20XX (Video Game) | comment |
20XX is an Indie Platformer/Roguelike hybrid that takes heavy inspiration from the Mega Man X series.Just like the X series, the goal is to make your way through each stage, discovering new powerups and abilities along the way, to fight the boss at the end. However, where X has deliberately designed stages, 20XX uses a random level generator to create a unique layout filled with new items each time you play.The plot, such as it is, is that two Android mercenaries, Nina and Ace, have been contracted by professors Brighton Sharp and Arlan Flat to quell a robot uprising. The duo must run, dash, shoot and slash their way through 10 different levels and defeat the hordes of renegade robots, destroy their leaders, find out who is truly responsible for the attacks and, hopefully, survive long enough to get paid.Bosses: Perforator Alpha, weak to the Shadespur, gives you the Vera. Eternal Star, weak to the Force Nova, gives you the Shadespur. Vile Visage, weak to the Mortar, gives you the Force Nova. Death Lotus, weak to the Boomerang Blade, gives you the Mortar. Rollster Beta, weak to the Flameshield, gives you the Boomerang Blade. Twin Astrals, weak to the Splinterfrost, give you the Flameshield. Shatterbeak, weak to the Quint Laser, gives you the Splinterfrost. Kur, weak to the Vera, gives you the Quint Laser.20XX exited Early Access on August 16th, 2017 for PC. It was later ported to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch on July 2018.The game has seen some post-launch support. Among the free updates, some paid add-ons were released— The first DLC character, Hawk, was released on February 12, 2018. The second DLC character, Draco, was released on July 10, 2018.On February 13, 2020, Batterystaple announced 30XX, a Distant Sequel set 1000 years later, with a release date of "30XX" (really 2021). | |

Video-Game Flamethrowers Suck | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_10c393f5 | comment |
Video Game Flamethrowers Suck: While the damage on Hawk's flamethrower isn't bad, the range isn't all that impressive, and it chugs down energy like a college student preparing for their third all-nighter in a row. Averted with the fire flask, however, which is brutally effective against ground targets and can be used to send damage down vertical shafts by lobbing it just short of the entrance. | |

Antepiece: A result of the level generator. When generating a level, the game will pick from certain stage-specific templates, and add things depending on the difficulty. For example, you might find two moving platform tracks in parallel when in a Skytemple level. The same two tracks may reappear in a later Skytemple level, but might have laser beams added onto it. | |

20XX (Video Game) / int_15df66d9 | comment |
After Boss Recovery: Downplayed, you might get a few health pickups, but rarely a full health recovery (from the Blue Lander). If you have certain skull modifiers enabled then you have the possibility of having no recovery at all. Played Straight with Kingseeker, a Prototype Aug that fully heals you after defeating a boss, at the expense of no health dropping from enemies. | |

Power at a Price | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_1ebbdddb | comment |
Power at a Price: Prototype Augments, found in Very Safe Laboratories. They give a very strong upside, at the cost of a sharp, mostly permanent downside. Examples include the Earthmetal Plating, which massively improves your life and energy at the cost of setting your attack power back to the default level, or the Zookeeper's Burden, which instantly gives you one copy of every Repro, but completely removes your ability to fire your weapon or use powers at all. Besides that, there are plenty of regular augments that also feature tradeoffs, such as the Glass Cannon that grants attack power but reduces health and the Utilifier that grants energy but reduces power damage. | |

Utility Weapon | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_21e1a8e3 | comment |
Utility Weapon: Every boss power has some additional utility use besides just doing damage; Shadespur - Locks the holographic platforms in Vaculab permanently. It's also the only weapon capable of firing through walls, unless you acquire a certain Aug. Splinterfrost - Disables the Flamespewer traps primarily featured in Agnisort. Mortar - Negates the shields of enemies that use them. It'll also home in on the Hive Bomb obstacles from Frostor, killing them instantly. Force Nova - In addition to blocking most enemy shots, it also permanently disables the Boltpairs present in Skytemple. Boomerang Blade - Can be used to grab most items from a distance. Flameshield - Normally, fireballs block a single bullet before being destroyed. They'll protect against shots from Ice Architects indefinitely, however. Quint Laser - Fully charged lasers will topple Vending Machines, granting some free pickups. Vera - Can be fired downwards while in the air to propel yourself upwards. Blast Jump - Unique to Hawk. It gives her an additional jump, damaging enemies around her as she does so, and stacks with leg core augments. | |

