Distorted Travesty is a "Fast Paced Satirical Action Platformer" made in Game Maker by Dark Yoshi (aka. Zephyr Burst). It follows the story of two gamers with no clear goals in life. These two are Jerry, the most hardcore of hardcore gamers, and Jeremy, who partakes in some light hacking and playing jokes. You control Jerry, while Jeremy sits on the fourth wall and gives you aid throughout the game.One day, when they break into the Integrated Electronics Factory to teach its CEO about the greatness of Jerry's favorite game, a mysterious entity known as The Darkness comes and steals him away to another world, one which is composed of all the games the two have played since their youth. Their only hope of returning home is to collect the Seven Magical Flavored Muffins throughout the world and use them to defeat The Darkness once and for all, lest they miss a new episode of the best series ever. The game was completed on November 5, 2010.A short sequel, Distorted Travesty 2: The Sequel To The Prequel was released on April 7, 2011, and can be downloaded from the same site. In it, you play as Claire, Jerry's ex. Both Jerry and Jeremy make appearances in the game as well.A third entry in the series, Distorted Travesty 3: Saved Game, was released on October 6th, 2015. This entry in the series revolves around Jerry and Claire, chronicling their struggle to save the world against the threat introduced in the last game. Jeremy and his sister, Chao, return to provide help, guidance and (in Jeremy's case) snarky comments.A fourth game was annouced on 4/1/2023. Though little has been revealed about it, it appears to star Chao as the primary hero, going dungeon diving with a new friend. It is also reportedly going to be the most difficult game in the series.You can download the games here. But be warned, they ain't easy. | |

Snowy Screen of Death: When your health falls below 20%, the screen starts displaying static (accompanied by all sound effects and music becoming more low-pitched). Once you die, this is how you go out. This is also used as a build-up to the Wham Episode prior to entering Distortion Reckoning. | |

One out-of-the-way NPC conversation just before a level with lots of wind namedrops raocow directly, saying he's going to fall a lot in that level. Wind is one of raocow's least favorite game mechanics, as it tends to mess up jumps. raocow wondered what someone playing the game who had never heard of him would make of that statement. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Previous games were pretty light-hearted for the most part, and the worst that could happen (outside of the world-ending threat at the very end of the first game) was getting "quarantined", a fate that could always be reversed. Saved Game, while certainly not grimdark, has some darker themes to it, including actual and permanent character deaths and a war motivated by Fantastic Racism. | |

Early Game Hell: The early game is more difficult than that of its predecessors, thanks in no small part to the absence of weapons for the first few chapters of the game and the loss of the dash until Gate 3. | |

Multiple Endings | |
Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: The game originally had only one ending... an ending that caused a stir among the fans, to put it mildly. A later update added a "True" ending that can only be accessed by solving a rather obtuse puzzle (the game gives significant hints if you get the Standard ending), causing the endgame to go very differently. | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: The key to getting the True Ending is a gun that remained unfired since the first game. Jeremy had been told that he had the ability to perform a one-time "undo", forcing a system reset to an unspecified point back in time. He never got around to using this ability, and in fact forgot he even had it. Performing some actions leading to him remembering he can do this allows him to "undo" the events leading to the Standard ending and crush Hex's plans once and for all. | |

Some Dexterity Required | |
Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_273b4c2a | comment |
Some Dexterity Required: For crippling certain enemies or casting spells in rapid sequence to master certain segments or obtain powerups. There's the three basic buttons for moving and ducking, an up button for examining and opening things, a button for jumping and dashing, a button for standard attacks, two buttons for physical and spiritual techs, two buttons for cycling between elements, a pause button, a button for cycling through the spell list for your current element and a button for activating Rave Mode. That's more buttons then you can map on a 360 controller. No annoying combos, though. Dark Yoshi has since admitted that the control system was a mistake and unnecessarily complex, and focused on simplifying combat greatly in later installments. | |

