Line 22:
* [[Color Coded for Your Convenience]]: In ''Cthulhu's Angels'', {{spoiler|Normal Umi gets her usual blue-haired portrait, but Dark Umi has silver hair.}}
* [[Defeat Means Friendship]]: If you can beat {{spoiler|Dem}} in the main game, he'll join your party. Played straight ''and'' subverted in ''Cthulhu's Angels'': {{spoiler|Dark Umi}} is a mandatory recruit and {{spoiler|Sara takes Dem's place as the [[Bonus Boss]]}}. Subverted with {{spoiler|Dacre and Ember}}: since this is a different story than that of the main campaign, events unfold somewhat differently...
* [[Dem Bones]]: The name of a commonly encountered enemy. [[Exactly What It Says On the Tin|Guess what it is.]] Also a [[Shout -Out]] to the name of the main character in ''[[Breath of Death VII]]'', by the same developers. {{spoiler|Dem himself is actually a recruitable NPC.}}
* [[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?|Did You Just Punch Out]] {{spoiler|[[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?|AZATHOTH?]]}}
* Dronejam: There's an area where there's [[NP Cs]] permanently stationed in front of a bunch of doors, and you can't get in no matter what. If you talk with the [[NP Cs]], they just say "sorry, you're not allowed inside". Eventually after talking to one, your party members will say to themselves that there's probably nothing behind the doors anyway and that the developers are obviously doing it just to mess with you.
Line 33:
{{quote| '''Cthulhu:''' I just like insane things. Is that a problem?}}
* [[Fourth Wall Observer]]: Cthulhu. The entire story is kicked off by him ''eavesdropping on the narrator''.
** The other characters also join in, especially in the Cthulhu's Angels [[New Game Plus+|alternate campaign]] for the PC release.
* [[Frothy Mugs of Water]]: "...Milk", which is clearly depicted as a frothy brown liquid.
** Maybe it's chocolate milk?
Line 48:
* [[Lovecraft Lite]]
* [[Mythology Gag]]: ''Cthulhu's Angels'' has multiple points where things are different from the original campaign. Several of these are accompanied with characters commenting on the difference in various ways.
* [[New Game Plus+]]: The PC version has extra content, and when it was released, the Xbox Indie version was updated to the new version.
** There are also a couple of alternate game modes. Including one that makes you level 40 after a single battle. And multiple difficulties.
* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: In a rare {{spoiler|meta-example, the player does this to ''themselves'' at the end of the Cthulhu's Angels campaign. In leading the party to save the world, you convince Cthulhu to spare it - and he decides to go destroy Earth instead.}}
Line 60:
* [[Random Encounters]]: An interesting Subversion, as you only have a set amount of random encounters per area... once you run out, you can wander around as much as you'd like. And [[Encounter Bait|force battles from a menu command.]]
* [[Retreaux]]
* [[Shout -Out]]: ''Lots''.
** The blurb for gargoyles says that [[Gargoyles (Animation)|They've been trying to get a TV deal for years.]]
** [[Bad Dudes|"The city of Dunwitch has been taken over by undead monsters! Are there any dudes bad enough to rescue the city?"]]
