Everything's Better with Penguins: Tux and Penny.However, with some skill you can hit enemies indirectly using obstacles as 'reflectors'. Meaning if you miss your target you have to wait until the iceball has disappeared (or hits by chance after bouncing off several obstacles) until you can throw the next. And the iceballs tend to ricochet for several seconds before disappearing. It lets you throw ice balls that can freeze many enemies in place and extinguish fire, but only one at a time. Difficult but Awesome: A single ice flower.Depth Perplexion: Played with in some bonus levels and fan-made troll levels.Since version 0.6.0 the Yeti boss does it as well. Happens to some enemies, too (depending on the way they die).Death Throws: Tux does it whenever he dies, while flailing his wings.Cute Bruiser/ Badass Adorable: Tux fits this, in a broader sense.Tux in general has shades of this in current versions, being a penguin who can't swim.Hitting the key combination for triggering the petrification at the right moment is difficult, however. Yeah, the earth flower also has other nice effects - it gives you an extra hitpoint (like the other flower powerups), and allows you to ' petrify' briefly and become invulnerable.

Plus you need a relatively even floor for it to be most effective - small platforms with bottomless pits are difficult to cross because you can't direct the light diagonally. Even in a partially lit scene it can be more debilitating than useful because the bright light cone impairs perception of things outside of it. Obviously, that lamp is effectless in a fully lit environment. Crippling Overspecialization: The earth flower is really useful in dark underground levels, as it gives Tux a 'safety helmet' equipped with a little lamp.Cranium Ride: Ice crushers and their Forest World reskins.However, there is one type of block which averts this trope because it melts as soon as Tux touches it. Most ice tiles and blocks survive being hit by fireballs, struck by (action) bomb explosions or walked over by sentinent fire.Also when he has a powerup and falls into a non-bottomless Lava Pit, he will not die instantly but instead take a hit, giving the player a chance to get out alive (if the pit is shallow enough otherwise Tux will subsequently die). Convection Schmocvection: In some levels Tux can stand on platforms less than one tile above a lava surface without getting hurt.These are mostly distinguishable by their different colors. Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Some enemies exist in 'smart' and 'dumb' varieties (the former being auto-turning enemies while the latter fall off platforms).

Take the maze of Level C-4 from Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, multiply its length and add a freaking fast auto-scroll effect to it, and what you will get is roughly comparable to Bonus Island II: Think fast, or die.These levels tend to cluster in the lower right of the island. Incubator Island (actually a set of incompletely implemented levels thought for testing) has a few very hard levels that require many nigh-impossible jumps and dodging of a bunch of Goddamned Bats and Demonic Spiders.(And with help of the level editor, the users can also create their own levels, which will be kind-of bonus levels in the game.) Brutal Bonus Level: There are many bonus levels which range from very easy to freaking hard.Big Bad: Nolok has captured Tux's girlfriend Penny and forces him on a long and dangerous adventure to get her back.Let's face it, eleven fire flowers aren't much more powerful than ten. Collecting powerups of the same type above a certain limit.However, with multiple air flowers things get more awesome, as you can hover for a longer time. Until you get used to the timing, this can cause players to miss platforms they would have hit without the powerup. And it lets you jump a bit higher and hover briefly as you fall. It lets you move faster, which is not always a good thing. The air flower, if you collect a single one.

In levels requiring this you are better off as Small Tux. However, it's not so good if you have to make wide and precise jumps between small platforms.

Awesome But Impractical: Being Big Tux is often a good thing, as this gives you a second hitpoint.

Artificial Stupidity: The most basic enemies will walk off platforms and into spikes and lava, causing their own demise.

Short fuse is special as its explosion does not deal damage but instead knocks the player back, potentially into deadly pits or obstacles.

Action Bomb: There are different types of enemies which explode when hit, such as Mr.