Bag of Spilling: The player characters lose EVERY ability they once had right at the start of the game. Jeremy unlocks their ability to move early on, but everything else, including jumping and attacking, has to be earned later. Hexor once again removes all of their abilities except for the Mario-related ones during his boss fight, and while Jeremy is able to exploit a one-time loophole involving Kirby's Copy ability to get them back for the final battle, afterward they're gone for good. | |

Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_294ed981 | comment |
Bilingual Bonus: If you can decipher binary code, you'll find a few hidden messages here and there: In the trailer for the game, The Stinger has an image of Hexor in the Vault, with a long string of binary which reads "You didn't forget about me, did you?" When Jeremy is locked out of scanning enemies, his analysis will spew binary that spells "RESTRICTED". In the Vault, long strings of binary text occasionally scroll by, saying such things as "THIS WILL BE YOUR PRISON", "NO ESCAPE", and simply "DIE". They're implied to have been written by Hexor. | |

Stylistic Suck | |
Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_415b3315 | comment |
Stylistic Suck: "The Island of Paradise" in Gate 6, which is a barely-playable hodgepodge of bad graphics and nonsensical enemies. Naturally, Lampshaded up and down by the heroes. One corridor of "The Castle of Doom" in Gate 6 is a hastily-thrown together group of obstacles with no rhyme or reason to their design. Jeremy claims that whoever made that section was either really tired or really angry. Another Gate 6 example, before "fighting" the Trivia Lord, there is a hilariously Narmy bit of voice-acted dialog (provided by the real-life Jeremy) to serve as his introduction. It's as bad as you'd expect from an RPG game. | |

A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Played with. Once you figure out that The Darkness is nothing more than a video game maker, you begin to think this, but then you find out that it's only trying to protect itself. Once a greater threat appears, it actively helps you defeat it, since it would be protecting itself. It is also willing to try cooperation and co-existence, rather than conflict, if the other side offers it. | |

Death Is a Slap on the Wrist: Zig-Zagged. In short or easy rooms, it's not a big deal, as there's a checkpoint each room and the only thing you lose is Internetz dropped by enemies. But in lengthy rooms where you're certain to die a lot, death is NOT a slap on the wrist, as it forces you to go through the level all over again. The game also mocks you. Mercilessly...

Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_549cd62d | comment |
Level Grinding: Mostly subverted: While enemies do respawn after re-entering a room, they give rather low amounts of experience compared to what is needed to level up. However, in the caves you appear inside of after you leave Distortion Reckoning, there is a slime enemy that multiplies itself, and a platform right above where it roams. Sit on this platform for a while, and these slimes will eventually duplicate themselves into game-lagging amounts, giving you tons of experience. | |

Heroic Sacrifice: It is not realized until Gate 4 that The heroes of the respective worlds give their bodies and souls to the player characters to grant them their abilities. Whether they are actually dead or just taking up space in Jerry and Claire's somewhat sub-conscious minds is unknown at this point. Jerry doesn't take it too well. At the end of the game, this happens with not just Jeremy, but also Jerry and Claire in order to prevent the Warship from overloading and destroying the Mainland, leaving Chao as the sole survivor. | |

Random Encounters: Played with in Gate 2, where walking around in the overworld invokes this, but after obtaining the bow and arrow, Jeremy figures out how to alter the random encounters to how they worked in Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. This doesn't make avoiding battle too much easier, but it's at least an improvement to Jerry. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: A chest in Black Rock Fortress, which requires you to use an in-game glitch to get. To get it, you have to use Earth Shift to create a stone block on the floating platform next to the moving platform. After that, jump on the moving platform, and run into the block you created underneath it. Since the platform moves according to time and not variable checking, it'll move down eventually and let you get the chest. Also the method for dealing with the Ultimate Phalanx for the first time, if you don't pay too much attention to Jeremy's comments. | |

