Tonic Trouble (Nintendo 64)

Tonic Trouble is one of the more stranger outings of Ubi Soft, featuring an janitor named Ed, a tonic-enhanced viking named Grögh, and a very polluted Earth.

Although developed by a different Ubi Soft studio, it was openly cut from the same cloth as Rayman 2 and initially served as its sister game on both PC and the Nintendo 64. On the surface, the only differences between the two are the introduction cutscenes and the controls.

Fucking state is:%d

This text can be found at 0xF3AD0:
