Line 71:
* [[Standard FPS Guns]]: Subverted. You've got your pistol and machine gun, but from there the game offers several rocket launchers with different functions, a magical baseball bat, a literal [[God Mode]], and an alternate Dog Mode.
* [[Tennis Boss]]... No. [[In Soviet Russia, Trope Mocks You|Tennis Player]]. Let's face it: you '''had a lot of trouble''' while dodging ''your own'' projectiles that {{spoiler|Snake Oscuro}} mirrors?
* [[Throw It In]]: The game-crashing [[Easter Egg]] level "This Causes An Error". To elaborate: moving walls crash the game when they reach the boundaries of a map. A playtester made a joke drawing out of that glitch, and so Apogee did the level in question, which merely serves to demonstrate the glitch and show said joke drawing upon the crashing.
** The enhanced Win32 port fixes the glitch, thereby making the level utterly pointless.
* [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future]]: According to the game's opening, it takes place "one year in the future".
* [[The Walls Are Closing In]]: In early versions, [[Deadly Walls|even touching an approaching wall causes instant death]]. While walls usually were independent movers, there are some places where sections of walls move back and forth to crush the player and one level where it appears the walls are closing in when you hit a touchplate but stop at the last second.