Designated Girl Fight | |
Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_8bb79fdf | comment |
Designated Girl Fight: Between Claire and the High Heels Girl in Gate 6. Enforced, even: Not only does Claire offer to fight her, Jerry can't damage her at all.* She's immune to every damage type except Normal. At this point in the gate, Jerry only has a Shot attack, and Claire only has a Normal attack. The boss fight against Cackletta in Gate 1 as well, due to Jerry refusing to fight her, leaving Claire to take care of it. | |

Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_8ee83b3e | comment |
Numerical Hard: The only difference between Beginner (easy) and Veteran (normal) difficulties, at least during boss fights, is the amount of damage you take and dish out. Somewhat averted for Distorted, though, which both increases the damage you take and adds back some content that was removed from the normal game because it was just plain unfair. | |

Foreshadowing: A good deal of it in gate 6, although some is only obvious in retrospect: NPCs can't hear Jeremy or Chao talking, yet the first one you encounter seems to reply to Jeremy. He's the Evil Overlord. And he can hear Jeremy. In the second town, one of the NPCs says that the aforementioned NPC "used to ask a lot of questions". Trivia questions. Another NPC in the second town doesn't want to think about what would happen if Great Evil Overlord were to come back, because they "simply don't have the answers!!" Literally. | |

Homage: The games' heavy tone of sarcasm aside, it's clear that they were created as a loving tribute to the classic side-scrollers of the creator's youth. Even the overly frustrating segments are something of a reference to the fact that many of those older games had overly frustrating segments of their own, as any gamer of the 90s or older can attest to. | |

Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_a6c69bd | comment |
MacGuffin: Lampshaded, as they're the 7 Magical Flavored Muffins. In reality, they are the seven Data Allocation Segments, specific pieces of code that grant almost total control over the program. Why they look (and apparently smell) like muffins is anyone's guess. | |

Rewarding Vandalism: Slightly; destroying random objects only gives you tiny amounts of experience, counts into kill chains, and sometimes drops items. | |

Reality-Breaking Paradox: How the Artist intends to destroy the Darkness: cause a divide by zero error. Jerry remarks on how strange it is that dividing by zero will actually destroy the world in this case. | |

Hidden Elf Village | |
Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_a971e83c | comment |
Hidden Elf Village: The, um, Hidden Bot Village. It's a place for bots who don't want to interact with humans to live, and is almost completely inaccessible from the outside, unless one gets permission from the inhabitants to enter. It should be noted that while the bots who live there don't particularly like humans, they are not hostile to humans; they just want to be left alone. Indeed, many of those bots choose to assist the heroes in battling against CHAOS, an army of bots who are hostile to humans. | |

Soundtrack Dissonance: Rose At Twilight, which was created as final boss music, is used as the Giant Space Flea from Nowhere filler boss theme. The result is largely unimportant boss fights with hilariously inappropriately epic music. | |

Living Shadow | |
Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_ad62678e | comment |
Living Shadow: Played around with in Extra Gate C. While enemy shadows are just plain shadows, Claire's shadow and the shadows of traps and switches act just like their solid counterparts, meaning even if you don't get hit by the trap itself, if a trap shadow hits your shadow, you still take damage. The flames also shift your shadow based on the angle, which is necessary for solving various puzzles. Inverted with the Wall Master in map 3, whose physical(?) body doesn't hurt you, but it's shadow does. This gets very annoying VERY FAST especially if you had trouble speeding through the previous maps out of careful timing. Darkmoor subverts this rule by his physical body AND his shadow doing damage, giving him extended attack range, as your attacks only hurt the main body. A few of the other Nightmare bosses could also qualify, such as Final Nightmare and Jerry's Shadow, an expy of the Shadow Link from Zelda 2. | |

In the Construction Site, at one point a CHAOS Spiderbot attacks you... but when it tries to use its antigravity maneuver to crawl on the ceiling, it apparently forgot that there is no ceiling and falls into the sky. The characters shrug, have a laugh, and move on. Many, many, many screens later, the Spiderbot falls from the sky in front of you at the entrance to the Magical Castle, instantly destroying itself. | |

