''Battle Kid: Fortress of Peril'' is a NES game by one-man operation Sivak Games. The gameplay is basically an honest version of ''VideoGame/IWannaBeTheGuy'' (i.e, all the NintendoHard challenge of the original, minus the infamous [[PlatformHell out-of-nowhere surprises]] and TrialAndErrorGameplay) with heavy {{Metroidvania}} elements. It uses an eight-character password for continuing (unless you're on one of the difficulty levels that don't let you continue). It boasts "over 550 rooms, more than 30 enemy types, and 8 bosses" standing between you and victory.

* CaptainErsatz: Amethyst Angel (the sixth boss) isn't just similar to [[{{Comicbook/GreenLantern}} Star Sapphire]], she's identical.

* {{Expy}}: Timmy is [[IWannaBeTheGuy The Kid]], sans cape.

* HarderThanHard: "Normal" gives you [[OneHitPointWonder one hit point]], infinite continues and access to passwords (think ''IWannaBeTheGuy''). Modes above that disable the password feature and give you a finite amount of continues, up to [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin "Unfair"]], which only grants you a single life (much like IWBTG's "Impossible").

* SpiritualSuccessor: To IWannaBeTheGuy.

* InCaseOfBossBattleBreakGlass: The FinalBoss battle with the Supermech.

* MyNameIsQuestionMarks: The three figures at the beginning of the game. [[spoiler:Their real names are revealed in the first game's true ending and the second game's intermission between the NoobCave and the main area to be Chet Donovan, Helga Kraftie, and Ivan Mekanovich.]]
