{{tropelist}}
* [[Animal Motifs]]: Butterflies. {{spoiler|The deity himself is one.}}
* [[Badass Normal]]: The main protagonist, using only his jumping ability and little else.
Line 30 ⟶ 28:
* [[Cutscene Boss]]: Once you finally reach the deity ({{spoiler|who appears to be nothing more than a simple butterfly}}), he surrenders, having nothing else to throw at you.
* [[Deadly Walls]]: The second rule, "Thou shalt not touch blocks or walls from the side."
{{quote| [[Jerkass Gods|"This ought to be interesting."]]}}
* [[Death Course]]: Almost all of the game.
* [[Death Is Cheap]]: Unlimited lives are in effect. The game DOES tally up the amount of player deaths at the end, though.
Line 61 ⟶ 59:
* [[Retcon]]: The Newgrounds version changed the golden blocks in the final level to skull blocks, in order to fill the [[Plot Hole]] of {{spoiler|golden blocks still killing you after the Book of Laws is broken.}}
** The composer [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkBnQ27-Qrs&feature=related explained this] (spoilers in the comments) on Youtube as well:
{{quote| Rur539: Huh... I know in the newgrounds version in level 11 the golden blocks were skulls, but since they are gold/yellow in the playthrough {{spoiler|and the Book of Laws shatters}}, wouldn't that mean you could have walked on them?<br />
flashygoodness: That was a problem in the original game. The yellow blocks still killed you {{spoiler|after the rules were nullified}} in the original version, hence the decision to change them to a different type of block in the new version. }}
* [[Sdrawkcab Name]]/ [[Meaningful Name]]: The level editor for the Newgrounds version reveals the protagonists name as {{spoiler|Eid}}. Now, what does [[God Is Evil|the deity]] want you to do? [[Nintendo Hard|What are you probably going to be doing a lot of the time in this game?]] That's right...
