Codename: Tenka (Video Game) / int_10625025 | comment |
Waddling Head: One of the recurring Bionoid enemies is a giant head on four spider-legs. Given one of it's legs appears to be coming out it's left eye, it seems like the designer based the monster from The Thing (1982). | |

Shoot the Shaggy Dog | |
Codename: Tenka (Video Game) / int_272abb98 | comment |
Shoot the Shaggy Dog: Tenka is an honest citizen who has worked many years to get off a ravaged Earth, only to find that the colony he has chosen is run by a MegaCorp that use its inhabitants to manufacturate mindless war cyborgs. He narrowly escapes being turned into one and wages war with the guidance of Zenith , a rogue AI in order to escape the colony. After destroying countless assets of the MegaCorp, his "reward" is being killed by Zenith, who no longer needs him. | |

Laser Hallway | |
Codename: Tenka (Video Game) / int_2813c530 | comment |
Laser Hallway: Several corridors in Trojan Incorporated's labs have moving laser fences that can damage Tenka's health. Their emitters are visible however, and Tenka can shoot at them to deactivate the lasers. | |

The Goomba | |
Codename: Tenka (Video Game) / int_58efc711 | comment |
The Goomba: Tenka's first enemies are hovering, robotic drones mass-produced by Trojan Incorporated who floats circles around him. They appear in larger numbers as the levels go on, but these enemies are pretty slow and dies in two shots. | |

Codename: Tenka (Video Game) / int_5b19cc1b | comment |
Air-Vent Passageway: Tenka uses vents to escape the level he's in and to access different floors in the laboratories in more than one stage. Most of the time he needs to locate the grill and shoot it open first. | |

Cyborg | |
Codename: Tenka (Video Game) / int_99a12edd | comment |
Cyborg: Several of the human-sized enemies Tenka battles are half-humans, half-machines, with a glowing red eye and mechanical limbs while retaining organic features. It's unknown if they're genetically-enhanced mercenaries or captives of Trojan Incorporated subjected to Unwilling Roboticisation though. | |

Codename: Tenka (Video Game) / int_b2cdd776 | comment |
Bottomless Magazines: Like every Psygnosis-made FPS-style games, Tenka's default machine-gun contains unlimited ammunition. There is a counter that starts at 99 and goes down as he shoots, but the moment it hits zero Tenka reloads it with a two-second animation - back to kicking ass. | |

Timed Mission: There's more than one of these where Tenka needs to make a run through corridors or open areas acter triggering a lockdown. A circular timer appears onscreen, and if Tenka made it to the next exit he completes the level, otherwise he'll need to restart. | |

Outrun the Fireball: One of the stages have Tenka triggering the self-destruct mechanism of the level he's in, and he makes a hasty escape towards the only exit. Cue a cutscene of Tenka dashing down a corridor while fire from the exploding level pursues him. | |

Codename: Tenka (Video Game) / int_c3648b87 | comment |
Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: Tenka really isn't too enthusiastic about working together with Zenith, a strange, unknown AI that approached him out of nowhere. Given what she did to him in the final scene, Tenka's suspicions were Properly Paranoid. | |
