| Blasto (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: Downplayed; if you rescue every babe before the final two levels, the climactic dialogue between Blasto and Bosc will start with them commenting over the fact that the former is in his skivvies. Other than that, the ending is practically unchanged. | |

Top-Heavy Guy | |
| Blasto (Video Game) / int_28951c74 | comment |
Top-Heavy Guy: Blasto’s upper torso to lower body proportions can only be described as preposterous even by top heavy standards, with a hugely exaggerated chest, shoulders, and biceps, but comically tiny hands and legs... and that chin. Even with his stance braced for balance, you get the feeling he's going to tip over any second now. | |

Ain't Too Proud to Beg: Upon defeat, Bosc tries to bargain his way out of what's coming to him by trying to bribe Blasto with riches, promises of power, and women. The last one momentarily tempts Blasto, but he ends up refusing Bosc's offer. | |

Big Red Button | |

Big Red Button: Pressing a large button with the sign "Do Not Press" displayed above it will result in Blasto getting disintegrated by a lightning bolt. In a slightly later section of the game, a second, identical button is encountered, with the same "Do Not Press" sign. If, against all logic, you fall for the same trick and press this one... a bunch of health and powerups spawn nearby. | |
