Line 54:
* [[Schizophrenic Difficulty]]: Given the relatively large number of levels per world, SuperTux inevitably has shades of this. (In part also because both implemented worlds feature different environments throughout their courses, such as [[Underground Level]]s, [[Bubbly Clouds|sky levels]], water-rich levels and castles.) This architecture makes it very hard to constantly ramp up difficulty.
* [[Slippy-Slidey Ice World]]: Icy Island, the start point of the game. Usually Tux has [[Truth in Television|no problems]] walking over snow and ice tiles, but there are surfaces which are so slippery that even the little penguin will slip (oddly enough, this doesn't affect enemies).
* [[Soundtrack Dissonance]]: Some of the hardest levels have rather happy or calm soundtracks. Especially the main theme (a frantic techno soundtrack) is used for many levels of various difficulty levels, while [[Underground Level]]s mostly have calm and melancholic soundtracks regardless of difficulty - including [[That One Level]] "Think fast, or die" mentioned before.
* [[Super Drowning Skills]]: Ironically, Tux has them in current versions, because swimming is not yet implemented. So he just falls through water as if it was air (unless one uses tricks like wind and low gravity).
* [[Tertiary Sexual Characteristics]]: Largely averted for Penny.
