revolution (PS2)
- Rayman M (PS2, PC)
- Rayman 3 (PS2, GBA)
- Rayman Junior (PSOne)
- Rayman Rush (PSOne)
- Maths and English with Rayman (PC). This is just a PC version of Rayman Junior.
- Rayman Raving Rabbids (GBA, Wii, DS)
- Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge (GBA)
List of Rayman products I have
