Can't Believe I Said That: In chapter 7, after Fang tells Naomi to "fuck off". One of the optional scenes is to talk with Naser, where he will admonish them for saying it. Fang will admit they "can't believe I said that", to which he replies "neither can I". | |

Goodbye Volcano High (Video Game) / int_12beeeb2 | comment |
Non-Heteronormative Society: Suberted. At first, the game's LGBT characters don't seem to have any social problems at all, and Fang faces no issues having their name and pronouns recognized by their friends, brother, and even authority figures like Ms. Roberts and LJ. However, it's later shown that Fangs's parents still deadname and misgender them, and Rosa and Sage, both of whom are transgender, are having struggles of their own. | |

Apocalypse Anarchy | |
Goodbye Volcano High (Video Game) / int_1865f13a | comment |
Apocalypse Anarchy: A slow-burn example. After news of the asteroid comes out, for a while, the panic is mostly relegated to social media. As it seems like it's getting closer, it starts affecting the mental health of the students. After the asteroid's electromagnetism causes the permanent aurora borealis in the sky at the end of episode 5, the panic sets in for real. Classes are suspended indefinitely at Volcano High and the school is immediately vandalized, many shops in town shut down, and Caldera Bay becomes a ghost town. | |

Big First Choice | |
Goodbye Volcano High (Video Game) / int_1a888076 | comment |
Big First Choice: Played with and subverted. The first choice the player is given is whether or not to burn the yearbook. From the player's perspective, it's the first choice they get to make, but in the story, it's framed Fang's final choice before the asteroid hits. Come episode 7, the player is finally given the scene's context and the yearbook is burnt regardless of the player's choice; the only difference is if the player chose "Hold on", Fang will hesitate and need encouragement to follow through. | |

Brutal Honesty: Fang can do this based on some player choices in episode 2: After the school assembly, if the player chose not to sit with Trish and Rosa, Naomi will come up to Fang and ask them how she did with her announcements. Fang has the option of telling her outright that she did a poor job. After the Battle of the Band audition, Trish mentions she bailed a few times and wonders if LJ noticed. Fang has the option of giving a harsh, critical response, souring Trish's mood. | |

Apathetic Citizens: When news of the possible asteroid first breaks, lots of people are dismissive and joke about it, as seen on Fang's social media timelines. Once the asteroid gets close enough for its electromagnetic field to cause a permanent aurora in the sky, the apathy gives way to panic. | |

Anachronistic Animal | |
Goodbye Volcano High (Video Game) / int_280d7f43 | comment |
Anachronistic Animal: There's multiple uses of the ":3" emoji in-universe. The most obvious one is Claire's social media avatar, which is one of the boys from Swamp Babies with cat ears, whiskers, and a ":3" face drawn on. Problem is: cats don't exist yet. In fact, mammals in general are just beginning to evolve, let alone felines. Trish mentions that her L&L character uses a bat. She quickly clarifies that she means a "baseball bat" and not the animal "bat", which is rather unnecessary considering bats (the animal) won't possibly exist for millions of years. | |

Easter Egg: If the party goes to the library during the first session, a very small select-able spot can be found under one of the broken shelves.

It's especially evident in Episode 5, where each card Fang can pull at Battle of the Bands serves as Five-Second Foreshadowing: The Fool (Fang's impulsive solo performance), Death (Fang and Trish's fallout breaking up Worm Drama), and The Star (Fang meeting their secret admirer after the band breakup). | |

Only One Save File: There can only be one saved game at a time, and starting a new game will clear out the previous save. While it's possible to get around this on the Steam version*By disabling save game cloud syncing, the player can copy the saved game out of the game's directory and replace it with another, there's no such luck for the PlayStation 4 and 5 versions. | |

Foregone Conclusion: They are dinosaurs and an asteroid is coming to hit Earth. The conclusion is obvious to anyone who knows even the very basics of dinosaur history.

