Diabolus ex Nihilo | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_13a499b8 | comment |
Diabolus ex Nihilo: The titular villain is one of these: for some reason, it just showed up one day, dead set on killing Jimmy. Everything that comes out of its mouth(s) is a long tirade about how much it hates Jimmy and how gruesome his death will be. Every other antagonistic force in-game has deeper motives, including the ones that it corrupted. Which makes perfect sense when its true nature becomes apparent. | |

Startled stuns a character for a turn, but to prevent stun-locking, they become Alert for a few rounds. Repeatedly Startling a character will make them Alert for longer. There are also variants like Afraid, Heartbroken, and Crying, which aren't blocked by Alert and may last multiple rounds. | |

Heroic Mime: Jimmy. You do get his thoughts on some areas if you press A, though. The party member descriptions in the status menu are also done from Jimmy's point of view. Averted with the second Jimmy in Central Stamen, who has quite a lot to say about you, and none of it is very nice. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything? | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The Pulsating Mass is a malignant all-consuming blob of flesh that rots and corrupts everything it touches, and nothing seems to be capable of putting it down. In other words, cancer. The metaphors become more prevalent after the game's Wham Episode, especially in Central Stamen, where Jimmy collects "medicine" that alleviates the worst of the Buddy Bees' symptoms but also makes him weak, nauseated, and sleepy, much like chemotherapy. In Heart Prison, he gives an especially sick Buddy Bee all three types of medicine at once... only for the Bee to die anyway, its last words asking how Jimmy can possibly stand taking so much. | |

Your Head Asplode: According to Punch Tanaka in the postgame, this is how he died - the possessed Buck punched him in the face so hard his head burst. The fate of the Information Guy during the arena tournament in Kingland. He gets paired with the resident champion Bashicus Maximus: we don't see the fight, but it lasts literally a couple seconds and Bashicus says he smashed Information Guy's head just by touching him. | |

The Medic | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_1bf47ada | comment |
The Medic: Multiple: The Happy Little Sunflower's skillset is comprised mainly of healing abilities. Its one offensive skill is an anti-undead light spell. Helga becomes the dedicated healer for the party, with access to both High Five and Comforting Smile. She even has exclusive access to the best group healing skill in the game. Jonathon Bear is mostly support — he comes with his own healing and curing skills, his passive makes him an Item Caddy, and his unique equipment can augment how he can support the party. Jimmy's Phoenix form, unlockable by completing the volcano dungeon, is also a powerful healer with access to the strongest revival skill in the game. He can also sacrifice himself once per battle to completely heal the rest of the party. | |

My Name Is ???: Used for people who speak from off screen: The "???" that calls "Jimmy, wait!" when he enters the Giant Garden after the Petty Thugs leave, is revealed to be "Timothy Mouse" after he walks up to Jimmy. In the Buddy Bees' hive, the Queen Bee first talks from off screen, as "???", letting Buck and Jimmy pass her guards. A number of locations on the world map (typically more mysterious and/or secret places) are listed simply as "???". Some of them get proper names as you explore the locations further, while others remain nameless. | |

So Long, and Thanks for All the Gear: Averted — Any time you lose long-term access to a party member, all their equipment will be automatically returned to your inventory. In fact, if a party member's equipment isn't returned to your inventory after Jimmy is separated from them, you can bet they'll become available again soon. | |

Noir Episode | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_246330ec | comment |
Noir Episode: The Mute Notes area in Sweet Melody is a noir-esque area. The club, Wharf Dog, is attacked by a murderer who kills a victim via Lights Off, Somebody Dies, and the wannabe-Hardboiled Detective Inspector Ludwig investigates who the culprit is. The area even has noir-style jazz as the Background Music. And then the culprit turns out to be an Eldritch Abomination possessing a dog. | |

