Conker's Bad Fur Day is a Nintendo 64 video game developed and published by Rare, and distributed by Nintendo. The game stars Conker the Squirrel, a Rare character who had previously appeared in other games marketed towards children, such as Diddy Kong Racing for the N64 and Conker's Pocket Tales for the Game Boy Color. Marketed as an "adult" platform game, Bad Fur Day features scatological humour, cartoon violence and a penchant for parodies.

Gameplay

Single-player

In the single-player mode, the player takes on the role of Conker and plays the game in a free-roaming environment. Conker can duck and jump a high distance vertically, as well as jump at least twice his height in any direction. Conker can also spin his tail around quickly like a helicopter for a few seconds. Rather than give it an official-sounding name, as is the unofficial 'tradition' in the video game business, Conker just calls it the "Helicoptery tail-thing". This allows him to jump a little higher, navigate in the air to accurately land, and slow his descent if he's far from the ground. After a few seconds, the tail slows down, and he drops and isn't able to do it again until he's landed and jumped again. Besides this, he has few other physical powers. He can swim underwater for a while until he runs out of breath, jog indefinitely and not get tired, and is strong enough to push heavy round objects, which in one of the later levels are a "big bourgeoisie boiler's brass bollocks". This article does not cite any references or sources. ... For other uses, see Brass (disambiguation). ... Bollox redirects here. ...


Conker can eat pieces of "Anti-Gravity Chocolate" to regain lost health. In a parody of similar platformers with unexplained floating pickups throughout levels, they were originally created by the Professor, but he threw them out the castle window when he started a new project.[1] Afterward, Conker can eat up to six of them. There are two types of chocolate; regenerative chocolate and one-time chocolate. One-time chocolate disappears after eaten, and doesn't re-appear until Conker exits then re-enters the world. Regenerative chocolate re-appears 10 seconds after being eaten, apparently out of thin air. Antigravity chocolate does not provide protection against certain things, such as falls from especially high heights, being severed in two by spinning blades, or being dismembered in a grinder. However, it does protect against being hit with a heavy object from above, such as a large dollop of poo. Horse feces Feces, faeces, or fæces (see spelling differences) is a waste product from an animals digestive tract expelled through the anus (or cloaca) during defecation. ...


"Context Zones" allow Conker to do things he couldn't normally do outside Context Zones; he usually pulls a far-too-big thing out of his far-too-small pocket, although sometimes he turns into an anvil and slams into the ground. B-button pads under barrels of beer can give him "drunken" abilities as well (he is able to stagger around and urinate). Although most Context Zones only work once, some can be used more than once, or even indefinitely. However, most of the context zones lose their purpose after being utilized, even if they are continuously usable. These Context Zones usually take the form of "B-button pads", and sometimes activate while Conker is in mid-air. However, they are always evident by a light bulb appearing above Conker's head with a "ting!" noise and can be activated by a press of the B button.

Much of the gameplay in Conker's Bad Fur Day features parodies of various movies, including The Terminator, Reservoir Dogs, Dracula, The Wizard of Oz, The Untouchables, The Exorcist, Star Wars, Apocalypse Now, A Clockwork Orange, Alien, Aliens, Full Metal Jacket, The Matrix, Scarface, Jaws, and Saving Private Ryan (plus, the shouted out "save ferris" on the beach in the "It's War" level is obviously a spoof towards Ferris Bueller's Day Off), as well as games like Wolfenstein 3D and Sonic the Hedgehog 2. It also has a small parody of Super Mario 64.

The game has alot of strong language in it, but only censors the word "fuck" with a beep, with the subtitles of the speech of "fuck" being flashing symbols in red, like skulls and lightning. Some signposts include the modified word "feck", as in "feck off".


Multiplayer

Conker's Bad Fur Day features several different forms of multiplayer.


"Death Match" is a standard kill-everyone-else round, determinable by time or amount of lives. The round can be played in every multiplayer arena (except "Race and Tank") and also a unique-to-this-variant arena called Bunker, which features several traps and special areas. "War" features the Squirrels-Tediz war from the single-player game. The basis of this mode was upgraded in Conker: Live and Reloaded, becoming the only multiplayer function in that game. The mode is divided into two portions: in "Total War", The Squirrels and Tediz have occupied two sides of a symmetrical fortress, which features sniper towers and a sewer level. Using a poison gas canister, the objective is to kill as many of the opposition as humanly possible, within the time limit or until their lives run out. The poison gas isn't essential, but advisable. The other portion of the "War" mode is "Colors", a more conventional style also referred to as "Capture the Flag". Once again, both forces have taken up a side of the battlefield, though it is now asymmetrical (but the bases are still the same in architectural design), and the aim is to steal the enemy flag from their base and escape to the player's own. For other uses, see Capture the flag (disambiguation). ...


