{{tropelist}}
=== Tropes used in this game: ===
* [[Abnormal Ammo]]: A pea shooter and a boomerang ''sort of'' make sense ([[Fridge Logic|though it begs the question of how Snaily holds the gun/boomerang]]), but ''rainbow waves?''
* [[Alliteration]]: The stage names.
Line 65:
* [[Medium Awareness]]: Don't be surprised to see snails reference the fact that they are in a game. Particularly notable in this quote:
{{quote|"Don't moon snails live in the ocean? Hey, this game isn't realistic!! What gives??"}}
** "I hope the next game has more weapons. This game could have used a [[Castlevania (1986 video game)||flame whip!"]]
* [[Minus World]]: {{spoiler|???, with its weird glitchy walls and strange music. It's actually the passageway to the Shrine of Isis.}}
* [[Mirror Boss]]: Moon Snail. Aside from changing his own gravity, he uses Devastator-style boomerangs and dark-colored waves {{spoiler|in his first form. As Giga-Snail, he uses ''bigger'' Rainbow Waves, as well as using the Devastator-peashooter bullets. He even uses ''the idle animation'' as an attack; the Z's fly off in your general direction.}}
Line 84:
* [[Shout-Out]]: "[[Konami Code|Up, up, down, down, left, right...]] wait, never mind, [[Breaking the Fourth Wall|that's for some other game]]."
** The [[Boss Rush]] version of the Space Box is called "Time Cube". Both versions also [[Doctor Who|turn blue when they]] [[Turns Red|go berserk]].
** [[Medium Awareness|"I hope the next game has more weapons. This game could have used a]] [[Castlevania (1986 video game)||flame whip!"]]
** Upon starting a new game in {{spoiler|Slug Mode}}, a fake password screen appears, which is filled out by an unseen person with [[Metroid|"JUSTIN SNAILY"]].
** [[The Legend of Zelda (video game)|"It's dangerous to go alone!"]]
