Luigi's Time Traveling Journey

Luigi's Time Traveling Journey is a CGI 3D action-adventure game for the Nintendo switch. Its release date is in December 2023. This is based off of a SpongeBob episode called SB-129.
== Summary ==
After Bowser, all his minions, his son Junior, King Boo, and the other villains of Luigi's Mansion cause chaos and destruction to the Mushroom Kingdom based on the destruction that was done to the Regular Show park in Exit 9B, Luigi tries to fight his enemies, only to be overwhelmed and to be flung into a portal King Boo made far down to the ground and extremely far into the future with Pauline, who was also sucked in the portal while she was driving in her car. Pauline and Luigi must use a time machine to go into the future and past to fight bosses there as well as seeing prehistoric times. After escaping a completely empty black void called "Nowhere", Pauline and Luigi are finally going to get into a final boss fight since they have gotten back to their own time so they can rescue their friends and family, especially Mario and Professor E. Gadd.
== Plot ==
Luigi is sleeping in his house until getting a call from his Dad. Luigi tells him on the phone about his ghostly adventures and that he is going to see Daisy today. Luigi's Father asks Luigi what he will do with Daisy and Luigi explains to his Dad all about it with his Dad agreeing. Right before Luigi could hang up, explosions are heard outside. Luigi frantically runs outside to investigate and to his shock and horror, he sees complete chaos and panicking. Bowser, Junior, King Boo, and the other Luigi's Mansion villains are chasing and shooting the Mario, Peach, and Toadsworth with laser stun guns and brought to the Airship. A lot of other Mushroom Kingdom citizens are shot and stunned to with the laser stun guns. Professor E. Gadd tries to get away, only to be shot by Bowser Junior and kidnapped too. The minions of Bowser cause a lot of destruction to The Mushroom Kingdom with Luigi successfully able to run away. After that, the Mario villains and the Luigi's Mansion villains demolish Peach's castle with remotes, and they laugh maniacally while Luigi glares in disbelief and horror as the screen goes to black. On the airship, Luigi fights the villains and tries to rescue his now tied-up friends and family but is overwhelmed. King Boo gets his remote and opens a portal far down to the ground. After saying goodbye to Luigi in an evil manner, King Boo casts Luigi off the ship and out of the sky with Lightning from his crown. Pauline is driving in her car and did not notice until too late that she is sucked into the portal to thousands of years into the future along with Luigi. Luigi and Pauline meet the robotic primitive versions of Mario and Peach as well as the robotic primitive versions of Pauline's friends. To make them regain consciousness, the robotic primitives of Mario, Peach, Professor E. Gadd, and Daisy pull up the bottom of Pauline and Luigi's pants and they shoot lasers from their hammers on Luigi and Pauline's legs which makes them wake up and scream in pain while flying in the air. After being directed to a time machine, Luigi and Pauline go to the past and they are now in the prehistoric era.