Status Effects | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_2639f6eb | comment |
Status Effects: Sick, which deals 10% of a party member's maximum health at the start of a round. There's also Acid and Poison (which the player can use and deals damaged based on the user's MAT,) and Infested, which is used solely by the Gut Worm enemy and deals 60% of a character's health per turn. Startled stuns a character for a turn, but to prevent stun-locking, they become Alert for a few rounds. Repeatedly Startling a character will make them Alert for longer. There are also variants like Afraid, Heartbroken, and Crying, which aren't blocked by Alert and may last multiple rounds. Ennui, which is inflicted by Rad Ghosts (and their Super version) prevents the affected party member from gaining EXP from that encounter. It's especially infuriating as it's inflicted by a Metal Slime. Terminal, which kills a character after 3 turns and is only used by Super Deathbot 5000 and The Whisper Weaver. Stat-altering status effects like Sticky, which reduces Agility by 50% (a variant of Slow). Special note goes to Hyper, which doubles speed and MP costs. | |

One-Time Dungeon: Subverted with the Iron Flamingo — after it seems that you've been ejected from it for good, you can eventually find the crashed ship in a distant island and can reclaim any treasure you missed. You lose access to the pristine Central Hub when the Pulsating Mass swallows it. Even in the post-game, the rest of the Pulsating Mass still persists, though you cannot rematch with the final boss. Jimmy gets briefly sent to the moon to reunite with his family and Lars after escaping the Central Hub. Hitomi offers him a spaceship to return to his world. | |

Time Stands Still: There's a clock tower in Legato with a large button that controls it. Slamming it in Bear form causes time to grind to a halt in town, stopping the BGM and preventing Jimmy from interacting with any of the townsfolk until the button is slammed again. It's also needed to get to the lightbulb in the castle dungeon. | |

After defeating the Petty Thugs at their HQ for the first time, Jimmy can then go and get the honey from the Beehive, or enter a Bonus Dungeon. Either way, what was previously a lighthearted, kid-friendly adventure abruptly turns horrifying- the bonus dungeon is a dark, claustrophobic cave with creepy music and a scary snake boss, while the Beehive is now corrupted and the inhabitants have been turned into zombies with rotting flesh. | |

Death Is Cheap | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_37fcf16 | comment |
Death Is Cheap: Generally, dying causes you to lose half of the cash you're carrying and boots you to the world map (or some other safe place). In the Dark Dungeon, you lose all the Dungeon Points earned that run instead. Exaggerated with the Life Insurance, which you get by defeating Mr. Grouse.

Crapsaccharine World | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_3b79029a | comment |
Crapsaccharine World: Dreamland may look like an idyllic paradise but under the surface it is filled with horrifying abominations and locations that represent various phobias. It’s heavily implied that the Pulsating Mass is responsible for the various horrors in both a literal (being the entity that corrupted the world’s inhabitants) and figurative (being a manifestation of Jimmy’s terminal cancer which corrupted his childlike innocence) sense. | |

Magikarp Power | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_3f0310d6 | comment |
Magikarp Power: At the start of the game, Jimmy has no innate abilities barring his transformations, and ending a battle un-transformed means that none of his transformations earn any experience and get no progress towards unlocking a skill or stat boost. As you progress through the game and develop your transformations, you begin to unlock passive skills which aren't innate to the transformations, and a base form Jimmy can benefit from three at once, compared to one for his transformations. By the end-game, if you develop things right, base form Jimmy is easily the strongest and most versatile party member. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: Verging on Downer Ending. The implication is that Jimmy has terminal cancer, represented by the Pulsating Mass itself, and is full of self-loathing at his weakness and the pain that his sickness has caused others. The "victory" he achieves by the end of the game just allows him to forgive himself and die in peace. The Mouse family sidequest concludes this way as well. Cordelia is kidnapped by Mr. Cat, and you arrive far too late to save her from being brutally raped and murdered. You do kill Mr. Cat, thereby avenging her death (and the deaths of his other implied victims) and sparing future victims. But Mrs. Mouse dies from grief not long after. At the very least, Timothy returns home to be with his family as they try to move on. | |

