An Abnormal Adventure - An OotS-style interactive comic

[SinisterPenguin]

Welcome to An Abnormal Adventure, an interactive webcomic.



[B]How this comic works:
Essentially, this comic follows a single main character--that you choose, see below--whose actions are controlled by the audience. After every update, you are given the opportunity to post what it is you want the character to do at that point in time. If I choose to use your command, then the next update will feature the character performing this action. I choose which command to use pretty much by how entertaining I find it/how useful it is. Do note, however, that the number of people that want to take a certain course of action does have an affect on how likely I am to choose that action.

Now onto the comic:

First, you must select your character. (Note that this is one option I will choose based on how many votes each character gets. Otherwise it would be pretty pointless.) You have five options:

John Steele, cybernetic assassin.
http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/cyborg.png


Nigo Mulark, wandering swordsman.
http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/swordsman2.png

Leepha Bazar, champion of the gods.
http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/champion.png

Dave Lawson, mildly insane scientist.
http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/scientist.png

And finally, Blue, anthropomorphic personification of the color blue.
http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/blue.png

Who will you choose?

[CrimsonAngel]

Blue would be cool, but I can't see much of a story from her...

I'll go with Leepha.

[Arti3]

I'll second Leepha

[John Cribati]

I'd go for the mildly insane scientist.

[Green-Shirt Q]

I would like to know slightly more about them. I am sorta torn between Dave Lawson, mildly insane scientist or the personification of of the colour blue. I do want to know hoe blue can be a personality, although now that I think about it it's probably just being sad (being so blue, getting the blues).

So right now I'm thinking of Dave since I don't really like angsty characters.

[smuchmuch]

I'll think I'll go with Blue just for the oddity/absurdity value.

[Keris]

Another vote for Dave Lawson, mildly insane scientist. I was tempted by Blue, but while playing as a Hooloovoo might be interesting, I think an insane character is more suited to having his actions controlled by an assorted conglomerate of internet denizens. :smalltongue:

[Felyndiira]

A vote for Leepha, championplot chewtoy of the Godsplaygrounders' ever-changing whims.

[MethosH]

"Dave Lawson, mildly insane scientist."^4

[Traker]

I totally go Blue

[someonenonotyou]

Blue

Thought Dave would be my second choice

[Mina Kobold]

Blue would be cool, but I can't see much of a story from her...

I'll go with Leepha.

You've got a point there, I'll vote for Leepha too.

Blue is cool, though.

[Cizak]

Aw, come on! Noone for Nigo Mulark? You guys got no taste :smalltongue:

One vote for Nigo!

[-skimmer-]

I vote for Leepha:smallwink:

Also, isn't sentient hue of color blue a direct reference to a joke from certain TV series?:smallamused:

[Ichneumon]

I vote for Leepha:smallwink:

Also, isn't sentient hue of color blue a direct reference to a joke from certain TV series?:smallamused:

I thought it was a reference to the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

[-skimmer-]

I thought it was a reference to the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

Ah, true....I wasn't sure where I actualy heard it as 3 other shows came into my mind:smallredface:

[Almighty Salmon]

My vote goes to Dave Lawson.

[Mad Mask]

Another vote for Dave Lawson.

[Darklord Xavez]

One vote from each of my personalities for Nigo.
-Xavez
Edit: Counting the other one, that's two so far (86 and on-half if each of my personalities gets a vote though).

[Grim ranger]

Another vote for Nigo. I just happen to like swordsmen :smallbiggrin:

[Neopolis]

Blue! Go with blue!

[BRC]

Only SCIENCE can save us now.

SCIENCE!
Dave Lawson.

[Fay Graydon]

John Steele...
Because I like how his robo arm is drawn... :smallbiggrin:

[SinisterPenguin]

Alright, then. The votes have been counted. Dave is the winner. Now...let's begin!

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa1.png

Your name is Dave Lawson. You are a mildly insane scientist. Not a mad scientist, mind you, just mildly insane. It's something of a sore point.