Mythology Gag | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Early builds of 20XX had a spider robot boss◊ that was eventually cut and replaced by Vile Visage. Dr. Arlan Flat's spider mecha bears a very strong resemblance to it. Vile Visage's datalore entry notes that the previous guardian prior to Visage fled and Visage was built in its place. They're obviously talking about the spider boss again here. Some of the Augs allude to their introduction to their first appearance in a build, like how the Meganut could initially be purchased in shops or that the Spillover Matrix used to also convert energy to health before being nerfed. The startup artwork◊ shows an early design of Nina. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: The prototype augments often give you massive bonuses, but not without an equally heavy penalty, and you can get more than one. Some of the characters can work around the handicaps, but woe is the unaware soul who picks the wrong prototype at the wrong time. To give some examples. Hawk's World Igniter has bar none the highest DPS of the entire game. The catch? It is extremely energy-consuming, and even with Owlhawk's Focus (which reduces special ammo consumption by 50%), it will eat through your energy gauge before you can finish saying Twenty-Double-X. | |

Set Bonus | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_2e62fdc2 | comment |
Set Bonus: There are four armor sets in the game, each with four pieces — head, arms, torso, and legs. Armatort's set bonus grants invulnerability to stage hazards. Oxjack's set bonus allows for three mid-air dashes. Dracopent's set bonus causes all attacks to be charged attacks. Owlhawk's set bonus amplifies Powers, giving them special abilities. The Patchwork Connector lets you grab the bonus with only three pieces, leading to some weird and potentially very strong arrangements — given a perfect starting seed, for example, one could have Dracopent's legs, helmet and torso, allowing all shots to be charged, but Armatort's weapon, allowing you to fire an unlimited number of charge shots that cut through enemy projectiles. Taken even further with Patchwork Integrator, a prototype augment, which allows you to receive the bonus of armors with mere two pieces. The catch? A hefty 40% penalty on your attack and power damage. | |

Glass Cannon | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_2f253c94 | comment |
Glass Cannon: The aptly-named Glass Cannon augment. It improves damage while reducing maximum HP. The Violence Enhancer augment greatly increases the damage you deal, but doubles the damage you take, while Consuming Fury essentially gives you a Glass Cannon augment at the beginning of every level. The Hysteria augment triples damage taken, but doubles the effect of any non-prototype augs you pick up. | |

Asteroids Monster: If he's not fought as the first boss, once killed for the first time, Rollster Beta will cause him to divide into two, smaller Rollsters with less health, and can divide a second time if fought late enough. The miniature hamster wheels based off of him also share this property, though they divide into only one of their weaker versions. | |

Hammerspace: While this is mostly averted since all weapons are made of energy or something similar, Ace's glaive and spear have a handle that's way too big to fit in his arm "cannon". | |

Close-Range Combatant | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_392ccbc9 | comment |
Close-Range Combatant: Ace only has so much range on his default A-Saber, but has greater attack power than Nina. The Sharp Sharp Spear weapon can be used to alleviate his issues with horizontal range, however. Hawk's Siphon also has a short range, but she lacks the attack power of Ace. To compensate, her Siphon can drain energy to fuel her sub weapons. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: N-Buster for Nina and A-Saber for Ace are not the most exciting weapons of the game, but are generally well-suited for most situations. Likewise Hawk's whip, the Siphon, is not terrible to the point of being considered an Emergency Weapon, but is by far and away her most "boring" weapon. Focusing purely on damage for the main weapons over using boss powers. As said, the N-Buster and A-Saber are incredibly versatile and don't require any energy to use, while boss powers can be more situational, and since the game is designed to expect that you won't be picking any boss power, there are no parts that outright require them. Even with a few attack power ups, Nina and Ace's main weapons will end up doing even more damage than most powers and has the added benefit of turning energy into a Dump Stat, thus negating the drawback of stat boosts that are supposed to be balanced by taking away energy. | |