In "Heist" Don Weaso from the game continuity is organizing a heist from the bank with four colored teams involved. The opening cutscene heavily parodies Reservoir Dogs, right up to the naming of the four weasels he enlists to pull off the job: Mr. Blue, Mr. Red, Mr. Yellow and Mr. Green. Although really a four-person every-man-for-himself game, it can also be modified to two weasels on each team. The teams infiltrate the poorly-guarded vault and attempt to steal the moneybag. As each colour wants to please the boss, the teams are pitted against each other. In "Raptor", the cavemen are in the mood for raptor eggs, and the raptors are in the mood for fresh caveman. Owing to the obvious advantage, the raptor team can only have a maximum of two raptors, whereas the cavemen can have a team of up to eight. For the video game based on the film, see Reservoir Dogs (video game). ...


In "Beach", the Frenchies (squirrels) are attempting to get to Paris, but the Tediz have the coast guarded. The Colors map is changed, with the squirrel base replaced by a beach. The Frenchies must get to the tunnels under the Tediz base within 90 seconds each to remain safe; when the time limit expires, they get hit by a laser beam. The Tediz goal is simple: kill Frenchies. And they have an arsenal for it as well: Turret Gun, Bazooka and Sniper Rifle. The only way for the Frenchies to dispatch their enemies is the dynamite plunger, located where the bazooka is in Colours.


The "Race" mode is similar to the Race portion of the single player game, in which each player must navigate the lava river on the floating surfboards and cross the finish line first. Hitting each other with weapons is perfectly suitable, as is the various upgrades (missiles and nitro-boosts) spread around the course. "Tank" is the only multiplayer variant to feature the tank, each player must drive around and kill each other. Similar to "Total War" is the poison gas option, and similar to "Race" is the various upgrades around the course.


Plot

The opening scene shows Conker as an angry king, sitting miserably on a throne with a cup of milk in his hand. The throne is surrounded by a number of bizarre characters. Conker tells the audience that it is a long story and starts telling the tale from the beginning. The opening is a parody of the classic film, A Clockwork Orange, right down to the music which is the theme from the movie. The next scene shows Berri, Conker's shapely girlfriend, doing aerobics. Someone is calling her on the phone, but she does not notice because of her earphones. The person on the line is actually Conker, who explains that he is coming home late because his friends are going out to fight in some war and Conker is going to party with them before they leave. Conker eventually becomes so drunk that he throws up near a monk on the way out of the Cock & Plucker bar and staggers off down the path opposite the way home. Meanwhile, in a foreboding castle, the Panther King attempts to enjoy a full glass of milk, but his broken sidetable causes the partially-filled glass to tumble over, enraging the king. This article is about the film. ... St. ...


The next day, Conker awakes in the middle of nowhere with a severe hangover. Conker asks a nearby scarecrow named Birdy for help, but instead learns of "Context-Sensitive Buttons", buttons that give Conker just what he needs at that moment in time (currently an Alka-Seltzer). As Conker gets past a giant gargoyle with the help of a frying pan and some dynamite, the Panther King summons Ze Scientist into his throne room to observe his table to discover the cause of the spilt milk. In the back room, Ze Scientist throws a fit over the King's stuck-up attitude and knocks a piece of "Anti-Gravity Chocolate" out of a window in his tizzy.[1] The chocolate lands in front of Conker, who uses this chocolate as a source of energy.

Birdy asking for some Mepsipax in return for help

Conker comes across a forlorn Queen Bee who sobs over the loss of her hive to a trio of wasps. Conker successfully retrieves the hive, while the Queen Bee uses the hive's artillery to wipe out the wasps that stole the hive. The Queen Bee thanks Conker for this contribution to the Bee community, and rewards him with a talking wad of cash. Birdy takes this to his advantage and sells Conker an ambiguous manual for the cash prize.[2] The manual teaches Conker how to use a slingshot, which he uses to kill a group of Liverpudlian dung beetles who want to kick the crap out of him.