Ambiguous Ending | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_42215dce | comment |
Ambiguous Ending: After seemingly defeating the Pulsating Mass once and for all, Jimmy winds up back in his house. From there, he can either select party members from across the entire game and re-enter the dream world through his closet, or he can leave his house through the front door. Leaving this way causes Jimmy to wind up in a world devoid of any color, almost looking like it was drawn entirely in pencil. Jimmy can't re-enter his house from here, claiming he can't remember what the inside looks like, so there's only one direction to go. During this entire segment, you can hear the sound of a heart monitor beeping in the background. After travelling for long enough through the now barren landscape, Jimmy walks over to the edge of the very cliff where Helga woke him up at the beginning of the game. A cut-scene then plays where we're shown a close-up of Jimmy looking over the horizon and saying "I'm Sorry"... which then bends into a straight, flat line. After one last title drop, the game fades to white, and the player is booted back to the title screen. | |

Book Ends: You begin the game with Buck as your only party member. You fight The Pulsating Mass with just you and Buck at the very end. You start your adventure with Helga asking you to get some honey. The last thing you hear from her before the credits roll is a request for the same thing, but she says she's only joking, and offers to stop by the store instead. You start the game proper by directing Jimmy across a cloud bridge to get home. The game's true end sees Jimmy leaving his home, crossing the same cloud bridge, and returning to the very spot where he began the game to finally pass on. | |

Magic Knight: Andrew is normally a Squishy Wizard with very low attack that relies mainly on spells to deal damage, but equip him with the Encyclopedia Set or Advanced Calculus (provided he has the correct amount of lost HP) and his attack stat skyrockets, making his physical attacks give even Punch Tanaka a run for his money while still letting him fire off decent spells if the need arrives. | |

Vengeful Abandoned Toy | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_61dd80f | comment |
Jonathon Bear was Jimmy's favorite teddy bear toy who was locked away by the boy out of guilt over the fact that the boy shoplifted him. As he was revealed to be vengeful over his abandonment, serving as the Grim Echoes' Arc Villain, Jonathonland shows the situation from his perspective, depicting him in a much more sympathetic light: he used to be an obsolete and outdated model of Jonathon Bear plush toy line, but Jimmy liked him more than the newer models. However, he was too expensive, so his mother refused to buy him. As a result, Jimmy decided to shoplift him, lying that Jonathon was his grandmother's gift as an excuse. They used to play together all the time, but the guilt over shoplifting the teddy bear eventually led to Jimmy hiding and locking him away in the closet, and as the story ends, the camera pans on Jonathon Bear's torn-up and ruined body, with Helga expressing sympathy for Jonathon in spite of his past deeds. | |

An Edge from the Triangle, Square, Pentagon, and Hexagon enemies, which turns the enemy into the one with one less side- or, if you steal it from the Triangle, makes it cease to exist because there is no shape with two edges. | |

Welcome to Corneria: Deconstructed after beating Information Isle - the reason all Information Guys repeat the same spiels every time they're talked to is that they only know how to say that specific spiel and "Would you like me to repeat that?" without even knowing what they mean. | |

Cosmetic Award: Your reward for extensively playing through the Post-End Game Content are animation stones, which unlock different short films in a small side area of Shinryu. You obtain them by accomplishing incredible feats like beating the ultimate superboss or going the extra mile to get all Arena rewards, but they don't affect the final outcome of the game. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: Triggering the Beach Babe Optional Boss fight in Bonita Vista. Unlike all the other bosses, who are found in fixed locations, the Beach Babe is disguised as a random encounter in Bonita Vista- and since you are likely to be at a level high enough to be able to skip random encounters, and the temporary absence of your healer can turn you off from fighting too much, you are all too likely to choose to skip the area’s battles and never come into contact with the boss. | |