Yet Another Stupid Death | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_39c10f1d | comment |
Yet Another Stupid Death: It's not unusual for players to bite more they can chew and try to fight more enemies they can handle and get mauled to death. If the Rock challenge skull is active, sometimes the player can forget most stage hazards are now are insta-death and end up getting themselves killed too. It's possible to kill yourself by picking augments that decrease your maximum health (Glass Cannon, Leafmetal Plating…) if you don't have any armor points on you. | |

Guys Smash, Girls Shoot: Ace is a close-quarters combatant while Nina makes use of long ranged weapons. The same goes for Hawk and Draco: while Hawk usually has to get close to use her Siphon to recharge her special weapons, she has no real strong melee attack; Draco, on the other hand, has access to ranged weapons, but, like Ace, his most devastating attacks are usually the melee ones. | |

Flunky Boss: While Eternal Star is no slouch himself, the countless swarms of Flapps he summons throughout the fight will make it pretty difficult to get any damage against him unless you have something that can hit 'em all at once. Vile Visage will periodically retreat behind a nearly-impenetrable shield while he summons random mooks to harass you. Death Lotus summons a bomb-spitting flower whenever he digs into the wall. They're rather flimsy, but it's easy to let them pile up and cause the screen to be showered with blue missiles. Dr. Arlan Flat summons clones of Nina and Ace to fight you in the intermissions of the fight. They're fragile, but some of their attacks do double damage if they hit you. | |

Charged Attack | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_589e54d3 | comment |
Charged Attack: All characters have some form of charge attack to increase their damage or, in Draco's case, perform an utility move. The Rippling Axe (becomes a "charged" attack if used airborne) and Plasma Blender (gets stronger the more damage it causes) cannot be charged normally. The Dracopent set revolves around charged attacks — the head will store two charged attacks at once, the arms will allow for a third-level charge, and the Set Bonus causes all attacks to come out as a second-level charge, though they can still be charged for the third one. The Quint Laser can be charged, making the shot larger, stronger, and faster, though it'll also consume more energy. | |

Fragile Speedster: The Leafmetal Plating augment, reducing damage in favor of run speed. Oxjack's Core Augments provide little in the way of protection beyond a shield that's only active while dashing with the torso upgrade. For contrast, both Owlhawk and Dracopent let you regenerate health by killing enemies with the appropriate methods, and Armatort boosts health pickups by making some of them also grant you armour. However, Oxjack's augs let you use it in midair — multiple times, if you have the Set Bonus — and allow you to quickly and efficiently charge your weapon. | |

Disc-One Nuke: Finding the Dracopent's Claw (which allows an even more powerful charge) and Dracopent's Fang (next attack also becomes charged) early in the game is rare, but if you happen to bump into any of these (or both), early bosses can be slaughtered in seconds even without Attack augments, especially when combined with weapons like the Scatterblast with strong charge scaling. Finding an Owlhawk's Focus (green helmet, reduces energy consumption by half) for Hawk early on will soften one of her biggest handicaps and allow her to spam special weapons with even more freedom. | |

Dump Stat | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_5d1eb74d | comment |
Focusing purely on damage for the main weapons over using boss powers. As said, the N-Buster and A-Saber are incredibly versatile and don't require any energy to use, while boss powers can be more situational, and since the game is designed to expect that you won't be picking any boss power, there are no parts that outright require them. Even with a few attack power ups, Nina and Ace's main weapons will end up doing even more damage than most powers and has the added benefit of turning energy into a Dump Stat, thus negating the drawback of stat boosts that are supposed to be balanced by taking away energy. | |

Inexplicable Treasure Chests: They always contain goodies.