As Conker enters a barnyard area, Ze Scientist toils over an army of Nazi teddy bears that'll supposedly usurp the Panther King. After feeding a flatulent rat so much cheese that it explodes, Conker ventures into a barn occupied by sentient hay piles. Conker's entrance is not taken lightly by the barn's pitchfork (named Franky), who is pressured into kicking Conker's ass by the barn's paintpot and paintbrush. Franky's attempt at eliminating Conker causes him to accidentally kill all of the hay piles in the barn. The paintpot and paintbrush berate Franky's ass-kicking abilities and convince Franky to hang himself, laughing at his attempt in doing so. With Franky out of commission, Conker leaves the barn, allowing a Haybot to fulfill his goal of wandering around aimlessly. After helping a homeless King Bee "pollinate" a big-breasted sunflower, Conker frees Franky from his noose and befriends him. Together, they fight and defeat the Haybot.

As Conker tries to find another way home, Ze Scientist announces to the Panther King that a red squirrel is needed to fill in the gap in his sidetable, causing the Panther King to send his guards out to fetch him a red squirrel. Meanwhile, Conker comes across Poo Cabin, where a dung beetle, assuming that Conker's looking for some poo, sends Conker off to feed a trio of cows a vat of prune juice, all the while avoiding an angry bull. The sheer amount of poo allows Conker to create a number of poo balls that dispose of a few guards, allowing him to drain a nearby lake. The hole in the lake leads Conker to Bats Tower, where a group of blue-blooded catfish request that Conker dispose of a vicious dogfish who has stolen their valuables, with the promise of ten percent of their cash. Upon sneaking into Bats Tower, Conker meets a cog with two personalities, one of which is implied to be homosexual, who sends Conker off to find the other cogs. The combined power of the returned cogs shortens the dogfish's leash drastically, after which the female cogs get revenge on the heterosexual personality of the cog (a punishment which the homosexual side seems to enjoy) and leave for the Caribbean. Upon returning from Bats Tower, the catfish open the safe for Conker, but the wad of money runs away from him. When Conker pursues the money, he comes across a group of wasted fire imps, whom Conker disposes of by inebriating himself and urinating on the imps, extinguishing them. The imps fight back by piloting a bourgeois, big-bollocked boiler, whom Conker defeats by repeatedly striking its testicles. When Conker returns to the catfish with the money, he discovers that they aren't as rich as they have implied themselves to be. Just as Conker claims all of their money, the dogfish breaks free from its leash and kills the catfish one by one. Conker is able to flee the dogfish and make a few extra bucks.

When Conker ventures into Poo Mountain, a dung beetle begs him to leave, telling him a story about how his two friends were lost to a monster in the mountain. All of a sudden, a booming voice demands Conker to bring it some sweet corn. When this wish is fulfilled, a giant opera-singing pile of feces emerges from the shite, introducing itself as the Great Mighty Poo, and declares that it's going to throw its shit at Conker. Conker battles the beast by tossing giant rolls of toilet paper whenever it tries to sing a note. Eventually, the Great Mighty Poo sings so loudly that it breaks a nearby glass wall hiding a giant chain. When Conker pulls this chain, the Great Mighty Poo is flushed, ending its threat. Conker then wanders into the Great Mighty Poo's former hole to see where it leads.


Meanwhile, Berri is knocked unconscious and kidnapped by a mysterious rock creature. As this is happening, Conker discovers a prehistoric world and manages to bypass a couple of the Panther King's guards by passing himself off as an elephant. In the prehistoric area, Conker hatches, befriends, and eventually sacrifices an infant Tyrannosaurus Rex to a T-Rex statue, whom Conker then causes to sneeze by pouring pepper into its nostrils, killing a nearby caveman. When Conker steals the dead caveman's hat to blend in with the other cavemen, he convinces the other cavemen into beating the other rock creatures in the area while he goes to the Rock Solid club. While getting hammered, he discovers that Berri is in the same club, but Berri doesn't recognize him with his caveman hat. When Conker attempts to follow her, a rock creature stops him, citing that he needs to go see "the boss" before going any further. The boss, better known as Don Weaso, gives Conker a job: to exterminate the Uga Cavemen, whom the Don feels are out of place in this ecosystem and are "on [his] patch", with a bomb. Conker tosses the bomb into an area that floods a large part of the prehistoric world with lava, boiling most of the cavemen. When Conker succeeds in flooding the Ugas away, he is mugged by a group of delinquent cavemen, and must race them in lava surfboarding to get his money back (of course they ride on anti gravity or "hover" boards, which is an anachronism in the prehistoric world). Afterwards, Conker is tossed into a Colosseum-style arena, with hundreds of cavemen watching. The leader, Buga the Knut, catches sight of Conker, and releases Fangy, a ferocious raptor, to devour him as to entertain the audience. As Conker entertains the audience, Buga is convinced into facing Conker himself and proving that no one's "boner" is bigger than his. After taking a few chunks out of Buga's buttocks, Fangy and Conker reveal Buga's "very small willy". The sheer humiliation causes Buga to flee the stadium, never to return. Afterwards, Conker departs with Fangy and hits on Jugga before leaving the dinosaur world.