Noodle Incident: Rosa's papier-mâché volcano incident in second grade, which (according to Trish) caused the teacher to quit. Trish had an incident involving worms and one of Fang's mom's dresses, something Fang notes that their mom still isn't over. | |

Do Not Go Gentle: The final episode of the game consists of Fang and their friends deciding to put on their own music festival and invite the entire city a day before the asteroid hits. Sure, the asteroid will kill them all, but Fang achieves their dream of putting on a killer musical performance in front of a crowd of fans. Reed refers to it as "Rage Against the Asteroid". The achievement for completing this performance with 90% score or better is even named "Out with a Bang". | |

Goodbye Volcano High (Video Game) / int_415b3315 | comment |
Stylistic Suck: All the songs have a deliberate slight "unfinished" quality to them; some lack proper beginnings or endings, sometimes the mixing isn't perfect, and some have gibberish filler lyrics. This was done to illustrate how Fang is still a young musician and learning to perfect their craft. | |

Love Hurts | |
Goodbye Volcano High (Video Game) / int_424d15ad | comment |
Love Hurts: Naomi had been in love with Fang for a long time, but Fang was too focused on their music aspirations to notice, and Fang has a bad habit of being avoidant around Naomi, especially in the early episodes. Fang becomes infatuated with their secret admirer, but looks unnerved upon finding out their true identity. Finally, the bonfire argument ends with Fang telling Naomi to "fuck off", sending her running off in tears. The player can further invoke this trope by choosing to be cold and distant towards Naomi throughout the game, stand her up after Battle of the Bands, and finally choose to just friends with her instead of dating her. | |

Logging onto the Fourth Wall | |
Goodbye Volcano High (Video Game) / int_43be2121 | comment |
Logging onto the Fourth Wall: Several. Reed links to "memearchive.biz" in episode 1, joking about how there's already a meme page about the asteroid within hours of it being identified. Seems to have been nabbed by a fan and now hosts, as expected, a meme about the asteroid that was featured in the game. In the same chapter, Reed also links to "scientificdaily.pga" as the first confirmation of the incoming asteroid. ".pga" likely being a reference to regional Top Level Domains; in this case, Pangea, the supercontinent the story takes place on. "yootoob.com" is linked several times as a stand-in for YouTube. | |

At the end of episode 5, the asteroid causes a city-wide power outage, and a permanent aurora borealis lights up the sky. The episode ends with Fang and Naser staring up at it, eyes wide in horror. Episode 6 opens with an interior shot of Volcano High vandalized and abandoned, and a sheet announcing the suspension of all classes. At the end of episode 7, Naomi mentions that since the whole friend group has now joined Fang's band, they need to do the Worm Drama pre-show ritual. She pulls out the Volcano High yearbook, first seen at the beginning of the game, revealing its significance to the story. | |

Painting the Medium: Character names above their dialogue are dictated by how Fang knows them. Family, teachers, and close friends will have their names written normally, but random students may have fuzzier ones like 'Theatre girl' or 'I really need to learn this guy's name'. Dialogue options Fang is nervous or unsure about may turn to static when hovered over, and be replaced with one of their intrusive thoughts. If the sentence is hard to say for them, it may require multiple clicks before they finally spit it out. Dialogue options with intense emotion behind them like steely bluntness, anger, or excitement may have special effects on their boxes. | |

But Thou Must!: Because the game is being told from Fang's perspective, choices are based on their current emotional state, meaning in some emotionally tense scenes, no "good" options are available. This is most noticeable in episode 3's scene of Fang and Naser arguing, and in episode 5's scene of Fang and Trish arguing over Trish quitting the band. | |

Author Avatar: The developers have stated on Discord that they all have at least one appearance of their own "dinosonas" in the background of the game somewhere. Some have revealed theirs on social media, but others have chosen to keep them private and simply blend in with the background characters. | |

Interface Screw: The game portrays Fang's intrusive thoughts as this. These are shown as choices that sound out of Fang's character, and if you try to target them, the option will shimmer and turn gray, explaining why Fang wouldn't say or do that. | |

Cosmic Horror Story | |
Goodbye Volcano High (Video Game) / int_6a1c2a6 | comment |
Cosmic Horror Story: The campaign is steadily influenced by the out-of-universe circumstances into becoming such a tale. Braxus, an eldritch manifestation of the anxiety and dread induced by the asteroid, threatens the game's setting with absolute destruction. Said campaign ends with the heroes defeating Braxus, only to be die shortly afterwards and be forgotten. However, Reed and Fang later come to see the campaign as Lovecraft Lite, since Braxus was slain and life continues, with their heroes reincarnated as stars in the sky. | |

