Added DiffLines:

* NintendoHard: 6 stages, 2 lives (only accessible after finishing the first two stages), ridiculously hard 4th stage boss, time-based ending for the final battle, very few healing items, no save system, and the amazing idea that someone had to make you '''take damage''' every time your character punched a non-enemy object, and you were more or less forced to destroy several of them over the course of the game to proceed, sacrificing a good chunk of your health in process. Oh, and the first stage ends with a jump that must be spot on.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: The game's heavy metal soundtrack is often considered to be one of the best among Sega Genesis games, especially the fact that it screams 90s.

Up To Eleven is a defunct trope


** Taken UpToEleven in the final boss, where they are produced whenever you use the trick to cause massive damage to said boss. Since you need to defeat all of them, it can either ''[[KaizoTrap kill you after you beat the boss]]'' or cause you to get the bad ending if you're too slow.

* ThatOneBoss: [[spoiler: Kung-Fung]] has longer reach than you, and a ranged attack that requires split-second timing to avoid. If you don't know [[HoistByHisOwnPetard his secret weakness]], you won't be able to beat him.

Mortus's doomsday device is blown into smithereens, but Sketch's comic is still intact and he and Alissa are able to escape back to the real world. Sketch publishes the comic and it becomes a best seller while Alissa becomes Chief of Security.]]

Added DiffLines:

* TearJerker: The bad ending. [[spoiler:Mortus is gone, but so is Alissa, having drowned in rocket fuel while Sketch was battling Mortus. Sketch's comic is also destroyed, forcing Sketch to [[HereWeGoAgain re-draw the comic and re-live his adventure again to save her.]]]]
