Trivia / Bossfight

Go To

  • Acting for Two: Liana plays pretty much every character.
  • Approval of God: Upon discovering this page, Liana devoted a whole video to going through it and Squeeing several times.
  • Creator Couple: Liana's husband Steven Kerzner operates the camera.
  • Harpo Does Something Funny: The little girl who Delores Fae enthusiastically grants wishes for was an improv comedian. So Liana had her improvise everything on camera while she remained in character as Sparklemuffin.
  • Never Work with Children or Animals: Subverted! Liana's cat Momo plays Mophisto, and she's said that the cat was relatively easy to get usable takes out of. Also subverted with the two child actors; the actor playing the Boy worked better off a script, while the girl Delores Fae grants wishes for was better at improvising (see above) - so Liana worked to their strengths.
  • Non-Singing Voice: Although Liana provides the singing for Princess Sparklemuffin and Ann Rearden, Maus Merryjest sings for SJW. He also composed "The Greatest Game of All".
  • Official Fan-Submitted Content: Patreon supporters and crowdfunding backers were given chances to contribute ideas to character designs, writing and story direction.
  • Real Life Writes the Hairstyle: Liana cut her hair to shoulder-length because of the amount of wigs the series required, and shorter hair fit under the wigs better.
  • Real Life Writes the Plot: Liana had polls on Patreon, allowing fans to vote on some story beats, such as whether Sparklemuffin would become evil, SJW would give up his cause or Beelzeboob would stop N.I.C.E.
  • Throw It In!:
    • The scenes of Serenity Sunflower and Zarkazaan streaming were filmed using Liana's patrons on a Zoom call, who were encouraged to send trollish messages to the group chat. Zarkazaan's "Marry you? That's harassment!" and "Your ears hurt my voice" were ad-libs from Liana based off some of the messages.
    • 'Glowy Box' was a Fan Nickname for the cube when it appeared in Lady Bits, and Liana at first had no idea what the comments were referring to. The name was incorporated into this series as a bit of Fanservice.
  • Troubled Production: The series went into production just as the COVID-19 pandemic happened, making filming even five episodes that much more difficult - due to restrictions and regulations (even with minimal cast and crew). The final episode in particular was a nightmare to edit, considering using Double Vision for so many characters meant double the watch hours of footage. As well as that, the majority of the finale happening on green screen only increased time; and the choice to give Zarkazaan a green dress meant that all her coverage had to be done via a separate blue screen. The series entered production March 2020 and the final episode didn't get uploaded until August 2021!
  • Tribute to Fido: Liana's own pets play the various animal characters.
  • What Could Have Been:
    • Zarkazaan's appearance was originally much different, but one of the backers pushed for the Excessive Evil Eyeshadow and she became a Hot Witch.
    • Ann Rearden was going to get an Expository Hairstyle Change as well, but they kept her hair as is, since it already looked appropriate for a musical theatre lover.
    • A spin-off game was not planned from the beginning, but they decided on it after the third episode.
