History VideoGame / PewDiePieLegendOfTheBrofist

''[=PewDiePie=]: Legend of the Brofist'' is a 2D side-scrolling action-adventure platform video game developed and published by [[UsefulNotes/{{Canada}} Canada]]-based indie development studio Outerminds, Inc., in collaboration with Website/YouTube's biggest mogul (let alone in the gaming scene) LetsPlay/PewDiePie (Felix Kjellberg).

The game was released for iOS and Android on September 24, 2015, but the fact that it wasn't free (costs $4.99) was subject to mass controversy, with Felix intervening to explain that it was only justified that the company who made the game get paid. Also, the game became the top-grossing paid game in the US App Store less than two hours after its release. The Microsoft Windows and OS X versions were released on December 10, 2015, with additional co-op mode.

* TwoferTokenMinority: In addition to being the only female, Mariza is also a non-{{LetsPlay}}er, unlike the others (though she does make YouTube videos as well).

* TheLegendOfX: '''Legend of''' Brofist.

* FlowerInHerHair: CutiePieMarzia in her default costume.

* TheLegendOfX

* CoolHat: JackSepticEye and [=CinnamonToastKen=]. The latter even gives him super smelling senses ([[GameplayAndStorySegregation even if he isn't wearing it]]) and turn him into a bear temporarily with ''Bear Hat Fusion''.

* [=CinnamonToastKen=] (Companions: corgis Benny and Jackie)

* DemBones: The skeleton mooks Xylo Bone [[BallisticBone will throw bones]] when they spot you. [[DestructibleProjectiles Their bone projectiles can be jumped on]][[GoombaSpringboard for extra height.]]

* MinimalistRun: In Pug Mode, you play as a dog with only one health and stripped of the use of powerups.

* AvengingTheVillain: Part of General Barroll's motivation is avenging his brother General Barrel.

* EverythingTryingToKillYou: And it's not just barrels. There are killer seals, ducks, Shamu (an orca) falling from the sky, exploding cows, TyrannosaurusRex (named [[FluffyTheTerrible Little Flower]]), werewolves, {{Winged Unicorn}}s, aliens, you name it.

* RollingAttack: Blue Sanic Barrels mainly use this method to attack.

** The Barrels busting into Felix's house suggests that they might got hold of Marzia, [[SubvertedTrope but she's sleeping in her bed by the time you get to her.]]

* TwoferTokenMinority: In addition to being the only female, Mariza is also a non-{{LetsPlay}}er like the others (though she does make YouTube videos as well).

* EyeBeam: Sam the Septic Eye

* LudicrousGibs/MadeOfExplodium: Any time someone or something is killed. In the case of barrels (and Tiny Box Tim), they become splinters.

* AdaptationalVillainy[=/=]AdaptationalBadass: In Felix's {{Lets Play}}s, barrels were merely obstacles he likes to pin blame on. In this game, they're a genuine antagonistic force with a desire to contain.

* [[IHaveYourWife I Have Your Fans]]: King Barrel to Felix.

* LoyalAnimalCompanion: All playable characters have them. They basically serve as two saves from instant death (unless you're falling into a bottomless pit).

* TakingTheBullet: If you're about to be killed, your companions will save you twice. Pitfalls and some attacks are {{One Hit Kill}}s regardless of companions, though.

** In the stage where you rescue [=JackSepticEye=], it shoots away rock pillars that blocks your path.

** [=PewDuckPie=]:

* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Marzia is the only female playable character…and isn't a {{LetsPlay}}er like the others (though she does make YouTube videos as well).

* DivingSave[=/=]TakingTheBullet: Your character's companions do this for you when you're about to die (except when falling down a {{Bottomless Pit}}). Some attacks are {{One Hit Kill}}s regardless of companions, though.

* EyeBeam: Sam the Septic Eye has this in the stage where you rescue [=JackSepticEye=], but only in that stage. His ''Keep An Eye On YOU'' turns him into a large version of Sam that shoots these and is also invincible for a time.

* FlowerInHerHair: CutiePieMarzia.

* DamselInDistress: In one of the Arctic stages, this happens to Shannon (a shark), who is tied up when you meet her. Felix lampshades that this should be impossible since barrels don't even have arms.
* DistressedDude: Jack when you first encounter him, having been kidnapped by the barrels to lure Felix. It's a ''Distressed'' '''''Duck''''' if you're playing as Jack.

* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Marzia is the only female playable character…and isn't a {{Let's Play}}er like the others (though she does make YouTube videos as well).

* [=PewDuckPie=]
