Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Charlie Murder is a Side Scroller Beat 'em Up game from Ska Studios, playing a bit more like the classics that inspired it than their notoriously breakneck Dishwasher series.Charlie is the lead singer of the titular band, Charlie Murder, a massively popular Punk Rock band. But on his rise to fame, Charlie and the band happened to spurn Charlie's former friend, Paul. Powered by envy and jealously, Paul Bitterman strikes a deal with dark forces, becoming Lord Mortimer, lead singer of the Death Metal band Gore Quaffer. In a short span of weeks, a massive rivalry between the two bands builds up, eventually culminating in Gore Quaffer's bassist Circe Bathory starting a fully blown zombie apocalypse, and the lot of them shortly thereafter beating Charlie Murder within an inch of their collective lives. Charlie and crew narrowly survive, pull themselves together, and set out to set Gore Quaffer straight once and for all.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The gameplay model, referred to as a "BrawlPG" by the developers, plays out as an unusual mix between River City Ransom, Borderlands, Final Fight, and The Simpsons arcade game. Fallen foes drop pocket change which can be used to buy food and clothing. Food and drink provide both healing and permanent stat boosts, while clothing provides a whole host of benefits: torso clothing primarily provides significant defense boosts and elemental resistances, hats strengthen your character's magic power (here referred to as Anarchi), and gloves strengthen your punches and kicks, as well as adding some extremely splashy elemental damage. All of the clothing can also have tangential enchantments that are harder to quantify, such as life-steal, stun chance, or causing stasis on knockback.Keeping with the RPG theme, each of the five band members of Charlie Murder have their own RPG-styled character class:Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) Charlie Murder, lead singer and Berserker: His unique ability is Dual Wielding and Guns Akimbo, and his spell list can contain a little bit of everything. Tommy Homicide, bassist and Shaman: His unique ability can convert severed enemy heads into healing totems, providing a trickle of health to anyone in the area for each one, and his magic consists of area damage, area damage, and more area damage. Kelly Skitten, AKA Skelekitten, manager, backup vocalist, tambourinist, and Mesmer: Her unique ability is an evade roll, allowing her to pass through any number of attacks, and her spells lean heavily towards crowd control and support magic to a lesser extent. Lester Deth, guitarist and Mage: He can steal souls of critically damaged enemies to reduce his cooldowns, allowing him to spew out spells to no end. His magic is focused towards straight offense and summoning demonic underlings. Rex, AKA The Rexecutioner, drummer and Tank: His unique ability allows him to grab and throw nearly anything. His great size also provides resistance against being grabbed himself. His magic tends to be self-buffs or utility spells.From June 16 to 30, 2014, the game was made an available for free for Xbox Live Gold members on Xbox Live's "Games with Gold" program. | |

Fan Dumb: In-Universe. You can hear both Charlie Murder and Gore Quaffer fans being interviewed by the radio station in the tattoo palor in-between songs, with plenty of Take Thats directed toward certain kinds of examples of this trope. | |

Multiple Endings: "The Bad Ending": The Zombie Apocalypse is stopped. But at the cost of the band not being able to save Paul from his demons, and they are presumably forced to kill him. "The Good Ending: Paul is freed from the evil forces controlling him. The world is saved, he and Charlie bury the hatchet. Along with Charlie tying the knot with Kelly. | |

Apathetic Citizens: The bartender in the background of the third song sequence doesn't seem at all concerned with the demons pouring gasoline all over the place, and even less so when they set the place ablaze. The radio station seems to exploit the ongoing rivalry between Charlie Murder and Gore Quaffer to draw listeners in. The people they interview likewise don't seem too concerned about the ongoing Zombie Apocalypse, and the one who is is cut-short (the rest talk about how Charlie Murder are getting egotistical or are Comically Missing the Point). | |

Booze-Based Buff | |
| Charlie Murder (Video Game) / int_469e49de | comment |
Booze-Based Buff: The beer category has some of the best stat improving items in the game, and has one of the most easily obtainable large healing items...though they normally all make you temporarily drunk, increasing your attack strength, but randomizing which attacks come out regardless of button pressed, and slowing your run and jump speed. | |

Wham Line: Throughout the game, you get phone messages from "a friend" who makes note of your progress and serves as Mr. Exposition after major events and boss fights. The message before you fight Gore Quaffer simply reads "By the way I am not your friend". Though one could speculate "your friend" is Paul taunting you, the next two messages confirm that it's the Angel of Chaos. | |

Heel–Face Turn: Circe ends up having this after zapping the band to near death in the final battle, due to having developed feelings for Charlie as she observed him. Disobeying Mortimer's orders to kill them results in him impaling her with his scythe in a blind fit of rage, shortly followed by King Tepe's retaliation for killing his girlfriend leading to the same fate. Beelzabal crushes his contract with Gore Quaffer and leaves Mortimer to fend for himself. Also Paul in the good ending after going through evil villain therapy. | |

New Game+: Diablo style. Beat the game and unlock the next difficulty, "Chaos", with enemies and loot appropriately scaled to your formerly endgame self. Beat THAT, and unlock "Total Anarchy".