Guide Dang It!: The game tells the player that some choices will affect Fang's relationships with other characters, and it shows an "affinity" chart showing how close each character is with them. What's not told is that there's an eighth measurement that tracks Fang's self-worth (an "affinity" value for themself) that can also be raised by the player's choices and can unlock certain scenes. | |

Burn Baby Burn: Before any concert, Fang and Trish have a ritual where they burn a piece of written literature — business cards, books, papers, etc. — as a sacrifice to ensure their band has a successful show. The Volcano High yearbook, which was shown in the game's reveal trailer being dropped into a bonfire by Fang. The book was made by Naomi and offered as sacrifice for the Worm Drama ritual before the group plans their final concert. | |

Cell Phones Are Useless: Subverted. Even when there's only hours before the asteroid hits, power, cell phones, internet, and social media are all working perfectly fine. Odd, considering power and cell service having problems due to the electromagnetism of the meteor was a plot point for the first five episodes. | |

Trish and Rosa are implied to have feelings for each other, but whether or not they're dating is left ambiguous. And the player can enforce this trope by choosing for Fang to be just friends with Naomi. | |

Point of No Return: A rare narrative game example. Episode 6 is the final part in which the player can earn affinity points with the other characters. Once the episode is finished, the rest of the game plays out based on the current affinity levels, which determine who Fang can talk to at the bonfire (episode 7), if the player sees the secret scene of Fang and Trish reconciling (episode 8), and what photos are unlocked in the game's final moments. | |

The context of the scene finally comes into play at the end of episode 7. | |

Naomi reveals herself to be Fang's secret admirer, but Fang is too shaken up by their fallout with Trish to act on it. Worse, the asteroid's magnetic field causes rolling blackouts and a permanent aurora borealis in the sky, causing a global panic. | |

Art Shift: In Fang's imagination sequences, the art style shifts to a grayscale illustrated style with static images and white backgrounds. When playing the "Legends & Lore" sessions, the style shifts to a typical Visual Novel layout (large text box in the center, with character sprites appearing behind it when speaking, and no voice acting, save for Reed's narration). The characters have a more illustrated look with less details, and the backgrounds have a painting-like look to them. | |

Interface Spoiler: The achievement for seeing all the extra content featuring Naomi is called "Pretty Heroes." In episode 3, Fang and their secret admirer briefly reminisce about a show from their childhoods called "Pretty Heroes". Guess who the secret admirer is. | |

Foreshadowing | |
Goodbye Volcano High (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Early in episode 2, when Fang and Reed are alone on the roof, Reed says the roof would be a great spot to be when the asteroid hits. In the final episode, the school roof is used as the venue for the final Worm Drama concert on the day the asteroid is meant to hit. Late in episode 2, it's shown that Fang and Trish have a ritual they perform before any band performance where they burn written material, such as business cards, as a sacrifice. This ends up being why the yearbook is burnt in episode 7, as a means of inducting the new incarnation of Worm Drama. Stella's Tarot card readings foreshadow various events that will happen in the story regardless of what card is pulled. It's especially evident in Episode 5, where each card Fang can pull at Battle of the Bands serves as Five-Second Foreshadowing: The Fool (Fang's impulsive solo performance), Death (Fang and Trish's fallout breaking up Worm Drama), and The Star (Fang meeting their secret admirer after the band breakup). | |

Wanted a Gender-Conforming Child | |
Goodbye Volcano High (Video Game) / int_9d6f34b2 | comment |
Wanted a Gender-Conforming Child: Both of Fang's parents are dismissive of their identity, with their mother outright refusing to call them Fang, instead continuing to use their birth name, Fatima. It isn't until the final video call before the last concert that Fang's mother actually refers to them as 'Fang' in a teary goodbye. A miss-able cutscene with Sage also reveals the same: his parents are not happy with him transitioning, and mostly consider it a joke. Making things even worse, after transitioning to male, he then chooses to dress and act feminine, which only earns him more ridicule from family. | |

Dramatic Irony: Episode 1 is full of this. The first day of senior year (before the asteroid is discovered) has the dinosaurs talking about their future ambitions after graduation, something the player knows they'll never get to experience. Fang also invites Naomi to see Worm Drama perform, telling her "we're about to blow up". In episode 2, if Fang hangs back in the auditorium scene, they complain that Trish and Rosa didn't save a seat for them, and show envy over their growing friendship. But choosing to sit with them reveals that Rosa did save a seat for Fang, right next to Trish. | |