== Time Machine Look ==
In Luigi's Time Traveling Journey, The Time Machine appears to be a room with silver chrome door on the left side of a hallway. When entered inside the time machine, the room has a teal striped yellowish wallpaper, three hanging pendant lights, a brown ceiling, and interestingly, a lever with the words "Future" and "Past as well as a number keyboard of how many years Luigi and Pauline want to go forward or back to. There are four lights on the wall next to the switch that continuously make the same beeping noises that this game makes: This 1978 Simon Game. When the lever is pulled in a direction and the number of years is typed in by Luigi and Pauline, it sends Luigi and Pauline to the future or past levels. When Luigi and Pauline travel through time, pink flashing lights appear the moment they disappear.
=== Nowhere ===
When getting in the time machine to avoid having their lives taken by cavemen that is chasing them, Luigi pulls on the lever so hard and accidentally breaks it off the switch on the time machine, causing the word FUTURE to change its setting by spinning like a slot machine, then stops on 2 Mario blocks and a Boo with the voices of Robosoft 1 and Robosoft 6 saying "LOSERS", leading it to warp from the prehistoric era. Thanks to Luigi breaking the lever on the future setting, the time machine doesn't go back to the future, instead it malfunctions, and different colors begin flashing within. The time machine ends up in a rainbow-colored spiral area with random things flying around, then end up in a computer area with different random things flying across the screen. Then, after going warping through outer space, the machine folds itself like paper while flashing in different colors for the second time and finally disappears altogether. This is where the climax occurs. Luigi and Pauline have now found themselves in an empty black void called "Nowhere". Nothing exists in the void at all, except colored shapes that can be lifted off the floor when touched. After hearing disturbing echoing voices, Luigi and Pauline get hysterical and they try to search for a way out of Nowhere. First, they sprint across the screen around multiple times, but they realize that by doing that, they just end up back into the same spot as before. Panicking and asking where the time machine as well as anything is over and over again, Luigi and Pauline jump around crazily, but luckily, they end up back in the time machine by breaking the floor. When they enter their time machine, Luigi and Pauline have an emotional breakdown, saying they want to go home before they begin to admit that they miss New Donk City, the Mushroom Kingdom, and even the names of their friends and family that they mention. Upon doing that, the time machine warps him back to the present time period before the ultimate final boss begins to rescue everyone Luigi and Pauline are closer to, including Mario and Professor E. Gadd and the ending scene as well as the end credits will endure after the ultimate final battle. You can press the B button while in the time machine to check in with Pauline and Luigi just like how you check in with Charlie, Brittany, and Alph in Pikmin 3. You can use the A button to select a level to travel into with the Past or Future options.
== Damage/Continue/Game Over ==
If Luigi or Pauline take damage from enemies or dangerous hazards, one of their HP points will be depleted. Two or three can even be depleted depending on how badly hurt Luigi or Pauline get. Luigi or Pauline's HP meter will start beeping when it's only at 4. If all 10 HP points are depleted, not only will you lose a life, but you will also lose the same number of coins you lose for the cause of dying in Bowser's Fury. If Pauline or Luigi gets burned or electrocuted, they will be sooty with black smoke rising from them. If you lose all your lives, then the player is taken to a black background displaying Pauline lying dead, covering her face with her tank top, looking upwards exhausted, looking shocked, praying, or crouching with her cardigan over her head or Luigi lying dead, covering his eyes with his cap, looking upwards exhausted, looking shocked, praying, or crouching while holding his cap under a spotlight in a black background as the End Of The Line music from Rayman plays. The word "CONTINUE?" will appear on top of the screen with a line drawing itself all over the screen followed by three options. Selecting "CONTINUE" makes Luigi or Pauline recover before getting really happy and the player continues from the stage's last checkpoint. If the player selects "TO THE TIME MACHINE", the player will get back to the time machine to choose another level to play. If "QUIT" is selected, this question will appear: "Go back to the title screen?". If you select "YES" when being asked that question, the camera pans to a view above Luigi or Pauline, the spotlight goes out, and the "GAME OVER" sign taken from Mario Vs. Donkey Kong Mini-Land Mayhem appears in the middle of the screen with the Game Over theme from Super Donkey Kong 99 on Sega playing followed by the game sending the player back to the title screen.
== Soundtrack of Luigi's Time Traveling Journey ==
This soundtrack has all the music from Sega video games such as Rayman from the PlayStation 1, Super Donkey Kong 99 from Sega, and the inside of the time machine theme is Piklopedia music from Pikmin 2. Its English version of Drifting Away from WarioWare Inc is performed by Luigi and Pauline. Another singing and dancing music video performed by Luigi and Pauline in this game is Luigi and Pauline's own version of Give It All You Got.
== Gameplay ==
Luigi and Pauline will be automatically chosen as your player depending on what level you are playing at during time traveling. Your lives can go no further than 999. When Luigi or Pauline dies, you lose the same number of coins you do when you die in Bowser's Fury as well as a life. You can copy or delete files in the file selection. There are multiple difficulties in this game after selecting a file to play in. 10 HP can double to 20 when you get a life mushroom from Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. A normal mushroom gives you one hit point back. A 1UP mushroom gives you an extra life. A 2UP gives you two extra lives. A 3UP gives you three extra lives while a 2X mushroom gives you two hit points back and a 3X mushroom gives you three hit points back. A Skill Stop Mushroom (!) and a Random Stop Mushroom (?) gives you back whatever the flashing HP segments stops on when you press B. The title screen of Luigi's Time Traveling Journey consists of Luigi and Pauline doing walk cycles all through prehistoric and future times while the World Map theme from Rayman is playing in the background which also plays in the background of the file selection menu.

The end credits music of Luigi's Time Traveling Journey is the instrumental version of Drifting Away and the Luigi's Mansion Training theme. After the end credits, the words "THE END" appear as Luigi is heard saying "Bye everyone!" taken from Luigi's Mansion 3.
This is the sound of the life meter segments lighting up in order or randomly from collecting a Random Stop Mushroom or a Skill Stop Mushroom: https://www.google.com/url?
