Alright, let's put this [["Not Making This Up" Disclaimer|as straight as possible]]: you are playing [[Atari 2600]] games [[What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made on Drugs?|while high on acid]]. While listening to [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] music. Nothing could be [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?|more awesome]].

* [[Theme Naming]]: Every game name except ''Bit.Trip Runner'' and ''Bit.Trip Complete'' is only four characters long.

[[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|running]], ''Bit.Trip Void'' has you controlling a movable black hole, and so on.

* [[Unexpected Gameplay Change]]: ''Bit.Trip Beat'' has you playing a game of ''[[Breakout]]'' for one boss and an ''authentic game of [[Pong]]'' for another, at which points the rhythm aspect of the game would be completely set aside. Though if you listen closely, the bouncing of the ball from the walls and paddles does kinda follow the rhythm.
* [[Variable Mix]]:
Line 186:
** In games after ''Bit.Trip Beat'', "Nether" has a metronome to help you out.
** In ''Bit.Trip Flux'', the music doesn't change, but instead the instrument used when Beats hit the paddle and leave the screen change... all the way up to a ''violin'' in Meta mode.

* {{spoiler|[[A Winner Is You]]}}: At the end of ''Bit.Trip Flux'', you are presented with {{spoiler|a GAME OVER screen}}. It is, by far, the best parody of the trope.
