Radon: In the Caves rough draft

Post by kainenable »

ROUGH DRAFT: In the Caves

DIALOG UPON ENTERING

NARRATOR: It's cold in here! Maybe it would've been wise to bring some Thermoweave Underwear
with you.

If Timer = 1 minute then
NARRATOR: It's getting mighty cold in here, Roger Wilco. Not even your Starcon standard issue
FreezeFree suit is keeping you comfy. Better move.

If Timer = 2 minute then
ROGER: AAAAAAGH!
ROGER freezes to an icicle.
NARRATOR: Well done, Roger! You've become a janitor-in-an-icecube...permanently!
DEATH MESSAGE: Thanks for playing Space Quest: Vohaul Strikes Back, you really broke the ice!

--

LOOK: Ice Wall
Narrator: That's an ice wall. You'll see plenty of these on Radon, Rog.

LOOK TWICE: Ice Wall
Roger: It's that ice wall. Weren't you paying attention?

TOUCH: Ice Wall
Narrator: The ice wall feels cool to the touch. After all, it IS ice.

SNIFF: Ice Wall
Narrator: Add some grape juice, and a cone, and you've got a tasty
treat!

LICK: Ice Wall
Roger: AAAAARGH!
Narrator: Oh no.
Roger: UUUUUUGH!
Narrator: This always happens. Everyone licks the ice wall here on Radon.
Roger: OOOOOPH!
Narrator: Please, Roger. Be a REAL citizen and STOP LICKING ICE WALLS!
Narrator: I'll let you off this time, but next time, Wilco.
REWIND to before you licked the Ice Wall.

LICK TWICE: Ice Wall
Roger: UUUUURGH!
Narrator: Sorry, Roger. You've licked it one time too many. YOU'RE STAYING THERE!
Screen fades to black
Narrator: Time passes...
Screen goes back to ice caves
Roger is an icicle with his tongue stuck to the wall
Death Message: I warned you not to lick that wall, but DID YOU LISTEN? No! You had to do it AGAIN!

--

HAND: Pool
Roger dives into the cold pool.
Roger surfaces as an ice cube.
Death Message: Thanks for playing Space Quest: Vohaul Strikes Back. You've really broke the ice!
or
Roger dives into the pool...but lands in a giant cave anchovy's mouth.
Anchovy: CHOOOOOMP!
Death Message: You've made a good meal for the anchovy, shark prey.

--

TONGUE: Pool
Roger takes a sip of the cold pool
Roger: AAAAGH!
Narrator: DANG YOU WILCO! STOP LICKING COLD THINGS WITH YOUR TONGUE!
Death Message: First the wall, now the pool?
or
Roger takes a sip of the...giant anchovy?
Anchovy: CHOOOOMP!
Death Message: You've made a good meal for the anchovy, shark prey.

--

LOOK: Pool
Narrator: The shimmering pool of liquid crystallis makes you want to just
jump in, or give it a lick to replenish your thirst.
Narrator: Maybe it would be wisest if you didn't do either of those things,
and instead just walk away from the pool without minding any business about
it.

SNIFF: Pool
Narrator: The smell of ice-cool, mountain-fresh water tempts you to take
a drink.
Narrator: But I'm the narrator, and narrator says
you can only do that by licking the pool itself.

--

If Roger reaches end of cave then
Spewter slogs in
Narrator: Holy cow! It's a slimy Radonian Spewter! One of the most poisonous
creatures on Radon! You found that out by reading The Creature And I.

LOOK: Spewter
Narrator: It's a Spewter, by the looks of it. You don't want to see these
guys. They're so poisonous even holding your nose won't work against
them.

SNIFF: Spewter
Narrator: Yuck!
Roger's face turns green and he falls on the floor, then he stands back up.
Narrator: You got lucky this time.
SNIFF TWICE: Spewter
Roger: kaaaaaaaahgghghghgh
Roger falls flat on the floor.
Narrator: This time you weren't so lucky to get close enough to these guys.
Death Message: Hopefully, Spewters don't eat janitors...at least no janitors
I know that survived.

--

LICK: Spewter
Narrator: YOU ARE A SICK JANITOR!
Narrator: The price is too ugly, I'm not going to try and let you do that.

HAND: Spewter
Narrator: YOU ARE A SICK JANITOR!
Narrator: The price is too ugly, I'm not going to try and let you do that.

GIVE: Spewter: Leftover Sandwich
Roger tosses the sandwich to the Spewter.
Spewter: Mmmmm!
Spewter munches the sandwich then leaves the cave.

Am I the only one who thinks that we should remove the oppertunity to avoid dying by licking the cave wall?

how about if he licks the wall, he sticks there for a amount of time, then he's released. nothing harmless, but nothing you'd want to do again.

Also he shouldnt freeze to death because he is already wearing his Thermoweave (TM) underwear.