Currently you are inside your laboratory. Surrounding you are various experiments, including your currently broken robot assistant, Boxer, a Transmogrifier, a piece of scrap metal, various chemicals, and a Quantum Thing. Nearby is a door. At this moment in time your are contemplating life. You are not entirely sure why.

What will you do?

[Green-Shirt Q]

What will I do?

I would try to fix my robot assistant, I suppose. Then, I would recieve a call to go on an adventure, something that needs to be done. An epic adventure with great storytelling. Maybe Dave's girlfriend has been kidnapped by aliens needed Dave to rescue her I dunno.

Yeah, I'm not particularly sure that just throwing us a protagonist, a few objects and the question of WHAT WOULD YOU DO is the best way to tell a story, but we'll do it your way, I suppose.

[CrimsonAngel]

Strip. Now.

[MethosH]

Lets fix Boxer and RENAME him to Carlos, The Robot.

[Arti3]

Chemicals and metal into quantum thing, shake. Pour into transmogrifier and feed whatever comes out to Carlos Boxer.

[BRC]

What will I do?

I would try to fix my robot assistant, I suppose. Then, I would recieve a call to go on an adventure, something that needs to be done. An epic adventure with great storytelling. Maybe Dave's girlfriend has been kidnapped by aliens needed Dave to rescue her I dunno.

Interactive comics tend to work that way.


Anyway, you're lab is insufficient. Fixing your robot assistant would be a good start, but you need a big board on which you can scribble equations, some beeping computers, and some bubbling chemicals.

Also, a Tesla Coil or two, just because.

[MethosH]

Dude... Chill... If we wait the plot shall come. So is written on the book of Elan. :smallbiggrin:

[Green-Shirt Q]

Interactive comics tend to work that way.

Which is why, in my opinion, most interactive comics FAIL!

Someday or another I'll have to make one to show everybody just how an interactive comic SHOULD be done!

But not any time soon. I'm too busy, and have too many fancomics on the go.

Then again, my upcoming comic, Peach's Castle, could hypothetically be interactive...

I'll have to ponder that.

[BRC]

Which is why, in my opinion, most interactive comics FAIL!

Andrew Hussie (http://www.mspaintadventures.com/) would disagree.

[Green-Shirt Q]

Andrew Hussie (http://www.mspaintadventures.com/) would disagree.

That's not really interactive, is it? At least not that I could tell. :smallconfused:

I just looked at the first couple comics, though. And was quite bored.

[BRC]

That's not really interactive, is it? At least not that I could tell. :smallconfused:

I just looked at the first couple comics, though.
It is. All the commands were user imputed, any time (besides the "Enter Name, and the names were Imputed) you see something besides an arrow, it was a user command.

Also, Bored, by THIS (http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=002736)

A spinning whell, which I assume is a loading screen, lasting forever? Yeah, kinda. :smalltongue:

[BRC]

A spinning whell, which I assume is a loading screen, lasting forever? Yeah, kinda. :smalltongue:
It is indeed a loading screen.

You wait for it to load.

[Green-Shirt Q]

*waits*

*looks at watch*

No. :smallannoyed:

[BRC]

No. :smallannoyed:
If you insist.

[MethosH]

Andrew Hussie (http://www.mspaintadventures.com/) would disagree.

How do you call this "Interactive"?! You just keep pressing the only button the see the next comic. That is as much interactive as OotS :smallannoyed:

[BRC]

How do you call this "Interactive"?! You just keep pressing the only button the see the next comic. That is as much interactive as OotS :smallannoyed:
Because you're progressing through the archives there. The actions the characters take (Any time you see something that isn't an arrow) were viewer imputed.

Seriously, how else do you imagine an Interactive Comic would work? (Besides A Choose Your Own adventure style thing)

[SinisterPenguin]

How do you call this "Interactive"?! You just keep pressing the only button the see the next comic. That is as much interactive as OotS :smallannoyed:

The commands are all taken from a "Suggestion Box" in which the viewers input their suggestions. Hussie then chooses one and uses it.

