Interface Screw: If your version of the game's out of date, the screen is flipped upside-down, with reminders on the top and bottom of the screen telling you to update.Kayin himself, in a Skype call on Gaiden's release, stated that the correlation was purposeful. In 1-3 Sweet Grave, a revisit to the beginning of IWBTG starts right where The Life-Ending Adventure starts its rendition of IWBTG, complete with some of the same traps, such as a suddenly-double-sided spike platform.The first two levels are based off the game as well. While the previous game had a lot of Shout Outs, Gaiden has a noticeable Bionic Commando vibe to it - the new protagonist is named The Lad (ala Ladd Spencer) and is colored green, and has a grappling hook.Despite how this might sound, it's almost never to your benefit. Hitbox Dissonance: The grappling hook often grabs nothing but air, but works anyway.Furthermore, this sounds like a Stealth Pun, as 'wana' means 'trap' in Japanese and 'guy' is pronounced the same way as 'gai' from 'Gaiden'. If you can read Japanese, you'll see it says 'WannaGuy'. Gratuitous Japanese: On the title screen.Grappling-Hook Pistol: The Lad can use one.Despite the use of the word 'Gaiden' in the title, it's not an example. Everything Trying to Kill You: Even the world map gets in on the action!.That's pretty merciful by Gaiden's standards this game will try to kill you on the world map, before you've even entered the first proper level.

Establishing Series Moment: The original IWBTG sets the tone with spiked walls from unexpected directions and fruits that are not only deadly, but fall up.