After helping the Queen Bee get her hive back once again, Conker decides to take another route home. At a pier, Conker finds an ornery midget Grim Reaper named Gregg trying to kill a bunch of catfish. Gregg reveals to Conker that one of his rich (and undead) ancestors lives in the castle in the horizon, and gives him a shotgun that'll dispose of any zombies encountered along the way. At the castle, Conker is greeted by the Count, who treats him to sustenance and eventually turns him into a bat when villagers start braying at the door. The Count reveals that he is Conker's great, great, great, great, great grandfather, and gives him the task of fetching the invading villagers and putting them in the Count's grinder so that he can feed on their blood. Conker performs this by defecating on the villagers and blinding them as to make this job easier. Once the Count has consumed enough blood, he becomes so heavy that the rope he is hanging from snaps, causing him to fall into his own grinder and turning Conker back into a squirrel. He tries leaving the castle but now it's locked in with a bunch of undead. After finding the keys, Conker rides the barrel back to the Windy area, just to hear about the Tediz War. Death, personified is an anthropomorphic figure or a fictional character who has existed in mythology and popular culture since the earliest days of storytelling. ...

At the war site, Conker walks in just to find a plane crash right before his eyes. The army Seargent talks to Conker about joining the army for being a survivor of the atrocious atrocity that crashed in front of them. He tells Conker to clear the way so that the troops can go to the war, and that the water has an electric eel and some things in it. Once activating the "things" with the eel, Conker opens a bathroom door, only to find a guy carrying TNT; he leads this person and several of his clones to the site of the atrocious atrocity and blows them up to get rid of it. Conker is then knocked unconscious by the Sargent and wakes up in uniform on a boat as part of a force invading the Tediz island.

After the Tediz are defeated, Don Weaso enlists Conker for another job; this time a bank job. Conker is finally reunited with Berri, who is also in on this job. After a Matrix parody, Conker and Berri find themselves in the vault. After gathering all the money, Conker is a millionaire, but shortly thereafter the Panther King appears and reveals that the bank job was merely a plot to bring Conker to him. In the confusion, Don Weaso shoots Berri, killing her. Before Panther King can use Conker as a table leg Ze Scientist's xenomorph pops out of Panther King's chest, killing him, and the bank vault blasts into space. In there, Conker has to wear a space suit in order to battle the xenomorph that, being thrown out through the window more than once, is about to kill Conker when the game freezes over. Conker then uses this opportunity to ask for weapons from the game programmers and, selecting a sword, slashes off the xenomorph's head. Upon killing the xenomorph, Conker is crowned king of all the land. However, he does not want to be the king. He also realises he forgot to ask the programmers to bring Berri back to life. However, the programmers are gone. Conker is forced to live with the power forced upon him.

Development

Conker's Bad Fur Day was originally going to be titled Conker's Quest and was later titled Twelve Tales: Conker 64. Early screenshots suggested the game would feature cute characters and colorful settings. Rare had a long history of making games of this sort, such as Banjo-Kazooie and Diddy Kong Racing, and at first Conker did not appear to be any different. However, Rare started to fear that the game would simply get lost in the platforming crowd, and critical mockery of "yet another cute platformer" caused the original game to be drastically overhauled. When the announcement was made that Conker would be re-tooled into a "controversial" game with lots of scatological humor, many did not initially believe it, and assumed the press release was an April Fools' Day joke. However, as the months went on, the change quickly was understood to be very real and permanent. Inspired by South Park, the game's producer, Chris Seavor, lobbied to revamp the graphics and attitude, and it transformed into Bad Fur Day. Seavor himself voiced Conker in this new version, along with all the male characters in the game except the Great Mighty Poo, who was voiced by Chris Marlow. Likewise, Louise Ridgeway voiced all the female characters in the game. Banjo-Kazooie is a 3-D platform/adventure video game for the Nintendo 64. ...

