Line 46:
* [[Homage]]: To the [[Game Boy]] platformer games of old, right down to the colour scheme consisting of only black and greenish-yellow. {{spoiler|Except for the full color ending.}}
** The music is also 8-bit classic. {{spoiler|Except for the ending's almost [[Tear Jerker]] piano solo of "Atop the World".}}
* [[ItsIt's All Upstairs From Here]]
* [[Kaizo Trap]]: At the beginning. The deity says he has no patience for slow workers, and the first screen is ridiculously easy. Take too long climbing the steps and he WILL smite you.
* [[Level Editor]]: The Flash port comes with one, which unlocks upon clearing the game. In order to share the level you make, though, you have to beat it first.
Line 54:
* [[Nintendo Hard]]: Since it invokes old [[Game Boy]] games, this is in effect. You have to combine Platforming skills with adherence to the laws. Said laws also escalate in cruelty, from simply not being allowed to touch yellow blocks, to not being able to walk left, not touching blocks or walls from the sides, not touching living beings and eventually not being allowed to look at the Book of Laws again. {{spoiler|At least until the final level destroys the book and revokes all but one of the laws. In the Newgrounds version, all the laws are revoked, but the obstacle remains (albeit changed)}}.
* [[No Name Given]]: There has been no name given for the deity. The protagonist was also unnamed until the Newgrounds Flash port. {{spoiler|According to the level editor, his name is Eid.}}
* [[One -Hit -Point Wonder]]: Contact with a spike or saw or breaking one of the laws will result in instant smiting.
* [[Platform Hell]]: Basically the whole game. There's two levels where, if you don't make a move within the first ''second'', you die. The first of those levels has an exit to the mere left of you. But this is the same level where you're forbidden from walking left. How do you beat the level? {{spoiler|[[Loophole Abuse|Abuse the loophole.]]}}
** And then the final level combines spike traps, skull blocks, saw blades, various other vicious traps, and a classic [[Bottomless Pit]], and is one of the longest levels to boot.