Private Military Contractors: The Contractors are heavily implied to be one: the opening cutscene has Dr. Sharp calling them for help with the robot uprising, the HQ has a contract from Dr. Flat on the corkboard, and a run of the game is called a Job. The in-universe lingo for the types of robots Nina and Ace are is a Contractor. Subverted. Nina and Ace aren't actually hired guns; they're just programmed to think they are, so they have a motivation to go on the missions. | |

20XX (Video Game) / int_7d0b5cb5 | comment |
Platform Hell: Level 9 is a Marathon Level with some of the most difficult platforming challenges in the game. It combines all of the previous stages' platforming elements with impunity, spices it up with Boltpairs, Ice Architects, and Flamespewers en masse, and populates them all with numerous enemies ready to block your progress and knock you into pits. On top of that, probably a good 80% of the level is made up of said platforming elements, which means that when you do fall into a bottomless pit, the spot you get ported back to — that is, the last bit of solid, safe ground you touched — is likely to be a considerable distance back. | |

Linear Warriors, Quadratic Wizards: Owlhawk's armor set. The legs core is the only one that is usable by itself, with all the other cores relying on heavy use of Powers to be effective. However, get all of the cores, and not only do they have amazing synergy with each other, but they also provide the best Set Bonus in the game. The question is, are you going to find all the cores in one run? Hawk starts out with a weak weapon and a similarly weak power, but her mixture of power pick-ups and an almost limitless supply of energy makes her extremely potent. | |

Puzzle Boss: A downplayed example. You can, of course, wail on every boss the old-fashioned way, but certain bosses aren't directly weak to the power they're supposed to be, so you have to figure out the trick that exploits the boss's real weakness. Use Vera to reflect Kur's quint lasers back at him, and Eternal Star's minions cause a chain-reaction explosion when killed with Force Nova. | |

20XX (Video Game) / int_8f1ec2c5 | comment |
Joke Character: Vika and Jest. Prototypes, but functional, versions of Nina and Ace unlocked by finishing the game on Defiant with at least 3 skulls. They have half of the normal starting health, only 2 weapon energy, their weapons deal halved damage, and items on shop have their cost doubled. Oh, and they cannot find new basic weapons nor Cores. The only, erm, positive trait about them is that prototype augments will have their positive benefits doubled; they can potentially become Lethal Joke Characters because of that. | |

Sharp and Flat will instead reward them with a well-deserved "vacation" (flung out into space).

Mighty Glacier: The Mass Concentrator (later renamed the Forcemetal Shell) increases Max HP and attack strength, but reduces runspeed. Ace's Rippling Axe does enormous damage (at the start of a run, the Axe has the same damage on a standard attack that Nina gets on a charged shot), but only has a two-hit combo, attacks slowly, and has that weird charge-attack mechanic. | |

20XX (Video Game) / int_963086ce | comment |
Damn You, Muscle Memory!: Every foot core augs have different commands — double jump, double jump to hover or fly, or a multi-directional air dash. The Rippling Axe will significantly change your attack patterns by turning any midair push of the attack button into a brutal vertical strike, which can lead to the same sort of problem if you're used to weapons that don't immediately remove your horizontal momentum when used. Playing with Draco feels very awkward at the start because you must press Up + Attack in order to use his charge attacks. Considering some of his attacks can propel him upwards or forward, it's very easy to mess up an input and throw yourself in harm's way. | |

Luck-Based Mission | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_98b1dc8f | comment |
Luck-Based Mission: Most of the game is randomly generated, so much of the game's difficulty from one stage or run to the next depends as much on the whims of the Random Number God as it does the player's own skills and choices. The items you get in a run are random, either as loot drops or as items found in shops and Very Safe Labs. This can make unlocking Set Bonuses a crapshoot, since you're not at all guaranteed to find all of the Core Augments in a set. The Patchwork Connector aug and Patchwork Integrator Prototype Augment can help with this, but they are also found at random, and the latter carries a penalty to your damage output. | |

