Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg: Difference between revisions

Sounds cute, at least before you take into account the massive amount of [[Nightmare Fuel|possibly traumatic material]]. The [[Big Bad]] and his cronies? [[Ravens and Crows|Crows]] who want to take over the world by causing endless night. As [[Nightmare Fuel]] goes, none of this sounds threatening, but boss fights bring a whole new level of creepy. Most of these bosses, and some notable levels, are also [[Surprise Difficulty|much harder]] than most people would have a right to expect.

 

 

----

* [[Character Name and The Noun Phrase]]

* [[Circus of Fear]]: The Circus Park during the night.

* [[Color-Coded Elements]]

** '''{{color|#ee1100|Fire}}'''

* [[Dungeon Bypass]]: Possible in one mission in Blizzard Castle. There's a huge, nasty slide, full of spikes, jumps, narrow whip turns, and one "threading the needle" segment where you are pretty much guaranteed to lose your egg (and thus a life) the first time through. Looks vicious... Unless you snoop around the nearby area, and find an egg containing a [[Jet Pack]] that lets you hover indefinitely. Hatch the egg, accquire the item, and you can lazily float past the entire slide, and on to the next area of the level.

* [[Egg McGuffin]]

* [[Escort Mission]]: Once per world (except for the last) you must hatch a golden egg, but it must be protected and be carted through most of the level you do it in.

* [[Everything's Better With Indexes|Everythings Better with EVERYTHING]]

* [[Locked Door]]: Its most likely that you will find these in every single mission. They're either opened by pressing an switch button (moat likely to be hidden), or defeating all crows on screen.

* [[Mini Boss]]: The Snake Crow, and the Bone Dinosaurs that you fight before Topo.

* [[Mirror Monster]]: Saltim is one, he hides in the mirror and even tries to suck you in.

* [[Mirror World]]: Saltim runs around in his mirror world and jumps in and out while he fights you.

* [[Sand Is Water]]: In the Sandy Ruin.

* [[Shifting Sand Land]]: Sand Ruin, with [[Did Not Do the Research|Inca-like pyramids instead]]

* [[Slasher Smile]]: The crows seem to have this, as most enemies have a massive teeth showing smile almost all the time, it's most noticeable on the bosses, if only for the harder ones as they would kill you while smiling constantly.

* [[The Smurfette Principle]]: Out of the four kids, Rolly is the only girl, and out of the seven Elders, Ponee is the only hen ([[Fridge Logic|Then why does she crow]]?).

* [[Snap Back]]: By the end of the game, the kids are supposed to go back ot the human world, however during the post-story missions, Billy and his friends are back in morning land wearing their respective suits and its like nothing happened.

* [[Weapons That Suck]]: Saltims mirrors are these, they can be used to suck in Billy, and trap him, which then Saltim will then give a big punch to the mirror, damaging Billy, sending him out of the mirror.

* [[Whale Egg]]: All over the place, and even [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshaded]] by one of the chicks wondering who or what laid them in the first place.

* [[Widget Series]]
