"FLIPPY!"
"This isn't just a game, something big is coming. When it's over, you will know TRUE TERROR!"
- FI Creepybloom, part 10
Everything Is Broken (28/1/2012 – present), previously known as HTF+, is a horror Crossover fan animated YouTube series created by ChaoChao0071 (Rhianna Dearston). It revolves around Flippy and other characters of Happy Tree Friends meeting mainly with My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic fan horror games and Creepypastas by playing said games, which soon start manifesting into their reality to kill them. Amnesia: The Dark Descent also features. Works the series has crossed over are the following:

Everything Is Broken provides examples of:

  • Anxiety Dreams: Flippy dreams about killing his friend in part 10.
  • Art Evolution: At the beginning the series seems to be amateur but as it progresses the animation becomes smoother.
  • Breaking the Fourth Wall:
    • When Flippy plays Luna Game he starts to scream, Flaky hears him from the other room and holds up a sign reading "Should I ask?" to the audience in part 1.
    • The Author Avatar holds up a sign reading "Thought I should break the fourth wall before dying" in part 12.
  • Canon Welding: Parts 1 – 3 were originally titled Luna Game In A Nutshell and parts 4 – 6 Amnesia In A Nutshell.

Since then she is good friends with Flippy who visits him for film nights.

  • Dramatic Irony: In part 13 Rainbow Dash sees Scootaloo talking with RF Rainbow Dash, she does not understand what is happening but if the viewer have read RF then it is obvious.
Scootaloo: I thought you loved me!
RF Rainbow Dash: I did love you! I tried so hard for you! In hopes you would pass your test! You had it in you, kid. It was up to you to save yourself!
  • Even Evil Has Standards: FI Creepybloom is a murderous cannibal but when Nutty calls her on a phone in part 13 to bring him "bathroom candy" she refuses because she thinks it "sounds illegal".
  • Evil Counterpart: In part 9 it turns out all the evil ponies are actually seperate entities from the originals.
    • FI Creepybloom is pretty much an eviler personality of LG Creepybloom who was already a version of Applebloom, but later she turned to the good side in part 9.
  • Formula-Breaking Episode: It is an animated series, but the episode "No Plan" is actually an Audio Play.

    • In part 9 Zalgo Pie is also shown to communicate with subtitles on the screen to Flippy.
  • Heel–Face Turn: In part 9 LG Creepybloom only wanted to cook Flippy into a cupcake so she could earn her cutie mark. But she realized having a cutie mark for murder does not seem to be a good look on her, so she decided to help Flippy to escape.

  • Minion with an F in Evil: Zalgo Pie orders LG Creepybloom to capture Flippy when they break into his house. LG Creepybloom finds a cleaver on a tool holder but instead of using it to harm Flippy, she adjusts it on the holder. She also puts a spider on Flippy's shoulder to scare him, which obviously doesn't work.

  • Shout-Out:
  • Synchronization: In part 14, FI Creepybloom tells LG Creepybloom whatever feeling happens to one of them, the same will happen to the other, as long as they stay in the same universe. FI Creepybloom and Zalgo Pie were the ones who saved LG Creepybloom from drowning only because the same thing would have happened to FI Creepybloom.
  • Taking the Bullet: Zalgo Pie tries to kill LG Creepybloom with an axe but Flippy steps inbetween them in part 9.
