* TokenHuman: It's unclear whether there are any other humans in this setting. You're on the Zedd planet but they clearly take prisoners from anyone who happens to violate their airspace. You are shown to be a human in the death screen and the Zeddite who belittles you throughout the game refers to you as human, so we know for certain you are supposed to be from Earth. The only other vaguely described character in the game is just has the characteristics of being big and having bad teeth. He could be an alien of some type as well.

* {{Narm}}: This game is chock-full of it, especially with how hammy the Zeddite who talks to you throughout the game is.

* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids: The primary [[StealthPun vehicle]] for selling this violent game about a cruel alien society that forces prisoners to kill each other in gladiatoral combat was... Scholastic book fairs? Most PC games sold through them were at least somewhat educational but Bumper Wars is a very straightforward vehicle combat game based in a fictional (and incredibly bleak) universe.

Added DiffLines:

* ArtStyleClash: All pickups in the game are represented by 2D shapes with a picture of what you get on them except for the power cells which are a 3D object. Granted they are a unique pickup as they refill your energy, provide a defensive shield, and restore some health but it still feels odd that they are the only pickup with a 3D model.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: There are only 5 songs in the game (6 if you count the one that plays during the credits), and they're all awesome.