Zero-Effort Boss | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_6edb0066 | comment |
It even works on some bosses. In the first battle against Johnny Knives, stealing his Knives turns him into the depressed Zero-Effort Boss Johnny No-Knives. Meanwhile, the Black Prophet and GAMM-E Optional Boss battles allow you to steal objects to give yourself more time and damage the boss, respectively. The Golden King, in his first fight, has four treasures that, when stolen, will lower his defense and give you a bigger reward, but make him stronger, while the rematch requires you to steal those treasures to be able to damage him at all. | |

Calling Your Attacks | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_71bd62b9 | comment |
Calling Your Attacks: A common feature for many enemies in the game. If an enemy spends a turn doing nothing, chances are they're going to launch a strong attack next turn. Punch Tanaka has this as a special ability. Using it causes his next attack to do double damage. Parodied, as he's calling shots for pool...in the middle of a battle. | |

There's also Sunny Day, learned from a manual and exclusive to Helga, which will heal the entire party by 75% of their HP. Helping Hands is an equipment exclusive to Jonathon Bear that replaces his basic attack with a group heal. Jimmy's Phoenix form has Sacred Flame, a 50% health revive, Calming Breeze, which heals everyone for 50% HP, and Sacrifice, a once-per-battle skill that renders Jimmy unconscious, but revives and fully restores everyone else's HP and MP. | |

Mini-Game: A few: The Dark Dungeon is a 100-floor dungeon that plays like a board game. You roll a die to move along, fighting monsters and collecting unique treasure as well as Dungeon Points, which can be banked and spent on a variety of items. After defeating Chancellor Pulsating Mass, the Arena becomes open for business. In it, you battle up to seven waves of enemies while under the effect of a random handicap. Winning battles gives you points to spend on equipment. By beating all seven waves or buying the trophy with points, you can fight a boss to unlock the next rank. The Arcade in Shinryu has four mini-games. There's a Skee-ball game, a Whack-a-mole game, a Rock-Paper-Scissors game, and a timing-based game called 'Punch Tanaka's Ultimate Man Test.' The games all give tickets that can be redeemed at the counter for various items and equipment, though if you don't feel like grinding it out, you can instead purchase tickets with money. | |

Bears Are Bad News: The boss encountered in Fermata Forest is a large grizzly bear. It is not happy to see you and proceeds to attack. Jimmy can invoke this trope once he beats it and gains the bear transformation, which you can use to prove you are indeed bad news to others by roaring and slamming your head into your foes. There's also Jonathon Bear, Jimmy's favorite toy, who briefly becomes a party member until he's revealed to be a servant of the Pulsating Mass. | |

Increasingly Lethal Enemy: The Wubbly gets stronger and faster for every turn that passes in battle. It's not very threatening at first and you can defeat it in a few turns, but one secret room in the World's Library asks that you defeat one after letting it last eight turns. That amount of time is usually enough for a Wubbly to one-shot anyone who isn't guarding. | |

Taken even further in the land of Everchip, a kingdom modeled after old-school medieval fantasy video games. The people, land, and music in that world take on a much more 8-bit quality. | |

Even if you have to, there's Experience Booster equipment to help them. | |

Big Bad | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_970c790a | comment |
Big Bad: The titular Pulsating Mass is the entity that seeks to corrupt and destroy Jimmy's dream world out of hatred for Jimmy, and is the employer of the Petty Thugs as well as implied to be responsible for creating or corrupting the Nightmare Zone bosses. Though its nature is never fully revealed, it is indicated to be a representation of the real-world Jimmy's cancer. | |