Also MS Paint Adventures is seriously the best webcomic and is what inspired this (if that wasn't obvious already).

[MethosH]

Oh, ok, nevermind :smallbiggrin:

The fact that it sounds like a game made me think that the interaction was in every single comic

[Green-Shirt Q]

Well, maybe it was just the first few comics I've read so far in Homestruck, as I keep getting linked to that on multiple occasions in the past and now, and the comics after the other one BRC just linked me to, I can say this based on that, IT IS BORING. At least it takes it's sweet time hooking you in. :smalltongue:

You are missing the point by far.

The thing about Interactive comics isn't the plot it self, but making the readers feel like they are actually a part of that. They should develop the plot by making weird choices, like using underwear like a hat during an date or something.

If you say so.

I suppose I shouldn't try and argue, but it's still my preference for a comic to be either gags or story. If I wanted to see a protaginist do random crap I want them to do, I would just write and draw it myself.

That's cuz you ARE a comic author ¬¬

Most of people ain't.

It's like Guitar Hero... You want to play guitar but you don't know how and don't really want to learn.

Interactive Comics allow people that don't want to bother make a comic to feel like they are part of the team that makes one.

[Arti3]

Okay so what do you guys think Dave should do?
(Yes I am sneakily changing topic)

[Keris]

What do?
Repair BoxbotBoxer!
Also, the thing in the middle of the top shelf (the Transmogrifier? The Quantum Thing? Unsure.) appears to resemble a hat. Wear it.

[SinisterPenguin]

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa2.png

You wear the Transmogrifier as a hat. You feel incredibly silly.

[Will get to the "fix Boxer" command that seems to be the general consensus soon.]

[MethosH]

I have a great idea!

Fix Boxer, rename him Carlos, the Robot.

Make Carlos wear the transmogrifier as a hat! :smallbiggrin:

[John Cribati]

Go out the door to see if you can find something to fix Boxer.

[Keris]

You wear the Transmogrifier as a hat. You feel incredibly silly.
Hmm. The the Transmogrifier is evidently having an adverse affect on your brain functions. Ensure it is switched off, with force if necessary, and resume feeling stylish and genteel.


[Will get to the "fix Boxer" command that seems to be the general consensus soon.]
Perhaps run a general diagnostic on the little fellow. Alternatively, open the access panel on his back and shove the Quantum Thing inside, connecting random wires to it as necessary. That oughta do the trick.


Fix Boxer, rename him Carlos, the Robot.
Nay! He should be Carlos, a caixa de robótica! Or whatever that is in real Portuguese.

[Fay Graydon]

Use the Scrap Metal to Repair Boxer.
Then Wire the Quantum Thing into the Transmogrifier, Cackle madly, and order the (Hopefully fixed) Boxer to "Throw the Switch Boxer!"

[Felyndiira]

Mix all three chemicals and dump them at the Quantum Thing, and then continue to contemplate life.

[CrimsonAngel]

Say the word cheese.


Then fix BOXER, drink the middle liquid, and finaly cackle like a madman.

[SinisterPenguin]

Alternatively, open the access panel on his back and shove the Quantum Thing inside, connecting random wires to it as necessary. That oughta do the trick.

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa3.png

You open Boxer's access panel and place the Quantum Thing inside, then connect some random wires to it.

You are not entirely sure what the Quantum Thing does, exactly. Your memories of actually making it are somewhat hazy. But hey, you put "quantum" in the name so it has to do something useful, right--

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa4.png

Woah.

You...you are quite certain you never gave Boxer the ability to fly.

[Mad Mask]

Use it to rob a bank, and return with home with the money.

Alternatively, sell the robot for billions of dollars. But there's no fun in that, eh?

[CrimsonAngel]

Host a Party and modify Boxer to be a Disco Ball.

