* DistressedDude: Prof becomes this in the DS version, being kidnapped by Dr. Von Blot at the start of the 4th world.


Added DiffLines:

* FirstPersonSnapshooter: The DS Version of ''de Blob 2'' features Chroma Cameras that need to be activated by pointing the [=DSi=] or 3DS system at various colored objects in the real world. Activating all 15 Chroma Cameras will complete the Chroma Crystal, allowing Blob to change color any time without needing color sources or Paintbots.
* ForInconveniencePressOne: Played with nonverbally. Dr. Von Blot calls up a INKT phone line after being met with a [[LoadsAndLoadsOfLoading stuck loading screen]] for his rocket. The Inky on the other end isn't helpful, advising him [[HaveYouTriedRebooting if he tried rebooting]] (when it's not even a computer) or suggesting that he takes a cup of coffee instead.

* PeoplesRepublicOfTyranny: Both Chroma City and Prisma City become this under I.N.K.T. rule- brutal dystopias where the Raydians are enslaved by the Inkies and everything is drained of color, with the emphasis on conformity and authoritarianism. Despite this, the Inkies have a PropagandaMachine that vainly tries to portray them as a benevolent force, to the point that their leader, Comrade Black, is called Prisma City's "democratically elected president" (even though he rigged the elections to win).

* HundredPercentCompletion: As well as the general requirements, obtaining all 100 awards in the 10 main levels unlocks a character bio section giving brief snippets on each of the main cast. The ''Long Live Color'' promo comic is basically a more in depth version of this [[AllThereInTheManual in print form]].