Foreshadowing | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: In The Wilted Lands, when trying to take the Low-Level Goon exam, the narration remarks upon how Jimmy can't read the test because it's all scrambled. Because of this, he just scribbles in the answer bubbles to look like a ninja. It seems like a gag about how stupid the Low-Level Goons are. This is actually an early hint to his dyslexia, something that becomes much more obvious in Shinryu. The scarecrows in Giant Garden can be shaken to hear grim prophecies referencing the side bosses that appear in Homeflower. The Information Guy is frequently seen eating bananas when he isn't talking to you. An optional area reveals that Information Guy is actually a species of short-tailed monkeys. In the boss battle against Mutt, its howling attack has a side effect of making Jimmy afraid. Later, in the Abandoned Cineplex, it's revealed that Buck narrowly saved Jimmy from being mauled by a dog. When Jimmy defeats the Rotting Jack O’Lantern, he has an Imagine Spot about dying and his whole family mourning his death- obviously him imagining what is going to happen when he finally succumbs to his cancer. Several bosses in the game have some time limit aspect to them. Imaginary Numbers will start using its powerful move if enough turns pass and you're unlucky enough not to have it glitch out. Grimclaw will slam into the ground for a party wipe if you can't kill the Brain Worms infecting it fast enough. The Doomsday Clock will do exactly what it says if you can't beat the Black Prophet fast enough. This obviously symbolizes Jimmy's days being numbered due to his cancer. One of Punch Tanaka's documents he left during his introspection trip states that he's unsure about his goals and skills and that he should try some occupations, like being a janitor, to discover what he's good at. Sure enough, when Jimmy goes to Shinryu, Punch has infiltrated Shinryu Academy in the guise of a janitor (he's not really good at it, though). The branches of the Central Hub are themed after memories and sensations. One room which is eye-themed has a telescope that you can interact with. Looking through it gives you a dim view of a hospital room, from the bed's point of view — a brief glimpse into Jimmy's reality. | |

Tragic Abandoned Toy | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_9e4da7ed | comment |
Tragic Abandoned Toy: Turnbuckle, the Optional Boss of Turnbuckle's Mansion, is the leader of the Whispering Valley's toy army. He used to be a toy Jimmy used to play with, but was left forgotten and was on his way to be destroyed to make way for new toys and memories about them. To avert his and his fellow forgotten toys' fates, he built a mansion to serve as a sanctuary for his kind, and built an army to claim revenge on Jimmy for his abandonment. In the end, as he perishes, he spends his last words expressing gratitude that Jimmy visited his mansion and was willing to play with him one last time, accepting his impending death. Jonathon Bear was Jimmy's favorite teddy bear toy who was locked away by the boy out of guilt over the fact that the boy shoplifted him. As he was revealed to be vengeful over his abandonment, serving as the Grim Echoes' Arc Villain, Jonathonland shows the situation from his perspective, depicting him in a much more sympathetic light: he used to be an obsolete and outdated model of Jonathon Bear plush toy line, but Jimmy liked him more than the newer models. However, he was too expensive, so his mother refused to buy him. As a result, Jimmy decided to shoplift him, lying that Jonathon was his grandmother's gift as an excuse. They used to play together all the time, but the guilt over shoplifting the teddy bear eventually led to Jimmy hiding and locking him away in the closet, and as the story ends, the camera pans on Jonathon Bear's torn-up and ruined body, with Helga expressing sympathy for Jonathon in spite of his past deeds. | |

Video Game Stealing | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_9fc2cb1b | comment |
Video Game Stealing: The Grift command of the Low-Level Goon form, which allows theft of things that aren't dropped, like a Stuffed Skitter from Skitters. Tanaka's got a Shakedown skill that lets him steal things while also dealing physical damage, and there's a Manual for "Master Criminal" that gives a once-per-battle high-rate steal skill. Non-inventory items can also be stolen: Weird Bones from Skitterbones, which, if stolen, automatically defeat the Skitterbones. A Mack from a Turtle Stack, which, as it is a stack of a Mack and a Mortimer, sends the stack toppling and splits the stack into temporarily stunned versions of its component monsters. An Edge from the Triangle, Square, Pentagon, and Hexagon enemies, which turns the enemy into the one with one less side- or, if you steal it from the Triangle, makes it cease to exist because there is no shape with two edges. It even works on some bosses. In the first battle against Johnny Knives, stealing his Knives turns him into the depressed Zero-Effort Boss Johnny No-Knives. Meanwhile, the Black Prophet and GAMM-E Optional Boss battles allow you to steal objects to give yourself more time and damage the boss, respectively. The Golden King, in his first fight, has four treasures that, when stolen, will lower his defense and give you a bigger reward, but make him stronger, while the rematch requires you to steal those treasures to be able to damage him at all. | |