And Your Reward Is Clothes | |
| Charlie Murder (Video Game) / int_6ac6a56a | comment |
And Your Reward Is Clothes: Sort of. There's an optional (and slightly hidden) area in the very first stage that needs a certain relic to access, normally meaning backtracking. Beating it unlocks an "alternate band", enabling you to select different versions of each character. These different versions have identical skill lists, but their spells are often dramatically different, sometimes even completely unique. A different set is unlocked for each difficulty. | |

Meaningful Name: Countess Circe Bathory and King Tepes were named after Circe from the Odyssey and Countess Elizabeth Bathory in the first case, and Prince Vlad III (the inspiration of Dracula who was also known by King Tepes) in the latter. Beelzebaal is a combination of the Biblical demon Beelzebub and Ba'alberith, the god of Canaan later to be demonized. Paul's last name, Bitterman, perfectly describes him. Even his main theme is simply titled "Bitter" in the soundtrack. | |

Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds: Paul Bitterman has reasons for being, well, bitter. He was suddenly replaced by Lester and kicked out of the band once they made it big, lost his best friend he's known since birth, and the band continued to (unknowingly) sabotage his solo project. All of this causes him to go off the deep end and try to murder Charlie Murder with his own band and uprising a Zombie Apocalypse. | |

True Final Boss: The final level and the real final boss of the game, the Angel of Chaos, isn't available unless you acquire all of Smockula's pieces and have them equipped before your battle with Lord Mortimer. Otherwise, you won't be able to damage Smockula during the battle, leading to the game's bad ending. Beating the final level will unlock New Game+ and have a much happier ending. | |

| Charlie Murder (Video Game) / int_8774fb47 | comment |
Eldritch Abomination: The Twin Scenelords are rather grotesque parodies of the tragedy and comedy masks, being large and slender figures with creepy expressions on their faces. One is pale white, and the other is darker in color with red eyes. Unlike any other boss, they are healed if you attack at inappropriate times. | |

Fire and Brimstone Hell: The game opens with this, as the ground has a reddish tint and spikes protruding with flames burning in the background. It is also the setting for the final level. | |

| Charlie Murder (Video Game) / int_8e6cb094 | comment |
Giant Space Flea From No Where: Any boss that isn't a part of Gore Quaffer counts, as none of them get any foreshadowing or some kind of explanation for why they're there. This ranges to comedic with the Sasquatch boss and downright disturbing with the Gorged Tumor under the sea. | |

Coup de Grâce | |
| Charlie Murder (Video Game) / int_98770aab | comment |
Coup de Grâce: Critically wounded foes can be finished off with a head-exploding curb stomp if they've been knocked down. Some mini-bosses and bosses need to be dealt with this way, or they'll get back up with a slightly refreshed health bar. | |

Digital Piracy Is Evil: Played for Laughs in a Poke the Poodle/Parody manner. Gore Quaffer's "IT guy" has a literal pirate ship, complete with crew. The bottom deck filled with computer servers solely dedicated to pirating Charlie Murder albums. | |

Instant Kill: Foes at a quarter health or less will be killed outright by elemental attacks (flash-incinerated by fire, melted into a skeleton by acid, et cetra), and two-handed heavy melee weapons will completely pulverize even elite versions of foes once they've hit half HP. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Charlie Murder (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Lord Mortimer sometimes throws a chalice of red wine at the ground. To make the reference complete, a level has Phantom Mortimer sitting upon a throne and asking the infamous question with speech bubbles before doing so. In a playground, there are a few horse toys. One of them is a bit bloody and has a triangular helmet on its head, and another bears a resemblance to Rarity. One scene has the band fighting exploding birds. With coat hangers. In the mental asylum, the band will wake up strapped in a trap. The boss of that level, the Lady in Tatters, also bears a strong resemblance to the Billy puppet, and rips apart a Jigsaw Expy before attacking the heroes. Maybe doubling as a Early-Bird Cameo, there is also a movie poster outside of the theater showing the Lady in Tatter's face, named RAWR in similar font to Saw's title. Lester has a Triforce on the backside of his right hand. | |

Mushroom Samba | |
| Charlie Murder (Video Game) / int_f7d4f121 | comment |
Mushroom Samba: In the Camp Falconbats side area, Charlie and friends eat random pills that they find lying on a picnic table, causing them to completely trip balls and run through a multicolored psychedelic chalk-outline world, fighting cultists and demons, while wielding an infinite supply of chainsaws/shotguns. (As soon as a chainsaw breaks or a shotgun runs out of ammo and you throw it, you instantly get a new shotgun or chainsaw.) Eventually you fight a bizarre brain monster and the trip ends. You then run back to the beginning of the area to discover that all the cultists you murdered were actually just hippies. The last living hippie screams in terror and tries to run away from you, only to trip and violently impale his head on a branch. Also counts as a Big-Lipped Alligator Moment, as you get no e-mails after finishing the area and it's never mentioned again. Though it is required to get one of Smockula's body parts. | |
