Maniac Mansion 3: Return of the meteor
Posted: Mon Oct 21, 2002 1:10 am
Okay, there hasn't been a Sequal to the hit game Day of the Tentacle ever, and there probably won't ever be, so I just thought up this idea:
In Maniac Mansion 3: Return of the Meteor, the Meteor from Maniac Mansion returns, but instead of possessing Dr. Fred, it possesses a Politition who's nickname is the Man with the silly pants. The Man with the Silly pants devises an Unbeatable plan to take over the world, by Burning pumpkin Patches, Pushing old Ladies down the stairs, running for President of USA, taking over Star Wars, and Inventing A Mindbender to make the leaders all stupid. So it's up to 4 kids to stop them.
The main Characters:
Jeff: Returning from Maniac Mansion, he returns to the Mansion (Still a Motel) to look for help when his car full of people breaks down in front of the Motel. He is then Drafted by Dr. Fred to stop an evil politition in his tracks and to destoy the meteor once and for all. He is dating another of the Main Characters called Kayla.
Wendy: Also returning from Maniac Mansion, Wendy lives off-campus with Jeff and Kayla. She is now a Journalist working for Zak McKraken's grotesque Editor and earning her Bachlorette's degree in her spare time. Like Zak McKraken, she has to travel the world to save it.
Kayla: A new character. She is the Older siter of Jason, and is Dating Jeff. She is earning a Masters Degree so she can Teach High school. She never knows when Jeff will ask the question...
Jason: Also a new character. Jason is Kayla's Younger Brother, but unlike the others, Jason can't leave the Motel, as he's too young to Go out on his own. (Is in 11th grade) Kayla and Jeff are supposed to watch him because his parents are out of the house. He calls the Meteor a "Crater Brain" and knows a little about computers.
NPCs:
Dr. Fred: Dr. Fred is the one who drafted the kids when they came looking for Help when their Car Broke down. He knew what had happened to the Man with the Silly pants, and thinks that he and the kids are the only ones who can stop him.
Green Tentacle: Green Tentacle Plays a Vital Role in saving the world from the Man with the Silly pants. It is who Told Dr. Fred about how the Man with the Silly pants found the Meteor, took it into the motel, and got possesed by it. Also, he thinks Jason should get his Saxophone back and play in his band.
Purple Tentacle: Purple Tentacle isn't evil in this one and wants to stop the Man with the Silly pants along with Dr. Fred. He comes up with the Diminulator later in the game, and warns them that it musn't fall into the wrong hands.
The other Tentacles: Dr. Fred created more tentacles in his sleep after he conquered his fear of finding a Monster in the safe. They are Friendly and energetic Beings who think Wendy is a "Hottie" and that Jeff should Marry Kayla...which could happen after college.
Dead Cousin Ted: Dead Cousin Ted plays a Vital Role in rescuing Dr. Fred from the IRS guys, who locked him in his room, bound him with red tape, and Tied him to his bed, like they did again.
Bad Guys:
The Meteor: The Meteor returns from Maniac Mansion and has taken over the Man with the Silly pants' body and plans to use the Man with the Silly pants to take over the world.
The man with the Silly pants: He was fed up with only appearing on C-Span at 3 in the morning. He then found the meteor and then the Meteor took over his body.
