In 2004, a musical adaptation for the stage was premiered at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, with music by Leighton James House and lyrics by Shaun McKenna. In 1996, Only You Can Save Mankind was adapted into a three-part radio drama on BBC Radio 4, starring Tim Smith as Johnny. It was released in 1998, with the same premise of requiring three thousand years of game play to complete. This inspired an interactive fiction game developed by Julian Fleetwood, Journey to Alpha Centauri (In Real Time). If the game were actually played for three thousand years, the player would be rewarded with a message saying 'Welcome to Alpha Centauri. The game is meant to be played in real-time, meaning it would take three thousand years to finish the journey. Wobbler writes a computer game entitled Journey to Alpha Centauri. For instance, since Kirsty refuses to see the ScreeWee as anything other than alien monsters who exist to be shot, they are much less human-like in her presence than when only dealing with Johnny. With the help of another player, Kirsty, who calls herself 'Sigourney' (as in Weaver), Johnny must try to get the ScreeWee home. This might all be the result of an over-active imagination except that the ScreeWee have disappeared altogether from everyone else's copy of the game. After accepting the surrender he finds himself inside the game in his dreams, where he must deal with the suspicious Gunnery Officer as well as the understanding Captain, and work out exactly what they're all supposed to do now. However, he has not been playing for long when the ScreeWee Empire surrenders to him. Twelve-year-old Johnny receives a pirate edition of the new video game Only You Can Save Mankind from his friend Wobbler. The setting of the novels in the modern world was a departure for Pratchett, who wrote more regularly in fantasy world settings. The following novels in the Johnny Maxwell Trilogy are Johnny and the Dead (1993) and Johnny and the Bomb (1996). Only You Can Save Mankind ( 1992) is the first novel in the Johnny Maxwell trilogy of children's books and fifth young adult novel by Terry Pratchett, author of the Discworld sequence of books.
