Tonic Trouble is a 3D platforming video game by Ubisoft Montreal, first released in Europe on the PC in early 1999. The story follows the main character, Ed, after a magic potion spills on the Earth and causes vegetables to become living killers. The game was subsequently released on the Nintendo 64 in North America and Europe on 25 August and 24 October 1999 respectively, and to the North American PC market on 6 December 1999. A version of the game was released on the Game Boy Color in 2000, however this version was only available in Europe. Additionally, a beta version for the PC was released as Tonic Trouble: Special Edition, published by Guillemot. This version featured very different level designs and control schemes. It was given away by Compaq with new computers running Windows 98 in parts of Europe in mid-1999. A few differences are the additional guards not encountered in the Retail Version, larger and more open level designs, red spades instead of thermometers for health power ups, and the lack of a final boss.
