Shitty "box art" for the PC version.
Malleo's Planet Quest is a Stupid action-adventure third person shoot 'em up shame that was in development for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System and Windows, but was cancelled after the developer realized that everyone saw Malleo's Time Machine as a shitty shame. Despite this, it was leaked onto the internet around 1995 and was later pirated ported to the Nintendo Entertainment System and Shame Boi.
This was intended as the third entry in the Malleo is Missing series, but despite the name neither Malleo or Weegee are in the game. The game instead has some SMW Mario clone (or so you think) named Mellono as the "star".
Plot[]
Bowser got bored one day and decided to try and conquer the Solar System, Mellono gets to the space station and attempts to stop that turtle.
There are essentially no details in the actual story, as neither the opening or the ending were complete by the time the game was cancelled.
Shameplay[]
Mellono starts off the shame within Bowser's space station, he has to get to the room to his left in order to grab an item that is reserved for a certain planet. Once he grabs the item and correctly identifies the planet/moon it belongs to, he can then go to the main room and start the rocket ship's engine to get to that planet. Once Mellono gets to the planet, he has to set the item into the correct location like in Malleo's Time Machine, but he'll have to identify where the correct location within the planet is by hitting a bunch of info blocks that mostly tell him useless information about the planet he is on before telling him the location to put the item in. Once you help Mellono set the item into the right place, you go back to Bowser's space station and have to do this process all over again.
You have to do the entire process for at least 9 times, but there is no limit on how many times you can return the same item to the same planet due to the shame's unfinished nature. Once you "complete" the entire shame by returning the US flag to the Earth's moon, it just crashes as it can't handle Mellono's true power for some reason.
Reception[]
Nobody liked this shame because it is boring, stupid, and unfinished.
Trivia[]
- Despite being an educational shame, there is no educational content in this shame whatsoever.
- Contrary to popular belief, Mellono is not the protagonist in this shame. The protagonist is Chuck Norris because he said so. Sarah Palin then said she was the protagonist, but she is not Chuck Norris.
