Line 2: [[File:sciencegirls_front_1556.png\|frame\|From Left to Right: Jennifer, Heather, Andrea, Missy and Nicole]] An'''''Science Girls''''' is an Indy Bishoujo RPG (with a few [[Visual Novel]] elements) by Spiky Caterpillar and Hanako Games. The six members of the science club have gathered to repel the alien invaders attacking their school. [[Hilarity Ensues]]. Available at ~~this finely crafted~~ [http://www.hanakogames.com/science.shtml this finely-crafted link]. ~~----~~ {{tropelist}} ~~This game provides examples of:~~ * [[Action Girl]]: The six members of the high school Science Club. * [[Alien Sky]] Line 13: * [[Breaking the Fourth Wall]]: {{quote\|'''Player''': What do we need to do before we explore another world? '''Missy''': To save the game? }} * [[Cool Gate]] * [[Curtains Match the Window]]: Played straight in the case of [[Tomboy\|Nicole]], [[Wrench Wench\|Heather]], and [[Playful Hacker\|Missy]]. * [[Cute Little Fangs]]: Andrea. * [[Death of a Thousand Cuts]]: Missy's Spam attack, which hits with several weak, unable-to-miss blows. Line 27: * [[Kill It with Fire]]/[[Grievous Harm with a Body]]/[[Shock and Awe]]: Three of Nicole's special attacks. * [[Lazy Backup]]: Averted; only your front row of girls can take actions during combat, but you can swap characters in and out of the front row at any time, and if a front-row girl is knocked out, a back-row girl will automatically step up to take her place. Only if the whole party goes down will you get a game over. * [[Level Up Fill Up]]: And you'll need it, if you're not playing on Easy -: healing items are rare. * [[Magic-Powered Pseudoscience]]: All the techniques of science, none of the bulky equipment. * [[Man-Eating Plant]]: Some of the enemies you fight qualify as this. * [[Money Spider]]: Averted. There's no currency at all. * [[Nerds Are Sexy]]: And how! * {{spoiler\|[[Never the Selves Shall Meet]]: Averted when the two Missys meet up in the wormhole. We never find out if the second Missy is from a different part of time or another universe or whatnot, though.}}. * [[Nintendo Hard]]: The original difficulty version of the game. Averted in the newer versions, as the difficulty is now adjustable. * [[Party in My Pocket]] * [[Plant Aliens]]: The invading aliens are plant-based. * [[Point Build System]]: As you level up, you're given points to allocate to different skills and stats. * [[Post -Climax Confrontation]]: {{spoiler\|After escaping the alien world, you still have to fight the alien boss after you return to the school.}}. * [[Preexisting Encounters]]: After a certain point, you'll be able to see enemies on the world map. ** {{spoiler\|Then it changes right back to random when you return to the school.}}. * [[Randomly Drops]]: Averted. You can only get items through exploration or after certain fights. * [[Relationship Values]]: They exist, but they've a minor impact on the game. {{spoiler\|Specifically, who gets kidnapped by the aliens before the final boss.}}. * [[Science Hero]]: Each of the members has her own specialty. [[Armchair Psychology\|The unnamed head of the science club specializes in psychology]], [[Combat Medic\|Jennifer in biology]], [[Kung Fu Wizard\|Nicole in physics]], [[Wrench Wench\|Heather in engineering]], [[Playful Hacker\|Missy in computer science]] [[Token ~~Mini-Moe~~Loli\|and Andrea in chemistry]]. * [[Shout-Out]]: * ~~[[Shout-Out]]:~~* To ''[[Nethack]]'' of all things. When you find Missy, she's playing it. Missy also compares the spacetime gradient difference in the wormhole to an [[Hitch Hikers Guide to The Galaxy\|improbability engine.]]. During the volcano section, the girls try using a safety rope and it burns up. Andrea grumbles [[You Have to Burn The Rope\|"Why did we have to burn the rope?"]] * [[Solid Gold Poop]]: {{spoiler\|The invading aliens are after our hair.}}. * [[Suspicious Videogame Generosity]]: The game is generally sparse on items, but you get a crapload of them from a nearby pit just before the boss fight with the tree creature. Slightly subverted because {{spoiler\|it's a [[Hopeless Boss Fight]] setting up the next part of the plot, so the items aren't actually useful}}. ** Slightly subverted because {{spoiler\|it's a [[Hopeless Boss Fight]] setting up the next part of the plot, so the items aren't actually useful.}} * [[Tech Points]]: You get one each level. They're used for upgrading abilities. * [[Timey-Wimey Ball]]: {{spoiler\|Things get weird during the wormhole ride back home, but nobody decides to worry about it in the end, figuring the universe can handle a little paradox or two.}}. * [[Title Drop]]: Just after the girls return to Earth. * [[Useless Useful Spell]]: Averted. Bosses are just as susceptible to status effects and stat decreases as any other foe.