[Keris]

You...you are quite certain you never gave Boxer the ability to fly.
Of course we did! Just now, when we wired the Quantum Thing into what I shall now call Quantum Boxer. The Transmogrifier must be having an adverse affect. First it alters our sense of style, now it causes us to forget what we did just did.
Still, we shouldn't take it off quite yet. It is so very dapper.

Now, with Quantum Boxer fully functional, we are ready for whatever life may throw at us. Open the door!
edit: But the handle would be too tame for such an action. I concur with Felyndiira's suggestion of throwing the chemicals at the door.

[Felyndiira]

Opening the door is too tame and not fitting for a genius scientist. I propose throwing all three chemicals at the door and record the resulting reaction, in the name of science.

[Silverraptor]

Of course! Now we open the door.

[Fay Graydon]

Take Scrap Metal...
You never know what it will be needed for.

[SinisterPenguin]

Opening the door is too tame and not fitting for a genius scientist. I propose throwing all three chemicals at the door and record the resulting reaction, in the name of science.

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa5.png

Suddenly filled with boldness, you hurl your Chemicals at the door rather than opening it. Aw yeah. You are living on the edge now.

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa6.png

A rather confused Pigeon appears.

[CrimsonAngel]

What the hell? Eat the pigeon.

[MethosH]

Use Scrap Metal and Trans... trans... mo... transthing to turn the Pigeon into Boxer 2, the robot pigeon

[Keris]

A rather confused Pigeon appears.
Hmm. Intriguing.

Coax the Pigeon into the Transmogrifier, then replace it on your head, thereby storing the Pigeon for the purpose of future Magic Tricks, sure to amuse and amaze our friends and relatives!

[someonenonotyou]

have Boxer and Pigeon Fight[/B to the death! In the name of [B]Science
MWHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH!!!!

[John Cribati]

Stare in awe at the pigeon for several minutes. Then call it to you. If it does not respond, send Boxer to destroy it.

[BRC]

Name the Pigeon after your favorite noble gas, and train it to be your loyal companion.

[Felyndiira]

You have a phobia for pidgeons and thus run toward the other side of the room in fear. Who knows, you may bump into something else on the other side.

[Fay Graydon]

Remove coat, RIP OFF SHIRT IN A MANLY WAY!
Replace coat.
Examine Pidgeon carefully. it could be a trap!

[Rae Artemi]

Pidgeon: steal quantum hat thing. use as nest.

Followed by

Dave: Believe removal of quantum hat thing has turned you into a fish. Flop around on floor.

[SinisterPenguin]

Use Scrap Metal and Trans... trans... mo... transthing to turn the Pigeon into Boxer 2, the robot pigeon

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa7.png

You take off the Transmogrifier and use its Fusion function to bring together the Pigeon and the Scrap Metal.

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa8.png

You have created Boxer 2, AKA Birdboxer. You now have two Companions.

[Rae Artemi]

Birdboxer: steal transmogrifier hat. use as nest.

Followed by

Dave: Believe removal of quantum hat thing has turned you into a fish. Flop around on floor.

And I repeat with a slight edit.

[Belkarsbadside1]

He walks out the door because he's bored with chaos and wants to brag to friends anyone that will listen about the awesomeness he achieved today.

[CrimsonAngel]

Rob a bank using SCIENCE!

[Keris]

Replace the Transmogrifier upon your head, and instruct Quantum Boxer and Birdboxer to open the door. Manual activity is for those fools who lack robotic servants!

[MethosH]

Analyze door. Figure out why the door no longer have a hole. Invent new Regenerative Body using the Trans-something in you and the door to become an Imortal Super Scientist

[Keris]

Figure out why the door no longer has a hole.
Pretty sure that was just smoke. :smalltongue:

[MethosH]

Pretty sure that was just smoke. :smalltongue:

Where did the pigeon came from? :smallconfused:

[SinisterPenguin]

Where did the pigeon came from? :smallconfused:

The chemicals spontaneously formed it. The purple stuff was smoke from the reaction.