Difficult, but Awesome | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_9b9397bb | comment |
Difficult, but Awesome: Weapons like the Scatterblast and Plasma Blender tend to be very risky due to their short range, but they can absolutely tear apart anything short of the toughest bosses of the game in seconds if used right. Most of the prototype augs from Very Safe Labs have potent bonuses but crippling drawbacks. Sanity Converter massively increases power damage but puts a rather harsh limit on how often you can use them (each use, unless it's free because of Owlhawk's helmet or whatever, consumes max energy), Violence Enhancer gives you a powerful damage buff at the cost of taking double damage, Defiant Decree makes bosses tougher in exchange for more loot, Consuming Fury gives you a Glass Cannon effect at the start of every level, Hysteria doubles pickup effects but triples damage you take, and so on. If you can work around the drawbacks, though, you can tear through your enemies. Oxjack's stuff has poor defences and requires lightning-fast platforming reflexes to use effectively, particularly the Set Bonus. On the other hand, the amount of chaos you can cause with a super-mobile character in a platform game is quite high. Hawk in general. She starts out as the weakest of the four characters. Her strengths lie in her near limitless supply of energy to fuel special weapons. | |

An Adventurer Is You: The Core Augments — armor parts — can, and might, change your playstyle wildly depending which one you go for: The Tank: Armatort, the Unstoppable. Gives several defensive abilities that allows the Contractors to have much better odds of surviving. The DPS: Dracopent, the Foul. Focuses primarily on normal attacks which allows the players to deal more damage without special effects. The DPS 2: Owlhawk, the Wise. The set focuses on special weapons and having all of them allows any character to cause a lot of damage while having tools for any situation. However, this style is limited by the amount of weapon energy the character has. The Jack-of-All-Trades: Oxjack, the Flash. The set focuses on mobility and synergizes somewhat well with any playstyle, but doesn't really excel anywhere. | |

Short-Range Shotgun: The Scatterblast for Nina. The multiple projectiles make it strong up close, but weaker at longer ranges, and they dissipate faster — although charged shots have longer range, and a double-charged one will fire more projectiles as well. Nina with the arm core enhancer and a full Dracopent set is basically instant death to anything within about twenty feet of her except for bosses, and even those don't have much fun. | |

20XX (Video Game) / int_c04f297d | comment |
Path of Most Resistance: If an alternate path is generated by the level, you can bet you'll have extra platforms, enemies, and spikes waiting before you reach that crate or chest. Downplayed with Shops (or Very Safe Laboratories), as while they can have obstacles in the way, they'll always be much tamer than ones leading to extra loot. | |

Final-Exam Boss | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_c3e4b9fd | comment |
Final-Exam Boss Dr. Brighton Sharp, who wears a battlesuit equipped with all of the previous bosses' special weapons, though some of them work a bit differently than yours. Dr. Arlan Flat as well, to a lesser extent. He doesn't attack you directly until you've dealt some damage to him, but when he does, he uses the bosses' weapons. You also have to go through some of the hazards of the previous stages just to get to a position to hit him. | |

