You have to navigate your way around the lightless, BGM-free interior to get to the puppy, and should you make certain wrong turns, there's a pit with a Sandcroc that's waiting to give you a Jump Scare as you land in the pit. In the Sand Zone, one of the puppies you have to rescue is in a pitch black shack.Watching as the island becomes the base for an invasion of the surface. So if a fall from the island didn't kill him, he could still be alive, just with broken legs. Bonus points because the player character never exhibits fall damage over the course of the game, unlike a lot of other robots.Scenery Porn it may be, but woe betide you if you fall from the Outer Wall.And then the revisited Egg Corridor immediately afterwards, which cranks the Scenery Gorn Up to Eleven especially with the bloody remains of half-formed Sky Dragons littering the place.The same BGM also plays in Santa's and Chako's - now empty - houses. The previously-cheerful village has been turned into a total Ghost Town the only intelligent life that shows up is Professor Booster if you fulfilled a particular obscure requirement to keep him alive. Post-Waterway Mimiga Village, made worse by the music ( especially the enhanced re-release versions).All because he treated his fellow citizens better than his king did. Poor guy was sentenced to insanity-inducing torture that made him into the maniac he is today. There's something to be said for fighting your boss fight on top of a mountain of skeletons, when every powerful slam into the ground kicking up bones everywhere. The stage where you fight Ballos is extra creepy as well.Also, the blood-red stains on Ballos' face in his last form are what appear to be screaming faces.The broken robot you see right before the fight with the Core stands out (in particular, the obviously frantic command to retreat that they give before they short out for good), as does the Undead Core with his bloody faces (the big energy ball-spitting form especially) and Ballos' last form, with the corpses.Then a frenzied Mimiga jumps out of the fireplace. One room in Grasstown/Bushlands has a bed with red flower petals scattered on the floor.The red flowers that turn Mimiga into super strong monsters with no mercy or fear.
Said island could - at any time - release a raging horde of monstrous demonic creatures that would easily tear apart all of modern civilization, leaving you in a ruined world ruled by a complete psychopath with infinite power. except for the fact that a World War was rather recently fought over a magical floating island because it contained a piece of headgear that channels the never-ending rage of a Mad God. Imagine living in a world where life is essentially normal. The actual plot of the game is existentially terrifying.You look about and find one exit, and there you find, either monsters, killer robots gone psycho, twisted abominations, or, above all else, more darkness with a never ending sense of dread, and no way back. You just know that you're hurt, you're weak, and you're lost somewhere in this dark damp cave with no memory of anything that happened. Let us look at it this way: say one day you wake up, and you don't know where you have been.Sure it's an adorable game, but it's not so sweet and cuddly beneath the art style.