I suppose I didn't make that clear enough. :smalltongue:

[MethosH]

The chemicals spontaneously formed it. The purple stuff was smoke from the reaction.

I suppose I didn't make that clear enough. :smalltongue:

HOLY C...

New idea:

Remember how did you get those chemicals, get MORE, got the scrapyard. Make an ARMY OF BIRDBOXERS!

[someonenonotyou]

Now have they fight to the Death in the name of science

Also: MWHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Mina Kobold]

Command jukebox boxer and birdboxer to open the door to look for a pizza place

All this SCIENCE! must have made you hungry :smalltongue:

[Neopolis]

HOLY C...

New idea:

Remember how did you get those chemicals, get MORE, got the scrapyard. Make an ARMY OF BIRDBOXERS!
I endorse this post.

[SinisterPenguin]

Of course! Now we open the door.

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa9.png

You open the Door and leave your Laboratory (after replacing the Transmogrifier on your head, of course).

You are now outside your lab, in the outskirts of Zephyr City. As always, it is blisteringly hot. Someone appears to have left an Envelope outside outside your door. A Path leads into the Streets of Zephyr City.

[Keris]

Hmm. Correspondence from afar. Take the Envelope and retreat back into your Laboratory to open it and examine the contents. And do so quickly, lest you succumb to heatstroke.

[SinisterPenguin]

Hmm. Correspondence from afar. Take the Envelope and retreat back into your Laboratory to open it and examine the contents. And do so quickly, lest you succumb to heatstroke.

You're pretty sure blistering heat was just hyperbole but whatever. You head back into your Laboratory and open the Envelope.

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa10.png

Wow! Inside is an Invitation to the Annual Mildly Insane Scientist's Convention. Every year, mildly insane scientists get a chance to show off their various discoveries and inventions to their fellow scientists. This is your first time being invited. You're in the big leagues now.

You should probably do some more research and create more inventions before you head to Vale City for the convention, however. A few robots and a Transmogrifier isn't going to impress anyone.

[CrimsonAngel]

Invent a wooden stick with led in the center, and some rubber at one end to ERASE the led markings!!!

[Rae Artemi]

Invent Boot-shaped Rocket-Gloves. That seems mildly insane enough.

[Silverraptor]

Invent a device that will control people like a remote on their personalities. I.E. Flip through different emotions or turn them off and make them fall asleep, etc. etc.

[Keris]

Finally, our mild insanity is gaining the recognition it deserves! Or is it our scientist-ness‽ I forget.

Anyway, I propose a more exciting plan of action. Inventing stuff is time consuming, we should steal some inventions from our fellow rival scientists!
Quick, rack your brain! What other mildly insane scientists do we know of? Preferably ones with recent, unpublished inventions and poor laboratory security.

[CrimsonAngel]

I love you, Keris. :smalleek:

[MethosH]

Screw this. Create Birdboxe Army at the Scrapyard and raid the convention.

[BRC]

Take a survey of the local population to see what people would like to have invented, then invent that stuff.

[Mina Kobold]

Invent a device that will control people like a remote on their personalities. I.E. Flip through different emotions or turn them off and make them fall asleep, etc. etc.

I concur, or whatever fancy word means 'agree' :smalltongue:'

Built the emoticon to control people's emotions, then lose it when a superhero's sidekick mistakes it for their communicator!

[Threeshades]

Build a device with the sole purpose of thoroughly impressing everyone around.

[SinisterPenguin]

Finally, our mild insanity is gaining the recognition it deserves! Or is it our scientist-ness‽ I forget.

Anyway, I propose a more exciting plan of action. Inventing stuff is time consuming, we should steal some inventions from our [S]fellow rival scientists!