Shout-Out | |
Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: In the main city of the game, two people by the names of Phil and Ned are conversing about the events of the game. Wonder if one of them is a weatherman. Also in Central City, there's a not-so-subtle shoutout to Hitchcock's The Birds in the alleyway. There are fair few shout outs to the Let's Player raocow, probably due to his LPs of the first two games greatly increasing people's awareness of them. One of the Enemy Scans mentions an LPer who says 'Podobo' a lot and plays a lot of Super Mario World hacks. One of the sarcastic death screens asks "That was a demo, wasn't it?", which is a Catchphrase of raocow's. One of the messages that appears when Claire is swapped in is "Angel on the warpath!", which was one of raocow's video titles for his Distorted Travesty 2 LP. One area of the game has music taken from raocow's own romhack, A Super Mario Thing, which surprised him greatly when he ran into it. An update to DT3 was called 'The "Ze-Fire" Edition', poking fun at how he pronounced ZephyrBurst's name. A secret area in Gate 3 of DT3 references a Running Gag of his in its Flavor Text: "Science can reward you sometimes." Amusingly, a later area's Flavor Text actually is more explicit, outright mentioning him by name. One of the messages when you swap Jerry in, "Jerry, let's get hairy!", was jokingly suggested by raocow himself during a nonsensical ramble after seeing the silly messages that were already in. Zephyr obliged in the following update. One out-of-the-way NPC conversation just before a level with lots of wind namedrops raocow directly, saying he's going to fall a lot in that level. Wind is one of raocow's least favorite game mechanics, as it tends to mess up jumps. raocow wondered what someone playing the game who had never heard of him would make of that statement. One area's window title has a twofer: "Video games on motorcycles, final lap. Are you a bad enough dude to push the buttons?!" One area's window title is "Let's play a game of ice and fire." | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: A couple of these were included in a later update to the game, most notably being the fact that save rooms fully restore your health and spirit AND have a healing point inside.note Prior to the update, save rooms wouldn't heal you, but would greatly increase the regen rate of your spirit, meaning the only way to heal without items would be to spam Nature's Gift until full health, at EVERY save point | |

Check-Point Starvation | |
Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_f09021fe | comment |
Checkpoint Starvation: You thought some rooms in the first game were bad? This game features several large, sometimes maze-like rooms that require you to go on switch hunts. If you die at any time during one of these rooms, you'll have to restart, with all your progress in the room being lost. Notable examples include a fair amount of Nightmare Gate 2 and the Mountain Temple, to name a couple. Gate 5, being based on Metroid, employs its own checkpoint system so you don't even get a checkpoint at the start of each room. Better not forget to make use of those checkpoints often, or you'll have a LOT to redo. | |

Brick Joke: In one of the Brutal Bonus Levels, you get this window title: Two screens later, there's a room with electrical currents, with this window title: In the Construction Site, at one point a CHAOS Spiderbot attacks you... but when it tries to use its antigravity maneuver to crawl on the ceiling, it apparently forgot that there is no ceiling and falls into the sky. The characters shrug, have a laugh, and move on. Many, many, many screens later, the Spiderbot falls from the sky in front of you at the entrance to the Magical Castle, instantly destroying itself. Way back in the first game, Jerry and Jeremy's motivation to go back home was to catch the last episode of the best show ever. Jerry brings it back during a conversation in the Mario segment, understandably upsetting Jeremy. | |

Talking Is a Free Action | |
Distorted Travesty (Video Game) / int_ff5a74c8 | comment |
Talking Is a Free Action: Lampshaded heavily, parodied, and invoked in the cutscene prior to the Arrghus battle, where Jeremy purposefully keeps talking so that the boss won't attack, and also goes off on a tangent to chat about Jerry's preference in video game genres while doing so. It's also Deconstructed for humor: Jerry, and by extension the player, keeps getting distracted by the textboxes, which of course impairs his skills, and he has to repeatedly remind people of that fact during hard platforming sections. | |