Mood Whiplash | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_a4c37cbe | comment |
Mood Whiplash: The game regularly indulges in this, switching periodically from long stretches of standard JRPG affair and whimsical, EarthBound-esque worlds, to suddenly thrusting you into nightmarish settings rife with Body Horror, blood and gore, and dozens of other common horror tropes. The switch from these dread-filled sequences back to the comparatively happy-go-lucky mood of the normal areas is often just as sudden. For a few notable examples: After defeating the Petty Thugs at their HQ for the first time, Jimmy can then go and get the honey from the Beehive, or enter a Bonus Dungeon. Either way, what was previously a lighthearted, kid-friendly adventure abruptly turns horrifying- the bonus dungeon is a dark, claustrophobic cave with creepy music and a scary snake boss, while the Beehive is now corrupted and the inhabitants have been turned into zombies with rotting flesh. On the other side, the horror-themed third world, Grim Echoes, ends with one of the most disturbing areas of the game, Jonathon Bear's Playtime Forest. But once the boss is beaten and a cutscene plays, Jimmy is immediately transported to Kingland, a Retraux parody of classic JRPGs. | |

Infinity +1 Sword | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_a5e02e9e | comment |
Infinity +1 Sword: The Dark Dungeon has a lot of good equipment if you get lucky with item spaces. Of note is that there's a lot of trinkets that alter the behaviour of your party member's skills, often augmenting them at the cost of applying a cooldown. You can also purchase weapons and armor with the highest raw stats for a lot of Dungeon Points. The Phoenix transformation is Jimmy's strongest transformation, but you'll have to hunt down all twenty-five lightbulbs across the world. It comes with no stat penalties, boosts three stats per level, and comes with some of the strongest healing and revival spells. The Kingland Arena offers the Galaxy Badge, which has the combined effects of the Earth, Moon and Sun Badges — it gives a massive stat boost, regenerating HP and MP, immunity to several status ailments, and teaches eight moves at once, but cannot be used on Jimmy. Each wing of the Heart Prison offers the strongest weapon for the associated party member that has no drawback or side effect. | |

Blade Enthusiast: Johnny Knives, who uses knives, as his name suggests. Amusingly, his knives can be stolen, turning him into the depressed and ineffectual "Johnny No-Knives". | |

Brutal Bonus Level | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_be3e7584 | comment |
Brutal Bonus Level: The game is stuffed with bonus dungeons already, but the standard "post-game bonus dungeon" found in most RPGs does exist. The Heart Prison awaits you after you complete the game, and it is tough, split up into 8 segments that each require you to bring along a certain party member. Each is filled with strategically crafted encounters consisting of powered-up versions of various monsters from the game designed to be as annoying as possible, powered-up versions of previous optional bosses, and a final encounter against a hateful version of Jimmy's family which is one of the hardest battles in the game. For reference, you can clear most of the main plot and side dungeons at level 65-70, while the end boss of the Heart Prison asks you to be level 90+. | |

By the Lights of Their Eyes: Multiple: In the cave underneath Giant Garden, monsters are obscured on the first turn of battle — except for their eyes. The spiders in the lower part can make characters Afraid when they emerge. This is a theme with the enemies in the Unbreakable Bridge's side dungeon. The enemies and boss of this area are almost completely black against a black background. | |

