The evil Dr Destructo’s nefarious plan has just been defeated by the forces of good and he is in a foul temper. He is sure that his plan was sound and the reason he lost was due to incompetence by his minions. He has summoned his loyal monster to use its powers of mind reading to discover who is responsible for the defeat and deal out horrible retribution!
Here’s what I need. I’m looking for funny ideas for reasons that this unspecified plan could have failed. “Minion forgot to load his gun with bullets” and “Food poisoning” and “Overslept and missed the battle” are the types of things I’m looking for. I’m hoping that the creative powers of the Ludum Dare community can come up with much better ideas than I could on my own. So… any ideas?
Minions falls asleep in very responsible time because boss force it to work days and night and not give it lots of coffee
Actually, I really like the idea that the minion in charge of making the coffee used decalf instead of regular!
The minion flee because it was raining.
I’m trying to think about how I would work this in, but I like the idea. This will be a point and click adventure game where you are investigating these things, so maybe you could find a diary of one of the minions describing his fear of water…
Minions decided to take a bathroom break
Minions swallowed a swallow
Minions just decided not to fight
lol! I like swallowed a swallow especially. Not sure how I can work it in though…
Minion was busy developing a game for Ludum Dare.

I’m going to try to work this in somehow! Thanks!
The coffee machine broke.
That’s awesome. Definitely going to work the coffee ideas in there somehow. Thanks!
