"Shadow of the Colossal Donut" is the eighth level of The Simpsons Game.

Description

After the level "Enter the Cheatrix" is finished, three more levels open up at the Simpsons house backyard. These can be taken in any order, but following the story, this is the next level. Also, this level introduces Homer's new power, "Heli-Homer".

Synopsis

"Bart and Homer try to defeat Lard Lad after Kang and Kodos made him destroy Springfield."


Plot

Kang and Kodos' invasion in Springfield included attacking dolphins, which Bart and Lisa defeated. Kang and Kodos shot a laser at a Lard Lad statue which made him come to life and destroy the city. Almost all buildings have been destroyed by Lard Lad's laser. Kent Brockman is reporting the chaos in live from his helicopter, watching how Homer and Bart try to beat Lard Lad. He attacks them when he sees them with his laser and his stomps. Plus, his laser can make little Krustys come to life by shooting at Krusty Burger billboards. They will attack Homer and Bart, but they are weak and can be easily beaten by shooting them or using Homer Ball boosts. To get food, Homer can eat tacos from a taco van, ask for food at the Krusty Burger or get food from donuts billboards, since Lard Lad's laser can also make drawn food real. Lard Lad shoots them every time he sees them, but he has a weakness, three hatches in his butt, back and head. Bart can use his slingshot to open the hatch in his butt (which will stop him), jump on it and disable his wiring. But the hatch in his back is too high, so to get to it Bart has to go to the top of a building and jump from there. The third hatch is in his head really high up, but Homer can use his new power to get to it: Heli-Homer. He can breath helium to become a ball and float until the gas is out. When Homer floats to Lard Lad's head and disables the wiring in the last hatch, Lard Lad will fall to the floor. Kang and Kodos look from their spaceship as Homer pounds away at the fallen statue's crotch, much to his son's embarrassment.

Gameplay

Start off with getting Bart to shoot at the hatch on Lard Lad's butt. This will get it to open. Jump up onto the hatch then press the button to break the wiring. Lard Lad will then run away. Repeat this with the second hatch, on his back. Lard Lad will go to a place where it's possible for you to climb up them jump down onto his hatch. Repeat this a third time, with the hatch on his head. Lard Lad will go to the prison. Have Homer-Ball dash into the fire hydrant next to the prison so Bartman can glide up to the roof. Then have Bart jump down onto Lard Lad's hatch to interact with him for the third and final time.

Meanwhile, EA Mini Krustys will be attacking you constantly, and Rigellians will spawn in at some point too.

Things To Do

  1. Open Lard Lad's first hatch and disable his wiring.
  2. Open Lard Lad's second hatch and disable his wiring.
  3. Open Lard Lad's third hatch and disable his wiring.