Shout-Out | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Quite a few to the Mega Man franchise, being a Spiritual Successor to it in particular. Nina's blue and yellow color scheme is similar to the infamous Bad Box Art Mega Man. Nina's default weapon is called the N-Buster, and Ace's is called the A-Saber, both of which are clear references to X's default X-Buster and Zero's Z-Saber. Dr. Brighton Sharp and Dr. Arlan Flat take some design cues from Dr. Light and Dr. Wily from the Classic Mega Man series. Sharp for his rotundness in comparison to his partner, and Flat for his weird hair spikes. They're also named after musical terms, like most of the main characters from the Classic Mega Man series. The Splinterfrost functions like a combination of the Freeze Cracker from Mega Man 7 and the Shotgun Ice from Mega Man X. With the former, the icon for the Splinterfrost◊ resembles the official art for the Freeze cracker, and for the latter, you obtain it from a penguin themed boss who doesn't really use the weapon himself. The intro cutscene features the camera starting near the base of a tall building, then panning up to reveal the blue-clad protagonist staring into the distance. Several of the portraits for the Prototype Augments feature silhouettes that look remarkably like the original Mega Man. The Challenge Skull that alters stage hazards (lasers, spikes, pits, etc.) to cause instant death is Rock. The flavor text for it says to "Remember your ancestors." The game ends with a space station blowing up, and the final cutscene has a shot of Nina's helmet left in the sand. It's a giant reference to Mega Man Zero 4's ending, though it does subvert the original Bolivian Army Ending by panning the camera right to reveal that Nina just left her helmet and that both her and Ace are perfectly fine. Nina's Wave Beam upgrade shares its name and appearance with the Wave Beam from the Metroid series. The art for the Vera looks exactly like Heavy's default minigun. The name is also a reference to the trope I Call It "Vera", which Heavy invokes with every single one of his miniguns. The Ninja Sash's artwork features a headband with an insignia-inscribed metal plate bolted to the front. Sound familliar? It makes you run faster and its description says "Gotta go fast". There's a Powerup Magnet aug shaped like Magneto's helmet. At the end of runs, there will be a brief comment on your run quoted from a supposed department. One such comment is "It's bad and it should feel bad!", and is listed as being said by "WOOP WOOP WOOP". Another possible end-of-run message is "But… the future refused to change." The Plumber Hat, which increase jump height, spent a while as a bright red cap that's almost identical to Mario's, before being replaced by a picture of a top hat on a spring. There were also the Contractor Aplha, Beta, and Omega augs which boost all stats, that resembled Mushrooms, complete with the face painted on the stalk. They too were changed, replaced by colored paper resembling blueprints. The Heart Container works almost exactly as it does in The Legend Of Zelda series, minus the full health restore. The description for the Striking Feather also references chickens that attack in swarms when provoked. The Vibroreserve is a potato battery that looks exactly like GLaDOS in her potato body from Portal 2. The Quint Laser is based off of (and looks and behaves like) the Quad Laser used by the Mooninites in Aqua Teen Hunger Force. There's a Challenge Skull named "Final Destination". The menu icon is a silhouette of Fox's head with a mockup of Melee's Final Destination inside it. The flavor text for the skull is "No items. Fox only," and ultimately references the other widespread use of the term 20XX. The Datalore entry for the Twin Astrals gives them the nickname "The Touhou Twins", a reference to the Touhou Project series of games, infamous for the sort of Bullet Hell the Twin Astrals subject you to. Hawk's Wildfire sub weapon resembles the Holy Water from Castlevania in function. The description includes the line "Secrets: yes, miserable." The Splintering Twinifier is named after the Magic: The Gathering card Splinter Twin, which became notable because when combined with Deceiver Exarch, it became a huge Game-Breaker. | |

Take Your Time: There's no actual pressure to hurry up or anything during the final escape sequence. There's no timer to speak of, and the wall of explosions behind you will never actually overtake you if you dawdle. In fact, it will actually retreat if you fall back for whatever reason. Just don't take too long. The explosion wall's hitbox will advance slowly, and deals double damage to you if you get caught in it. | |