Fang and Naser's parents are only seen through video calls, and the others characters' parents are only mentioned in passing. Even at the concert before the asteroid hits, the only two adults visible in the audience are LJ and Ms. Roberts. | |

The first song is "Begin Again" and is the song used to demonstrate the game's rhythm elements. The second song is "Pretty Heroes", and its first two verses are written by Fang in episode 3. Two more verses of the song can be changed in episode 8 if Fang and Naomi begin a relationship, and Fang goes on a date with her. | |

Fang talks about how their parents seem to be waiting for Fang to settle on being "normal", to which Fang concludes: "Dude, fuck that. We don't owe them 'normal'." In episode 5, during the Battle of the Bands, Fang says "Fuck it." as they go on stage to perform solo despite the power outage triggered by the asteroid. In episode 7, said by Fang during the bonfire scene: "Oh, fuck off, Naomi." This is such a precision strike that Fang and Reed both cringe afterwards, joking that it was a "critical hit". | |

Fang in turn points out that Naser doesn't have any career goals at all, and he's doing what his parents expect of him instead of choosing what he wants to be. Naser realizes they're right, and the two come to an understanding, ending the argument. | |

Hope Spot: In a radio broadcast, scientists announce their predictions that the asteroid will make a close pass but miss the planet by a margin of 20-30%, ignoring an independent astronomer claiming otherwise. The end of episode 5 makes it clear the asteroid is going to hit. | |

Artistic License – Chemistry: Averted, though it is a common misconception that many players fall for. Oil and gasoline are seen to be used in-universe, and a character asks what they will use "once all the dead plant juice is used up". Most people think this is a joke referencing that the dinosaurs turned into modern day oil, but this isn't true — crude oil is primarily made of zooplankton and algae, despite the name "fossil fuel". | |

Goodbye Volcano High (Video Game) / int_d32cd9f5 | comment |
Cast Full of Gay: Basically the entire main cast is some flavor of LGBT. Fang is an AFAB non-binary that can enter a relationship with Naomi, a cis woman. Trish, a cis woman, and Rosa, a trans woman, are heavily implied to be in a relationship. Finally, there's Sage, a trans man, and Stella, a cis woman, who are also somewhat implied to be a couple. Reed, a cis male, is shown to be flirting with a boy in text messages in a flashback, and we later see them together at prom. The only character suspected of being cis and straight is Naser, who early in the game is thought to be romancing Naomi, but ultimately is only good friends with her and remains single by the end of the game. | |

When playing the "Legends & Lore" sessions, the style shifts to a typical Visual Novel layout (large text box in the center, with character sprites appearing behind it when speaking, and no voice acting, save for Reed's narration).

Old Shame: Fang has some of this regarding Worm Drama's past. It's implied the band's music used to be much more crude, with their more popular songs being titled Puke Factory, Gym Teacher Sex Dream, and Get Bent Jimmy Two-Face, along a mention they are banned from performing at a local retirement home because of it. While we never hear these songs, the names alone are very different from anything we hear Worm Drama play, and Fang openly tells the group they need to go a different direction if they want to win the Battle of the Bands. | |

Running Gag | |

Running Gag: Any mention of Worm Drama's old song "Puke Factory" is followed up by Fang cheerfully saying "Everyone loves Puke Factory." | |

Friendly Rivalry | |
Goodbye Volcano High (Video Game) / int_fbd5fda1 | comment |
Friendly Rivalry: Worm Drama vs Swamp Babies. Trish and Reed both openly dislike Swamp Babies, but Fang never shows them any hostility and admits they are good on a technical level. Swamp Babies at one point tries to recruit Fang into their band, as well, showing they respect Worm Drama musically on some level too. In the final scene, they are shown to be there at Worm Drama's last show, too, crying. | |

Video Game Cruelty Punishment | |
Goodbye Volcano High (Video Game) / int_fcd993bd | comment |
Video Game Cruelty Punishment: Choosing to be as much of a jerk to Fang's friends, acquaintances, and brother will cause the characters to react accordingly. And much of the game's content is locked behind being nice to everyone, which triggers scenes, flashbacks, and photos, meaning players choosing to be cruel won't experience significant portions of the game's content. | |
