Here Comes Niko! is a Collect-a-Thon Platformer developed by Frog Vibes and published by Gears for Breakfast (the creators of A Hat in Time). It was released for PC on August 3, 2021, and Nintendo Switch on September 1, 2022.Niko has an internship with Tadpole Inc. to become a "professional friend", going from island to island in order to help other people out. Catch fish, create art, play volleyball, plant flowers, and explore the various locales... oh, and try to ignore your Mom's voice mails wondering why you've run away from home. | |

Unexpected Gameplay Change | |
| Here Comes Niko! (Video Game) / int_1467a30c | comment |
Unexpected Gameplay Change: There's an island off from the Public Pool that can only be reached by using a soda can. While there, you can't rotate the camera, so you're forced to make your way through the area as if it were a side-scroller. At one point, Niko says that playing this way suits them, likely because like almost everyone else in the game, they are in a 2D style. At Gary's Garden, you aren't able to fall into the water until the quest is completed, and there are checkpoints, as well as obstacles in the form of scissors that will send you back to the last checkpoint if they touch you (the same goes if you land in the water). | |

Totem Pole Trench: The Frogtective investigating a popped floatie at the Public Pool is clearly three regular frogs with a trench coat and a hat. | |

Furry Confusion | |
| Here Comes Niko! (Video Game) / int_27a40541 | comment |
Furry Confusion: One of the animals you can catch for Fischer is an axolotl, which he says looks like someone he knows. Later on, you meet several anthropomorphic axolotls. Downplayed as the non-anthro axolotl isn't actually seen together with the anthro ones. | |

Friendly Skeleton: At the Bathhouse, going through the line of white Torii gates to find the lost axolotl child Skippy leads to a giant skull rising up from the waters...who turns out to be a friendly spirit that was just playing board games with the kid while waiting for someone to pick him up. | |

Surprisingly Creepy Moment | |
| Here Comes Niko! (Video Game) / int_4fa637b0 | comment |
Surprisingly Creepy Moment: Whenever you've collected enough bugs for Blessley, she will creepily demand that you give them to her, and then eat them all while the screen goes dark and the music gets creepy, and Niko watches in horror. At the bathhouse, inspecting the tunnel will result in a light suddenly appearing as if a train was approaching while everything else distorts around it. | |

Queer Colors | |
| Here Comes Niko! (Video Game) / int_548a339 | comment |
Queer Colors: The game's title uses light blue, pink, and white, the colors of the transgender flag. Niko, who has the same colors in their outfit, is strongly implied to be nonbinary/agender, as they are only referred to with they/them pronouns, and it's hinted that this is why they have a bad relationship with their mother. | |

Fishing for Sole: A task that occurs on multiple islands is to help Fischer the fisherman, but if Niko doesn't dive where there's a fish jumping out of the water, they'll just pull up trash. | |

Bait-and-Switch: At the Public Pool, there are three diving boards at different heights. You might think that you'll encounter Dustan at the highest one, but instead you find Fischer, and Dustan doesn't appear at the Public Pool at all. | |

Abusive Parents | |
| Here Comes Niko! (Video Game) / int_b11ac9f5 | comment |
Abusive Parents: As Niko progresses through the islands, the voice mails from their Mom become more abusive. The one before the Public Pool has her offer to take Niko to a doctor to try and "Fix" them, and the one before Tadpole HQ has her demand that Niko return home so their family can stop looking for them, frustrated that she couldn't have a "Normal" child. However, Dad is trying his best to protect Niko, and advocates for Niko taking some time away from Mom, as seen in the ending. | |

No Antagonist: The game doesn't have a Big Bad, enemies, or even any way to take damage. The closest it comes to an antagonist is Niko's mother, whose role is limited to a handful of messages and being the reason Niko took the job that led to the game's events. | |

There are also various island-specific tasks, such as helping the Frogtective solve their case at the Public Pool. | |