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa11.png

Hm. You know of at least 3 other mildly insane scientists in Zephyr City alone:

1. Dr. Chang of the Shadow District.

2. Dr. Slightly Crazy of Semi-Nutso District.

3. And Overlord Kaziel of the Administrative District.

Chang and Slightly Crazy have fairly low security, from what you've seen. Kaziel, on the other hand...

You...you probably don't want to mess with the Overlord of Zephyr City.

[CrimsonAngel]

You always pick Keris's!

Think of wich one you hate more, and send Boxer and Bird Boxer to spy for weaknesses in defense.

[MethosH]

Dr.Chang may know kung-fu.
So go and spy on Dr. Slightly Crazy

[CrimsonAngel]

Ah yes, I have a new idea.

Fuse some beatles and some more scrap metal to from robobeatles. Send them into SlightlyCrazy's lab to spy.

[Rae Artemi]

Flop around like a fish for 3.297 minutes and send the the boxers to spy on whichever Dr. you end up facing towards.

[Fay Graydon]

Consider the most recent inventions you've made and try and figure out if there is a way to guarantee that at the convention you will be crowned as the Annual Mildly Insane Scientist's, Annual Mildly Insane Scientist of Importance Award.
Possibly by "removing the competition"

[MethosH]

Scream out loud:
"Bada bin bada bam bada beakman!"

[SinisterPenguin]

Flop around like a fish for 3.297 minutes and send the the boxers to spy on whichever Dr. you end up facing towards.

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa12.png

You flop around like a fish for exactly 3.297 seconds. Exactly.

You end up facing North, the direction Dr. Chang's lab.

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa13.png

Your fish-flopping escapades have granted you a one-point increase in the Skill Fishy Decision-Making. You can now make decisions slightly more like a fish.

You'd do a victory dance or something but all that flopping made you kind of dizzy.

[MethosH]

Holy crap! Try T.Rex decision-making now!

[BRC]

Examine your Science! Skills.
Employ! More! Exciting Punctuation!

[SinisterPenguin]

[Again, my apologies for the slow updating.]


Examine your Science! Skills.
Employ! More! Exciting Punctuation!

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa14-1.png

You open up the Science! tab. You are quite sure that exclamation mark has always been there. Quite. Sure.

Science! splits into three skillsets: plain, boring Science, Mildly Insane Science, your specialty, and the hallowed grounds of Mad Science itself. All of these can be opened to view their skills, aside from Mad Science. Mad Science is a Legendary Skillset, meaning that it requires all the other skills in the other skillsets to be completely leveled-up before it can be Unlocked.

[Mina Kobold]

Open up the Mildly Insane Science tab and see what Mildly Insane Mischiefs you can do!

[SinisterPenguin]

Open up the Mildly Insane Science tab and see what Mildly Insane Mischiefs you can do!

You examine the Mildly Insane Science skillset.

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa15.png

First up is the field of Necrology, which you tried once or twice but then decided it was sort of creepy. Next you have Xenopsychology, which you would like to try your hand at but you've never met an alien, much less an alien with mental problems. You're fairly skilled at Roboteering. You're pretty alright at Alchemy.

You scroll down to view the remaining skills.

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa16.png

You sort of avoid the field of Thermobioastrosociology, because you're not actually sure what its about. And finally, there is the endlessly vague field of Quantum Stuff.

[Malkar Grumbo]

Pose as a team, because stuff in the near future might possibly get real.

[SinisterPenguin]

[And now we have the introduction of animated GIFs! Because really I can't rip off MS Paint Adventures enough.

I dunno what the deal is with the lights on the Transmogrifier and the weird..."crawling" lines on the goggles. Or the changing color of the goggle's lenses...though that one actually looks sort of cool. Anybody know how to fix those?]

Anyway you decide it's time to quit screwing around and...

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa17new8.gif

...Yeah.

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/uu320/SinisterPenguin/aaa18.png

You decide to send Birdboxer off to spy on Dr. Chang. You brief him on his mission and send him on his way.