Shout-Out | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Multiple: Mr. Darcy from Pride and Prejudice appears an enemy in the 'Classics' section of The World's Library. Don't steal his tea. Enemies in the Secret Meridian include the Onefish and Twofish. The Great Triangle introduces more advanced versions of these enemies — Redfish and Bluefish. The Bookworm's Knowledge for the enemy Thirteen states that it came from a universe ruled by The God of Crawling Eyes. The moment you directly fight The Pulsating Mass has it take the form of a giant, fleshy labyrinth, with a spherical core that possesses the ability to mimic whoever it chooses. In other words, Giygas' Devil's Machine. An enemy is a mud golem with a flower on its head, which is identical to Bud the golem from Housekeeping's previous game The Heart Pumps Clay. During his travels Jimmy finds a magical talking fish that promises him it'll grant a wish if they can save it from a fish processing plant, like what happens in that episode of The Simpsons where they travel to Japan (said area in the game is Japanese-inspired as well). Unlike the Simpsons, however, Jimmy can actually save it and unlock a side area. The "Tetsuya Kawaii" brand is a clear reference to Sanrio, with its mascots Robo-chan and Gero being ersatzes of Hello Kitty and Keroppi. A giant red dragoness falling in love with someone of a different species (Lars) reminds of Shrek. | |

Five Stages of Grief: The family members go through the five stages individually as they cope with Jimmy's terminal illness in the real world. Lars tries to hold out hope Jimmy will get better (Denial), Buck channels his grief into rage and takes it out on others (Anger), Andrew tries desperately to search for a cure (Bargaining), Helga grieves deeply over Jimmy (Depression) and Jimmy, aware of what little time he has left, allows himself to pass on in the ending (Acceptance). | |

And Your Reward Is Furniture: You can collect a variety of furniture to decorate Jimmy's Clubhouse. Each piece provides a small stat boost, and completing a set gives a special bonus. The furniture comes in 'Common' (bought at stores), 'Monster' (stolen from monsters), and 'Rare' (often found in side dungeons and hidden toy boxes) varieties along with a 'Special' category for furniture with no set. | |

Pre-Final Boss | |

Pre-Final Boss: Just before fighting the titular antagonist, you are pitted against Possessed Buck, who is absolutely brutal, combining the major strengths of most major bosses fought previously in order to pulp you into paste with hard-hitting attacks while he takes off into the air to ignore your melee strikes. The Pulsating Mass itself isn't much of a challenge by comparison, even though you go up against it with only two party members. | |

Everybody Hates Mathematics: The Secret Meridian is populated by sentient numbers and its random encounters are Living Polyhedrons or Anthropomorphic Typography. The Asymmetrical Cavern takes this further, as it's filled with abstract shapes while its BGM bombards you with random numbers without any sense of rhythm. Given that Jimmy's father is his very eager math tutor, it's implied that the Cavern is derived from Jimmy's aversion to complex math that's beyond his understanding. | |

Eddy, a muscular cloud man Cumulus, a beefy cloud man who can counter your attacks. Wendy, a slap-happy cloud girl who can hit the entire party. Nimbus, electricity wielding cloud creatures Cloud Babies, which appear in Giant Garden. This conjoined cloud creature splits into two other cloud creatures if not killed by the end of the turn, or if their Cloud Thread is stolen. Bad Weather, which generally appears in the caverns below Giant Garden, are cloud creatures that look like The Grim Reaper, with a scythe and cloak. Cloud Princes, who appear in The Ultimate Construction and are masterful swordsmen. | |

Subverted Kids' Show: Johnathon Bear’s Playtime Forest starts off as the sweet and innocent looking set of the titular show, with cutesy and mostly harmless enemies based on the show’s supporting cast. It slowly goes from that to a nightmare covered in blood, organs, and buzzsaws with the enemies become deformed, mutilated, and far more dangerous in battle. It ends off with a battle against Jonathon himself, now a giant and deformed monster who attacks the party so he can have Jimmy all to himself. It’s implied that the dungeon symbolizes both Jimmy’s guilt at shoplifting a Jonathon doll and having your childhood innocence corrupted. | |

