Snailiad: Difference between revisions

Line 9:

=== 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?''

* [[~~Added Alliterative Appeal~~]]: The stage names.

* [[Alliteration]]: The stage names.

* [[Airborne Mooks]]: A ''lot'' of the enemies in this game fly. <ref> Among others, the Sky Viper, Chirpy, Batty Bat, and Ghost Dandelion.</ref>

* [[Always Check Behind the Chair]]: It's a [[Metroidvania]] game. It comes with the genre.

* [[Amazing Technicolor Battlefield]]: The battle with {{spoiler|Giga-Snail}}.

* [[An Ice Person]]: The Iceballs.

** Snaily himself after getting the Ice Snail powerup.

* [[Apathetic Citizens]]: The snails of Snail Town leave everything [[It's Up to You|up to you]].

* [[Author Appeal]]: The creator ''loves'' snails. And boy, does it show.

* [[Babies Ever After]]: {{spoiler|The psychic snail in Snail Town predicts this of Snaily after getting the [[Golden Ending]]. "I can see the future, Snaily! I see you having 18,000,000 baby snails!! Congratulations!!"}}

* [[Big Bad]]: Moon Snail.

* [[Big Good]]: {{spoiler|Isis.}}

* [[Bubbly Clouds]]: Lux Lirata has shades of this.

* [[Boss in Mook Clothing]]: The Devil (red) Blob. It moves '''very''' fast, shoots tons of [[Buffy-Speak|energy ball... things]], and takes ''way'' too many hits to die! Thankfully, [[Unique Enemy|there's only one in the entire game]].

* [[Boss Rush]]: [[Nintendo Hard|And dear God is it hard.]]

* [[Boss Subtitles]]: Although there's no descriptive sentence; it's only used to display the boss' name.

Line 27:

** Which is derived from your [[Idle Animation]].

* [[Chain-Reaction Destruction]]: Bosses do this in a rather spectacular manner.

* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Most of the snails could qualify.

{{quote|"[[You No Take Candle|Cave Snail]] scares me! I'm staying over here!" [[Beat]] "Do you think Cave Snail is single?"}}

* [[Credits Gag]]: Downplayed: the credits [[Funny Moments (Sugar Wiki)|amusingly]] lampshade the trend of putting "And You" at the end of their credits.

Line 45:

* [[Gravity Screw]]: The Gravity Shell powerup allows you to do this.

** The Gravity Turtles can also do this.

* [[Green Rocks]]: The helix fragments.

* [[Hailfire Peaks]]: Mare Carelia could be either [[Green Hill Zone]], or [[Under the Sea]].

** Amastrida Abyssus combines [[Lethal Lava Land]] and [[Under the Sea]] (again).

Line 68:

* [[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.}}

* [[My Name Is ~~Question Marks~~]]: {{spoiler|???, a hidden area which contains the Shrine of Isis.}}

* [[My Name Is ???]]: {{spoiler|???, a hidden area which contains the Shrine of Isis.}}

* [[Nintendo Hard]]: Oh yes.