Differences

The promotional videos and pictures from Electronic Entertainment Expo (at the time when the game was still called "Twelve Tales")revealed objects and characters which have influenced the released game. Objects such as the flower and mushroom sprites were seen in the promotional video and a character closely resembling Buga the Nut was seen chasing Conker (who was wearing a knight's helmet) in a promotional picture. Nevertheless, Conker's Bad Fur Day is considerably a far different game from the original plans despite the small influences it had on the release game. E³ logo The Electronic Entertainment Expo (or Exposition), commonly known as E³ or E3, is an annual trade show for the computer and video games industry. ...


The game's original ending was going to involve Conker walking up to a mirror in the pub, bursting into tears, pulling out a gun and aiming it at his head. The screen would fade out, and a gunshot would be heard. This ending was dumped because "It didn't spot much for a sequel." This is ironic, because when Chris Seavor was asked about a new Conker game, he said it would focus entirely on the SHC/Tediz war, and Conker would be killed off in the first scene.


Reception

When Conker's Bad Fur Day was released, many publications and websites considered the graphics to be the best to date on the N64 (even better than Perfect Dark's).[3][4] The game featured dynamic shadowing (shadows stretch and skew depending on nearby light sources), colored lighting, and more. Though these graphics techniques were not completely unheard of at the time, they were still fairly new to video games. The game also featured large areas with a large draw distance and no distance fog, a rarity among Nintendo 64 games. Conker's Bad Fur Day also featured detailed facial animations including lip synching. Again, this wasn't the first game to do so, but at the time, the vast majority of 3D games had characters with completely static or minimally animated faces. Also some characters had individually rendered fingers rather than the standard "brick." In short, Conker's Bad Fur Day featured a number of technical effects that gamers were not yet used to seeing. Though for all of these graphical effects, the game did suffer from some frame rate drops. Perfect Dark is a 2000 first-person shooter video game for the Nintendo 64 game console. ...

Developer Rare had a close relationship with Nintendo and they are known for squeezing out as much performance as possible from a console. Conker's Bad Fur Day was one of the last games published for the Nintendo 64; Rare had all of their previous developing experience from ten published Nintendo 64 games going into the project.


Also notable was the game's large and diverse vocal track, which easily rivaled that of other N64 titles which were well-known in this regard, such as Star Fox 64. It should be noted that no other N64 title has come close to the amount of recorded dialog that Conker's Bad Fur Day has, which is considered to be a technological miracle (similar to the Resident Evil 2 N64 port with its FMV fully intact) due to the N64 cartridge constraints. The game's soundtrack won the 2001 BAFTA Interactive Entertainment Award for sound. Star Fox 64 ), known in Australia and Europe as Lylat Wars due to trademark issues, is a scrolling shooter video game for the Nintendo 64 video game console. ...

Even though the game fared well with critics in both the UK and US, it sold worse than expected, in part because of its prohibitively high cost and early 2001 release; a year later, the Nintendo 64 was discontinued after the release of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3, yielding to the new GameCube system.

Nintendo of America refused to even acknowledge the game in its Nintendo Power publication, and all advertising was limited to late-night cable television and ads in Playboy. Despite (or perhaps because of) everything working against it, the game has enjoyed a cult following, actually growing in popularity despite it being for an older console.

Legacy

Conker's Bad Fur Day apparently did not gain much acknowledgement, possibly due to the fading popularity surrounding the Nintendo 64 at the time of its release. But due to the nature of the game, Conker's Bad Fur Day has developed a cult following. Even as of September 2007, many fansites which are dedicated to the Conker Series are still running. The Nintendo 64 ), often abbreviated as N64, was Nintendos third home video game console for the international market. ...


Ports

In 2005, it was re-released on the Microsoft Xbox as Conker: Live & Reloaded. This game features improved graphics, a whole new multiplayer designed for a Live-enabled campaign, and Xbox Live support. Despite selling well the first week of its release, it fared worse than its predecessor, with many gamers voicing their disappointment that it was just a port (rather than a whole new Conker game). In the game, there is a "port" joke quipped by Conker, who says that he thought Live and Reloaded was just a straight port and not simply a "hack" (referring to the dupe pulled on him by the game's developer during the training level). Another disappointment was that the single player game was censored (though bleeps already covered "fuck" in the Nintendo 64 version), with bleeps covering the words "shit", "twat" and "fellatio" (which was not used in its proper context), which were present in the original N64 version (seen by many as extremely ironic, considering that many people think of Nintendo as more "kid friendly" and "family oriented" than Microsoft and its Xbox systems, which are marketed towards adults).
