We make Tropes! Hello!
- Disaster Dominoes: Subverted; the flooding of their studio didn't do much to hamper the team though it was a bit of a hassle.
- Foreshadowing: This was how their post Joe Danger games were advertised. It's best exemplified at the end of their "behind-the-scenes" video for Joe Danger 2: The Movie:"Now Joe Danger 2 releases, and Hello Games moves on to something new...