Bonus Stage: Glory Zones may or may not be found at the midpoint of each level. Activities range from scaling platforming courses, to destroying many enemies as quickly as possible, to special obstacle courses meant to be cleared with the use of a particular Power, often with an additional stipulation like not being allowed to take damage. Though entirely optional, completing these challenges usually offers a Core part, necessary for some powerful Set Bonuses. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: After beating a boss, you can press a Power key to set the power to that key, instead of picking it up like a normal item and having to fiddle with your powers from the pause menu briefly. You can fire special weapons without consuming energy to give your newfound power a spin and understand how it works too. On version 0.984b onward, Vending machines are guaranteed to vend at least three times before having a chance to detonate. Previously, vending machines would often spawn with only one pickup available before detonating, leading to much disappointment. The first level will never spawn Energy pickups, since you won't have any Powers to use them with until the end of that level. After defeating a boss, any bottomless pits or lava pools will no longer damage the player if then fall in, preventing Kaizo Trap situations. Similarly, any traps in the boss room will disappear. Every attack deals a minimum 10 damage to chests and crates. Very helpful if you've picked up the Focusing Sagelens and deal a piddling 1 damage per basic attack. Item drops don't vanish with time, you can take your time to pick anything if a hazard or enemy is too close. A run can last very long, normally about half an hour. At the end of each level, you have the option to save your game and continue later. Soul Chips aren't affected by gravity like other normal item drops, preventing the player from losing them to a bottomless pit or falling in a very inconvenient place. Attacks from Repros won't trigger the nastier effects that some of the enemies have like the Maintcores' reflector shields. Shops have blue icons indicating whether they will appear only in the middle of the level or during the boss corridor (indicated by a skull). Upon using the small circular teleporters (commonly found in Frostor), you have a small period of invincibility. This prevents an enemy camping on it to get a cheap shot on the player and also prevents stage hazards from catching them off-guard as well. Playing on Reverent or Normal on co-op allows one player to teleport to another by holding the "pick up augment" button. This might be helpful to lead one player to a chest or to help someone cross a troublesome section of a level safely. However, this is disabled on Defiant difficulty. Falling platforms on co-op will take longer to start falling than in solo runs to prevent players from accidentally sabotaging each other. Death Lotus's boss fight, which revolves around him disappearing into the wall after making a few attacks and emerging from a randomised point, was tweaked so that a red marker would appear around the point he would emerge from. This allows Ace, who has no non-power ranged attacks, to close in on his location and start whuppin' rather than having to rush there in the hope of getting in a couple of swings before he bails. Some Disable Trap challenge rooms require you to shut down flame traps with the Splinterfrost. These rooms have been set up so that the Quantum Spook, which lets you shoot through walls, doesn't work, allowing you to actually complete them. | |

Have a Nice Death | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_d933263 | comment |
Have a Nice Death: If (or when) you fail a run, you usually get a last dismissive commentary from the game. Additionally, Nina and Ace have special cutscenes where they are blown to bits or flung into space at the end of failed runs. You still get some of this even when you win. Even in the rare cases it's not directly mocking you, it's definitely not positive toward you directly. | |

Clone Angst: The final boss fight reveals something that's been hinted at since beta: Nina and Ace have been destroyed and recreated over and over again by Dr. Sharp and Dr. Flat for testing. The final two levels see Nina and Ace turning against their creators to break the cycle of death and rebirth. | |

Exact Words: Very Safe Labs. Well, the lab itself is safe. It's just that the upgrade in it might be… troublesome. | |

Coin-on-a-String Trick | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_ee0d29b6 | comment |
Coin-on-a-String Trick: Or, rather, Nut-on-a-String, but the Nutsaving Stringwire still qualifies. 50% of all vending machine uses won't cost anything. Including the ones where Contractors donate health for nuts, somehow. | |

Wall Jump | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_eee721fd | comment |
Wall Jump: Works like it does in the Mega Man X series, though it's tweaked slightly — jumping off a wall no longer pushes you away and you don't stop for a moment when jumping onto a wall, so wall scaling becomes far more fluid. One pickup even lets you stick to a specific point as long as you're pressing against the wall. | |

Emergency Weapon | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_ef42ca88 | comment |
N-Buster for Nina and A-Saber for Ace are not the most exciting weapons of the game, but are generally well-suited for most situations. Likewise Hawk's whip, the Siphon, is not terrible to the point of being considered an Emergency Weapon, but is by far and away her most "boring" weapon. | |

Critical Status Buff | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_ef8ee709 | comment |
Critical Status Buff: Crisis Overdrive increases all status if Nina or Ace's health drop to red. Crisis Timestopper freezes all enemies for 3 seconds if they drop their health to red as well. Inverted with Contractor Beta, which makes you more powerful at full health, but get weaker the less health you have. | |

Dark Reprise | |
20XX (Video Game) / int_f3fd818b | comment |
Dark Reprise: Level 9's boss theme, "Apex", has bits of the main theme. When you enter a Very Safe Lab, the stage background music becomes distorted and creepy. | |

Platonic Life-Partners: Nina and Ace are pretty good friends, being next-door neighbors, doing their job together, and frequently fist bumping, but they aren't shown to ever progress past being friends. | |