Job System: Jimmy can use his powers of empathy to take the form of strong enemies he defeats throughout the game. As he levels them up, they increase his overall stats. He is also able to equip each form's various abilities and special passive abilities as they level up so that he can use them in his normal form, or in any form. Deconstructed, as this is Jimmy's way of escaping from his poor self-image in the real world. | |

Turnbuckle, the Optional Boss of Turnbuckle's Mansion, is the leader of the Whispering Valley's toy army. He used to be a toy Jimmy used to play with, but was left forgotten and was on his way to be destroyed to make way for new toys and memories about them. To avert his and his fellow forgotten toys' fates, he built a mansion to serve as a sanctuary for his kind, and built an army to claim revenge on Jimmy for his abandonment. In the end, as he perishes, he spends his last words expressing gratitude that Jimmy visited his mansion and was willing to play with him one last time, accepting his impending death. | |

All Just a Dream: The Steam page is upfront that the game is all a dream of Jimmy's. The nature of the dream however is a huge spoiler. | |

My Brain Is Big | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_ea9f0351 | comment |
My Brain Is Big: The Pulsating Mass shows up in the retraux 8-bit area of Kingland as "Chancellor Pulsating Mass", manipulating the King with the mental powers coming from its oversized exposed brain. You also fight him as a boss, and luckily its portrait is still a low-res sprite. | |

Funny Animal | |

Funny Animal: Most, if not all of the animal characters act pretty much exactly like humans, including having their own communities in Smile and the Giant Garden. | |

Blob Monster | |

Blob Monster: There are a few, with the most notable being the first monster you encounter, the Revolting Blob, which Jimmy can transform into after defeating it. | |

Innocent Innuendo | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_f288cf3 | comment |
Innocent Innuendo: After the opening, Jimmy's parents say they're going to have "adult fun time" and lock themselves in their room. By using the Revolting Blob or Happy Little Sunflower on the second-floor shower drain, you can fall into their room and discover they're just hula-hooping. | |

Dark Reprise: "A Closing Window" is a hollow version of "An Open Window", looping the latter's few notes endlessly over a low drone. | |

Stone Wall: The Revolting Blob, which takes a penalty to magic attack but specializes in defense. It can also provoke enemies to draw attacks. Lars also has a similar focus in his stats and skill set, and mainly deals damage through Counter Attacks. | |

Mailbox Baseball | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_f6d9bc9f | comment |
Mailbox Baseball: Referenced for the empathy text of the Low-Level Goon, when Jimmy imagines himself in the role of one. Among the many activities, he imagines driving down the neighborhood street with his fellow goons, smashing mailboxes with a baseball bat. | |

Disguised Horror Story | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_f6f24e4b | comment |
Disguised Horror Story: At first, the game seems like a typical light-hearted adventure through a dream-esque landscape. Then you return to the Buddy Beehive and find it's suddenly turned into a nightmarish labyrinth of undead mutated bees, and it doesn't get any better from there — with the climax revealing that Jimmy will eventually succumb to cancer. Another example is the beach of Bonita Vista, full of vacationers and hot babes, but half of it has been abandoned, and you see piles of trash everywhere... cue rotting beached whale carcass (the area's BGM is even named "Dead Whale"). | |

Running Gag | |
Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass (Video Game) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Multiple: Information Guy being the Butt-Monkey, which often involves him getting killed horribly, like by Buck, or being impaled on a stalagmite. In the Wilted Lands, every member of the Petty Thugs seems to have a different idea of what "the first rule of gooning" is. The secretary says that it's "getting here in the nick of time", the instructor says it's "brush your teeth after every meal.", the Information Guy video for the GECE is... never said, and then the instructor changes his to just following orders, the Prospective Goon says it's "work together with your friends so you can achieve your dreams". | |

Have a Gay Old Time: One of the bosses fought in the arena is the High-Level Goon, who claims he has "Acheived the peak of gooning." The word "gooning" started to also mean a specific method of masturbation during the early 2020s. | |
